The fact that there was no law that covered this makes what she did no less reprehensible. There are people in the world who don't need laws to make them honorable. And those people would not have done something like this. But this low life bottom feeder is not an honorable person.
Have I said there shouldn't be a law regarding this?

Have I said that what the woman did isn't reprehensible?

As always, you've been a failure at making a point...

Let's just say you are out on the lake in front of my house (God forbid that you ever should be), and you deliberately swamp a boat with the wake from your own, and someone dies, you would be charged with second degree murder. You are responsible for the water waves that your boat creates.
Did the case at hand happen in Kentucky?

Again, you've been a pathetic failure at making a point...

Likewise, if you are on the internet doing the same thing with words, you should be responsible when someone dies.
Hardly the same thing...

A 13 year old is too young to drink, smoke, or consent to sex with an adult. And any adult who sells alcohol, cigarettes to a 13 year old, or one who has sex with her is criminally prosecuted. So, it makes no sense that an adult who sets out to torment her and does so until she dies should be held blameless. The wake of her actions caused this to happen.
The girl was 13 when she signed up for MySpace. MySpace TOS requires someone to be 14. In any legal action, MySpace should, therefore, be charged. In fact, a case could be made that her parents were complicit if they knew about her account...

BUT FOR this hateful woman's actions the girl would still be alive.
I've read that the girl suffered depression. Given that, your comment is kind of silly. Depressed people off themselves all the time without the aid of MySpace.

It's a convoluted case. But it's not a murder case...
