She did it, she knew she did it, knew what she was doing, and a 13 year old is dead. I hope the judge sends her to prison.
If you kill yourself because something on the internet bothered you, maybe you shouldn't have used the internet to begin with.
If you, an adult, deliberately screw with the head of a 12-13 year old neighbor, that you KNOW has psychological issues, and finish off the mindfuck telling them the world would be a better place without them, and they actually do something, you think you aren't responsible? If you think that, you've forfeited any claim to being human.
If i was this kids parents, i'd feel pretty stupid for not monitoring their networking. If your kid has psychological issues like this its plain irresponsible. RE: Jury convicts mom of lesser charges in online hoax |
