Hannah Smith, 14, from Lutterworth, Leicestershire, England, hung herself in her bedroom on August 3rd, 2013. Her body...discovered by her older sister.
In the weeks leading up to her death, Hannah had been subjected to cruel taunts and insults about her weight and a family death on Ask.fm, a question-and-answer social networking site that allows anonymous participation. Bullies on Ask.fm urged her to drink bleach and cut herself.
According to Hannah’s father, she went to Ask.fm only to find advice on the skin condition, eczema.
After, Hannah’s father found a note that read:
“As I sit here day by day I wonder if it’s going to get better. I want to die, I want to be free. I can’t live like this any more. I’m not happy”.
Following the suicide, Hannah’s older sister, Jo, described how, just days after discovering her younger sister’s body, she started receiving abusive messages on Facebook mocking her loss and blaming her grieving father’s parenting skills for the tragic death.
Thats terrible, how could someone be so mean to an individual? I know I couldn't do it. I have a younger brother and younger sister and if I ever heard anything about them being bullied I would put a stop to it real quick. I don't believe in that being cruel to one another.
ReplyDeleteWhere did you get the information at? I would like to read some more of these, but also telling why they killed themself.
ReplyDeleteI just google bully cases and i tell everything so there is never really anything else to read
DeleteThat is mean and not called for. Some people these days just don't understand what things like that do to people. I bet if somebody said that to them or talk a certain way to them they would feel how the person they did the samething to feel. It wouldn't feel to great. This needs to stop really. It just isn't right.
