Are you happy now, Mrs Petkov? Girl, 9, with Huntington's dies (Shortened Title)
Daily Mail UK ^ | 1/12/2012 | Mail Online

A nine-year-old girl whose tragic battle with Huntington's disease captured the nation’s sympathy after she was taunted about her suffering on Facebook by a neighbour died last night.

Kathleen Edward, of Wyandotte, Michigan, is expected to be buried at a memorial garden in nearby town Livonia next to her late mother Laura Edward, 24, who also died of the brain disorder, in 2009.

The girl hit the headlines 15 months ago when Jennifer Petkov, a neighbour of her grandmother Rebecca Rose, posted nasty images on Facebook that made fun of both Kathleen and Mrs Edward.

My sister married into a family with HD. Her FIL, BIL and husband have all died of HD and now her two sons have it.

My heart bleeds for her.

This child dying of HD at such a young age is very unusual.

Prayers to the family, who has been through too much. As for the tormenting bitch who hounded the poor girl to her death, I hope she gets lots of hate mail and run out of town. Maybe her husband will divorce her.

She is one of those people who simply were born without a soul. I believe the politically incorrect word is ‘evil’.

And may the little girl rest in peace and God avenge her torment at the last day.

Of course this was after the “people” on 4chan got word of this and abused the Petkov’s to the point that the husband went onto Fox2 here in Detroit, begging for all of it to stop.

There are a bunch of stories about this bitc# being arrested for a number of different things, since then, why isn’t she in jail?
She keeps getting probation and even that is suspended after a time.
She is one sick woman.

Un####ing believable. Whether they’re satanists or not, I hope he’s keeping a hot corner for people who do things like this.
