More info:
Hacktivist group Anonymous has reportedly tracked down the man who bullied Amanda Todd, a 15-year-old Canadian girl who committed suicide after suffering torment that led to depression and anxiety.
Anonymous named Todd's alleged bully on Monday in a post on Pastebin.com. The accusers allege that the man who targeted Todd, made her flash him and then turned her life into a living nightmare is a 30-year-old from New Westminster, British Columbia. The post describes him as the man who "extorted amanda todd for pictures. This is the pedophile that social engineered Amanda Todd into supplying him nude pictures."
Anonymous also revealed his address.
Vice magazine posted information that reportedly further links Todd to the alleged bully, including Google Map screenshots of his house, his Facebook profile, chat conversations and screenshots from a "jailbait" website account supposedly tied to the man.
Vice reports that Anonymous got involved in tracking down Todd's bully after nude autopsy photos of deceased Amanda Todd leaked online.
Anonymous commented on its involvement in finding those linked to Todd's suicide.
“We generally don’t like to deal with police first hand but were compelled to put our skills to good use protecting kids,” read an email sent by Anonymous to Canada's CTV News. “Ironically we have some good people in Vancouver who brought this to our admin’s attention. It’s a very sad story that affects all of us.”
The man who Anonymous identified as Todd's bully appeared in court on Monday on charges of sexual assault and sexual interference with a minor, unrelated to Todd, CTV reported. The man claims he was Todd's friend and pointed the finger at a New York man who was harassing her.
Todd, who lived in Coquitlam, B.C., an area by Vancouver, committed suicide last Wednesday. In early September, she posted a YouTube video detailing her struggle with bullying, self-harm and suicide attempts.
The torment began, according to Todd's YouTube video, after she flashed a man online when she was in seventh grade. One year later, she said, he tracked her down on Facebook and forwarded her topless photo to everyone. She was bullied at each school she went to, beat up by angry girls and attempted to kill herself by drinking bleach.
Todd's family is distraught by her passing, but her father finds solace in the fact that his daughter now has some peace.
“She was very courageous and I really love that she made that video,” her father Norm told the Vancouver Sun. “She told me why she made it — she wanted to send a message out so that it wouldn’t happen to someone else, so no one would have to go through what she went through [...] She did that on her own and her message is being delivered now. It makes me happy that her voice is still alive and being heard."
The two had planned to get tattoos together. Amanda wanted hers to read "Stay Strong" on her arm. Norm plans to get the "Stay Strong" tattoo for his daughter, according to the Sun.

This statement right here is very telling of the lack of parenting:
"I have nobody. I need someone. My name is Amanda Todd."
I was the new fat kid that was picked on all the time back at that age, because we moved often. Because of that I only had 1 or 2 friends at any given time, if any, but I always came home to loving parents, and never felt "all alone."

Originally posted by Treasure Chest View PostIt's sad, but it really doesn't sound like the classic case of bullying. It sounds more like she was let loose completely unsupervised and she made a long string of bad decisions for attention and "love." She was cam whoring in 7th grade, having sex with another girl's boyfriend in 8th or 9th grade? Did she expect to earn the respect of her peers?
I'm not saying that the girlfriend showing up with a posse of 15 girls is acceptable, but did she really not expect repercussions after knowingly sleeping with a guy with a girlfriend? "I thought he liked me" is not a valid excuse for a bad decision. Teenage boys "like" anything with a vagina.
Where were her parents? The real tragedy is that her family just moved her to a different school, rather than getting her the psychological help she needed--which was more than counseling and antidepressants.
I never understood why people want to take it out on the person their significant other slept with. I wouldn't be mad at anyone but my whore girlfriend or wife if she cheated.

As a parent I feel really bad for the family and am sympathetic to the girl.
BUT, as a kid my parents were in the military and I moved around alot. I got bullied plenty and didnt kill myself.....
Not to sound like an ass, but the US politically correct society that we live in is just breeding our future generations for a socialist ran country.
Not to say im for kids picking on each other to the point of suicide, all I mean is people get there feelings hurt way too easy these daysOriginally posted by soapi can fix anything from a broken tractor to an aching pussy!!!

Yeah, the parents deserve a lot of the blame here. If that was my daughter I'd do whatever it took to make things right for her and there's not a chance in hell the situation would have ever gotten to the point Amanda Todd's did. Kids do stupid things, and if instead of being there to guide and love them you just neglect them this is what can happen.
And how the fuck are there post-death nudes of her on the internet? That's fucked up and whoever took those and put them on the internet should face criminal charges.

Originally posted by Treasure Chest View PostYeah, I don't either. OTOH, she took the fall for him "because she thought he liked her," and told the girl that she 1) knew he had a girlfriend and 2) hooking up was all her idea...blah blah blah, and teenage girls aren't known for their sanity and cool-headedness.
