I can't find the previous thread I had about this case, but the story was incredibly disturbing....

....

Lori Drew, 49, faces up to three years in prison when she is sentenced Dec. 29 after the federal jury declined to convict her on three felony charges and couldn't decide on a fourth. The felony counts had carried a maximum 20-year term.

Lori Drew, 49, allegedly posed as a 16-year-old boy named Josh Evans on MySpace and participated in what the prosecutor called "an elaborate scheme to inflict massive humiliation" on the emotionally fragile Meier that ended when the girl hanged herself.
....

In what was being called the nation's first cyber-bulling trial, Drew, of Dardenne Prairier, Mo., was accused of hatching the MySpace romance plan in 2006 because of a feud between Drew's daughter and Meier. The fictional Josh concluded the online flirting by sending a message saying the world would be better off without Meier.
