Cyber-Bullying Trial Begins

I turned on the news and they started playing the 911 call from Megan's mom. So heartbreaking.

I hope they slam her with every charge they can. What she did was disgusting. Rest in Peace Megan

What this woman did was sick. Her daughter went too far yes, but look at the example she had! This woman is in her 30's I believe, way old enough to know better. The fact that she would deliberately lie and torment this young girl just because she was trying to get back at her for some issue between the girl and her daughter....it's sick. And yes, if you kill yourself it is ultimately your decision, but she was pushed into an agitated mental state because of this woman! There's no guarantee that she won't have committed suicide over something else, but there's also no guarantee that she wouldn't have gotten help and been just fine. This woman deserves to have the book thrown at her!

That Mom and her daughter should both be sent to cold Alaska to pump oil without pay at all (we would lower our cost of Gas to 10 cents a gallon if we started sending cyber bullies and perverts to cold Alaska to pump oil without any pay, and make them live on bread and water as well). And if that Mom and her daughter hate working for free, tough. And if you think I am suggesting formation of a Gulag in Alaska, yes I am doing that actually, cyber bullies will be too busy cracking their bones working in the Gulag that they will never be able to do the deed again.

Actually, noshocker, in this case the mother was deliberately helping her own daughter lead this girl on to harass her. In earlier articles on this case, other people who knew about it say that the mother invented this account specifically to punish Megan for a fight between her and her daughter, and that she bragged about it to other people. The girls knew each other, and I don't think it's far-fetched to suppose that the daughter and the mother knew about Megan's problems-- they were neighbors. Even if they didn't, that's incredibly irresponsible behavior for an adult who's far more emotionally mature than the kid they're jerking around, and who knows what buttons to push. After getting a message like the last one Megan sent, any normal human being would call her parents or 911, probably both. It's sick all around.

Well, no matter what, she still pretended to be someone she wasn't one the Internet and purposely targeted a 13 year old girl and that did push the girl over the edge.

i have to say, it doesn't seem likely that lori would just "know" that megan was depressed and suicidal and um, boy-crazy...yeah, most girls are boy-crazy anyway. and most parents didn't even know their kids were suicidal...until it was too late... she was probably just screwing around, wasting her time like any loser on the internet would and didn't think she would do any harm. i highly doubt she thot it would be funny to see if megan would kill herself or not. but that was definently irresponsible of her and while i feel bad for megan's family, it's not like lori murdered megan and this was megan's choice. no one forced her into it. alot of ppl have told me over the internet that i was stupid, useless, and that the world would be better off without me...hell, sumtimes i tell myself that [hah], but i would never kill myself. while lori def is to take blame, i think megan [phsycically and mentally] had the most to with her own death.

wow i hope lori goes in for life

It is about time people started taking bullying and especially cyber bullying serious. Too many people haave been damaged by this sort of thing. Hopefully Megan will get justice

Same thing as murder, IMO.

Oh my gosh...that is way past just being a mean set of people.
