Neighbors create fake MySpace profile of cute nonthreatening boy to befriend and then torment their teen daughter's estranged 13 yr-old friend, driving her to suicide. OK, no one could have predicted the girl would off herself, but adults doing this? [:(!] [xx(]

I'll throw them in the year-end poll with the rest of the nominees but I have to admit to being a little conflicted. On the one hand, it was definitely a shitty thing for them to do (but NOT criminal).

On the other hand, it's not like anyone who would kill themselves over something so trivial would have ever contributed anything worthwhile to society and it's hard to feel sorry for anyone that weak.

Plus, I'd be willing to make a huge bet that there's a lot more to this story than what's being told.

When we do the end of year poll, I will vote for the parents of a feral child. I watched it on tv last night. The father locked his daughter in her room for 13 years. She slept in a chicken wire cage (for 13 years), and spent her days strapped to a potty chair.Nobody in the house was allowed to speak to her..ever. Before he could be arrested the father blew his own head off with a shot gun.

<p align="justify">From a glance, it seems like something really really horrible to do and that they're responsible for the girl snuffing herself, but I remember doing worse things to bully other kids when I was a kid. It's just pathetic when an adult is the one doing the bullying.
