Samantha Kelly

0 comments
Samantha Kelly has become the latest tragic victim of the cyberbullying epidemic that seems to be sweeping the nation. The 14-year-old girl’s mother, June Justice, filed a sexual assault complaint about an 18-year-old, Joseph Tarnopolski, earlier this year, and as soon as word got out, Samantha Kelly was mercilessly taunted by her classmates.

The bullying, both in person and online, became so bad that Kelly hung herself earlier this week. The prosecutor in the case has now dropped charges because the girl is no longer around to testify.

But even after this tragedy, Kelly’s family is still being harrassed! A Facebook page set up in her memory has been filled with taunts and cruel comments.
