"Meier hanged herself in October 2006, shortly after receiving a message from "Josh" saying amongst other things that he had no interest in a romantic relationship with her and would be better off without her."

No, that's not what was said. IIRC, the exact words to Megan were: THE WORLD would be better off without her (Megan). That's what all the news reports quoted at the time. Big difference. Yahoo News, as usual, screws it up and mangles the truth.

Um, it’s brietbart.com, not yahoo. Sorry Mr. Yang, lol.

What is the mentality of a 49 year old woman that gets her “jollys” messing with kids online?

I couldnt talk to a 16 year old for 2 minutes without being bored out of my mind.

[southern rock]

This woman isnt guilty of a damn thing except using the internet. Alot of prosecutors seem to have gone nuts lately. They have become power hungry, oportunistic, fame seeking, far-reaching bullies, trying to railroad people into the slammer for thier careerist goals.

Conspiracy? Who’d she conspire with?

Lori Drew is a seriously disturbed and dangerous woman. She needs to spend a few decades in a low-cost, state-run mental institution, given thorazine and made to sleep in a padded room.

[djf]

Why is what she did any different from yelling “Fire!” in a theatre?
It’s not. And to add insult to injury, this was an intentional, aggressive act.
Put the B*otch in a room for ten minutes with the friends and family of the girl.

Ain’t hardly a day goes by when I don’t hear something about somebody “taking responsibility...”

I want this sick bitch Lori Drew to rot in jail.

When I was searching for the background article, I stumbled on an interview with Lori Drew regarding harassment she received when her and her husband's cell phone numbers were leaked. I guess they started getting hundreds of calls and harassing voicemails and text messages.

I thought this part was interesting:

Q: What types of messages did people leave?

"The voice and text messages were very similar to what Aubry was showing on the news. Examples: a) Go kill yourself b) Murderer c) I can only hope your family name is abused and embarrassed publicly as you deserve. d) God is watching ur every move. Ur a sinner and u will go to hell 2/2 because that's exactly wat u deserve."

Q: What impact did this have on you and your family?

"It was extremely disruptive and we were concerned about whether this would escalate to behavior that would jeopardize the safety of our family. This was going on at the same time as the companies I did business with were also being harassed, so I was also concerned about their well being."

"Accessing Protected Computers Without Authorization"

These are federal felony charges for 'lying to the MySpace computer servers'.

Do you understand? And do you understand what this could mean?

[rrrod]

How about they hang the woman, the editor and the reporter?

[Gay State Conservative]

...conspiracy to inflict emotional distress...

What the heck is that??? Is this a law in all states? If that's the case I'm gonna be bringing legal actions against a couple of my former girlfriends.What a silly law!

The Drew family's home is on the market right now. I wonder who is going to buy from them? Where do they move to? Why move now?
