Megan




In Los Angeles, there lived a thirteen year old girl who had a myspace account. She was friends with another girl at school, whose mother also had a myspace account, except she used this account for very bad reasons. Lori Drew, the mother, Pretended that she was a teenage guy, and was talking to Megan on myspace when she started insulting Megan for no reason. Drew was unprovoked but just started telling Megan that the world would be a better place without her. Sadly soon after this, when Megan's mother knocked on her bedroom door, their was no answer, Megan had committed suicide. Lori Drew went to court, where she was only found guilty of two misdeameanor charges. It was said that she had the right of freedom of speech when talking to Megan and did not reiceive a felony charge for her atrocious actions. I strongly disagree with this statement, I believe that she should go to jail for a very long time on a felony charge. She wasn't using free speech, she knew she was talking to a minor and she caused that minor's death.
