Nine Massachusetts teenagers have been "with involvement in a months-long campaign of bullying" that resulted in the suicide of 15-year-old Phoebe Prince last January as reported by CNN:
Phoebe Prince's body was found hanging in the stairway leading to her family's second-floor apartment in South Hadley, Northwestern District Attorney Elizabeth D. Scheibel told reporters in the western Massachusetts town of Northampton. "It appears that Phoebe's death on January 14 followed a torturous day for her when she was subjected to verbal harassment and physical abuse," she said. * * * The harassment that day, by one male and two females, "appears to have been motivated by the group's displeasure with Phoebe's brief dating relationship with a male student that had ended six weeks earlier," she said. But that day's events were not isolated; they "were the culmination of a nearly three-month campaign of verbally abusive, assaultive behavior and threats of physical harm toward Phoebe on school grounds by several South Hadley students," Scheibel added.
Two of the defendants -- Sean Mulveyhill and Austin Renaud -- have been charged with statutory rape.

thats so sick...didnt any adults notice this? how sad.
At the link the reporter states the teachers were aware of the bulling, but will not be hold accountable at all
TWO charged with statutory rape? That poor girl.
Government employees are never held accountable. Its better than being a Stone Cutter.
A fifteen year old girl sleeps with two guys over 16? Hardly a revelation.
And another thing....it's certainly very sad that the girl's dead but one must remember that this *is* Massachusetts....home of every kind of "victimhood" imaginable and a state in which every single one of our counties has a RAT District Attorney.So,although I know little about this case,one question I'd ask myself is...just how emotionally stable *was* this girl in general? Could some kind of basic instability in the girl have played any role here? Knowing this state as well as I do I wouldn't bet my last nickel that there's not some degree of a "Nifong factor" involved.
Did ‘Phoebe’ have a father in the home? It mentions her ‘family’ but not a Dad.
IMHO, so many problems in society could be nipped in the bud if there was a strong father figure who, A) is telling his daughter she is lovely, worthy and safe in his care on a DAILY basis and...B) said ‘Dad’ would kick some serious @ss of the kids and the parents of the kids that DARE to mess with his daughter.
But, that’s just me. I have a wonderful Dad. And that has made ALL the difference in my life.
Thanks again, NOW Hags! Thanks again, LibTards! Thanks again Femi-Nazis...all who think that MEN are not VITAL to a safe, secure and functional Society.
(OK. I’m done. This stuff just ENRAGES me!)

thats such a shame
In general, it’s the “blue” states that have 18 as age of consent and no “Romeo and Juliette” exceptions. (Oddly it fits with the left’s general refusal to deal with the world as it is, and imagination that it can remake it anyway they want it.)
Denial. Deep seated denial and unwillingness to do anything.
