The girls who primarily conducted this campaign against her have, in my opinion, committed involuntary manslaughter. Of course, the legislature should adopt a law concerning bullying. “If a person, in response to bullying, kills himself or herself, the person or persons executing the bullying are guilty of a felony punishable the same as someone convicted of involuntary manslaughter.”

Her parents are very kind-hearted from reading this article. Personally, I think the bullies need to be prosecuted. Put them in prison and see how they handle it. They forced this young, beautiful girl to take her life. My daughter was bullied in junior high when we relocated. In high school, she still remembered the kids who bullied her. Somehow, we made it through. I wish Rachel would have made it through it. Please press charges against these evil people. Bless Rachel and her family. A truly heartbreaking story.

But it’s not that way anymore. For kids that are being bullied, it now follows them home and everywhere because so much of the bullying happens online. Lots of kids turn to drastic measures to either protect themselves or hurt themselves. It is so tragic.
