Woman Indicted in MySpace Suicide Case

Posted by admin on May 16th, 2008 filed in cyberbullying, law enforcement

This article details how a federal grand jury indicted a Missouri woman accused of using a phony online identity to trick and taunt a 13-year-old girl, who committed suicide in response to the cyber-bullying.

 “After a few weeks of chatting, “Josh Evans” began to send Megan nasty messages, via the MySpace account, ending with one that suggested “the world would be a better place” without her. Megan, believing she had been rejected by “Josh,” committed suicide in her home. “

 I’m interested to see how this will end up.
