Andrea Canning and Katie Escherich posted an article on ABC.com on April 6th regarding the death of 15-yr-old Phoebe Prince. Prince hanged herself at home on January 14, 2010 after being continuously harrassed.The article discusses three out of the nine kids who are connected to the suicide. Sean Mulveyhill (17 years old) and Austin Renaud (18 years old) were charged with statutory rape. Kayla Narey (17 years old) was charged with harassment and civil rights violations. A friend of the family told reporters that school officials should be held accountable for the death because they were aware of the bullying but school officials report that they were oblivious to this information. Prince's family claims that her aunt had spoken to the school in early November about the problem but the superintendent claims that she never heard from the Prince family.
