The boys in question are now 17 and 18, except we don’t know their ages at the time this occurred, or whether she was 14 or 15. I don’t see how either would face any jail time. In regards to the girls involved, various reports stated she was called a “slut” etc face to face, and they probably wrote even nastier things about her online.

Do people really think that’s abnormal behavior? Welcome to high school, where kids fight, and everyone hates the freshmeat. I have to wonder whether or not we are approaching the point, where Ms. Prince’s behavior should be socially accepted for the sake of political correctness.

Her suicide is tragic, but speaks to an entirely different condition.
I for one, am going to wait to hear the other side, before rushing to a “Duke-like” prosecurtorial edict.

It never ceases to amaze me how hard women are on one another. It’s fortunate that Jesus didn’t ask a woman to cast the first stone, or that story would have had a very different ending.

Yes, welcome to High school - Day prison for anyone who commits the crime of being teen-aged. Since society forces kids to be locked up in these institution of learning, it has a certain duty to make sure they are safe. We can’t just wash our hands and say “kids will be kids.”

It was pretty inconsiderate of the little slut to kill herself and ruin everyone’s prom, wasn’t it.
