"A federal grand jury issued an indictment against a woman in Missouri accused of creating a fake MySpace page to bully a 13-year-old girl. The girl committed suicide as a result of the bullying.

Lori Drew was indicted this morning in Los Angeles on federal charges for fraudulently using an account on MySpace. The indictment charges Drew in four counts -- one count for conspiracy and three counts "for accessing protected computers without authorization to obtain information to inflict emotional distress," according to a press release. The latter charge relates to the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act.

If convicted on all four counts, Drew could face up to 20 years in federal prison.

"This adult woman allegedly used the internet to target a young teenage girl, with horrendous ramifications," said United States Attorney Thomas P. O'Brien. "After a thorough investigation, we have charged Ms. Drew with criminally accessing MySpace and violating rules established to protect young, vulnerable

people. Any adult who uses the internet or a social-gathering website to bully or harass another person, particularly a young teenage girl, needs to realize that their actions can have serious consequences."

Drew's co-conspirators include her daughter and another teenager, Ashley Grills, who helped set up the MySpace account and sent comments to Megan Meier that contributed to her suicide. It was reported earlier this year that Grills was given immunity for her cooperation with the investigation...."

I remember this story when it first came out. That mother used her daughters old friendship with The dead girl to get information on her when her daughter wanted some kind of revenge after their friendship failed.I hope they nail her to the wall. How do you raise your own child and then do this to another?
