Myspace @ MindSay



 

   
I've done it again. I guess bandwagons are my thing.
It's official, I've just jumped on the blogging bandwagon. I'm guilty of doing things like this numerous times. First it was Myspace, then Facebook, and now, well, here I am.
I'm going to try to keep this blog updated as often as I can. My life's pretty busy right now. I'm trying to work full-time, go back to school, take care of my son, Chad, keep my boyfriend happy, and have somewhat of a social life. It gets pretty hectic!
I am so tired. I've been really busy at work these past couple of days. I work at a daycare, so I never really have any down time. In a perfect world, I would get to sit down every once-in-a-while. Our building has reached it's limit; we can't take any more kids. I wish my boss would hurry up and hire someone else, so that Brianna and I can take days off if need be. It kinda stinks with just the two of us.
Chad is at his Dad's house this weekend, so I get this weekend to do whatever I want. I plan on sleeping in tomorrow, so that will be nice. Brianna and I have plans to go see the Sex and the City movie on Sunday. I've heard good things about it, and can't wait!
I should probably go back to bed fairly soon. I'm starting to get really sleepy.
 
 
   
 

 

   
RIPeace!

i sat there thinking, it's been such a long time. i felt as though you never even were in my life. i know, i should feel bad, and i do, but i'm losing all the memory i have of you. it's been only three years, three long years, and already, my memories of my mother, are disappearing. it saddens me, it really does. my mother passed away in 2005, it's 2008, what in the world is going on? i miss my mother terribly, i feel like i've hit rock bottom. the only person that was able to get me out of this sad lonesome pit was her. but now, i feel like i'm going to be here for a while. i have been wanting an end to life recently, it's like every weekend, it comes about. i absolutely hate it, for it is absolutely ridiculous. but these feelings don't just go away, i've been dealing with suicidal tendencies since 7th grade, and i have attempted it a bunch of times. i once wrote a blog all about my suicidal tendencies, apparently, no one on myspace took it seriously. they all commented about how good i wrote it and whatnot. from that blog, however, i did get a bunch of messages, from people who were actually worried about me. i have a problem, i want to feel wanted..way too much. if not, i lower myself, i bring myself down to where i'm at right now, rock bottom. one day, i hope to climb these rocks, to the top of the mountain, where i will be able to live.

 
 
   
 

Lori Drew - Finally Indicted in MySpace Suicide Case
As we said back when this case came to public light, Lori Drew broke a lot of laws. We will never understand why the prosecutor in her area gave her a pass. He should be investigated too.

But now, Mrs. Drew's chickens have come home to roost. Ashley Grills, the girl Drew tried to blame Megan Meier's suicide on -- came clean about Drew's involvement and now the U.S. District Attorney, Thomas O'Brien has filed an indictment against Drew.

We can only pray that Drew gets the jail time for her immature & malicious intentions towards poor Megan Meier.
This case will set a precedent for those who wish to pursue charges against their predators for INTENTIONAL INFLICTION OF EMOTIONAL DISTRESS.

Predators often do the same things Mrs. Drew did - use false identities, lure vulnerable persons into online relationships, smear them, bully them and discard them - leaving adult victims with serious PTSD and other problems.

In our opinion, Megan Meier was a young girl who deserved a lot better than being set up and yes -- pushed to suicide by a remorseless person like Lori Drew.


REMEMBER: The Courts & Prosecutors INITIALLY said "THERE WAS NO CASE." But Tina Meier (Megan's mother) and people like us - the bloggers, who the press tried to smear as a "cybermob," kept after this case.

Victims - NEVER NEVER NEVER GIVE UP PURSUING JUSTICE!!!!!!!

MISSOURI WOMAN INDICTED ON CHARGES OF USING MYSPACE TO 'CYBER-BULLY' 13-YEAR-OLD WHO LATER COMMITTED SUICIDE


LOS ANGELES – A Missouri woman was indicted today on federal charges for fraudulently using an account on the social networking Web site MySpace, U.S. Attorney for the Central District of California Thomas P. O'Brien announced today.

The woman posed as a teenage boy who feigned romantic interest in a 13 year-old girl, who later committed suicide after the "boy" spurned her and told her, among other things, that the world would be a better place without her.


Lori Drew, 49, of O'Fallon, Mo., was named in a four-count indictment returned this morning by a federal grand jury. The indictment charges one count of conspiracy and three counts of accessing protected computers without authorization to obtain information to inflict emotional distress on the girl who, because of juvenile privacy rules, is referred to in the indictment only as M.T.M.

The indictment alleges that Drew, along with others, registered as a member of MySpace under the name "Josh Evans." Drew and her co-conspirators then used the Josh Evans account to contact M.T.M. and began what the girl believed was an on-line romance with a 16-year-old boy.

In taking those actions, the indictment alleges, Drew and her co-conspirators violated MySpace's terms of service that prohibit users from, among other things, using fraudulent registration information, using accounts to obtain personal information about juvenile members, and using the MySpace communication services to harass, abuse or harm other members.


After approximately four weeks of flirtatious communications between "Josh Evans" and M.T.M., Drew and her co-conspirators broke off the relationship. Within an hour, M.T.M. had hanged herself in her room. She died the next day.
"This adult woman allegedly used the Internet to target a young teenage girl, with horrendous ramifications," said U.S. Attorney Thomas P. O'Brien. "After a thorough investigation, we have charged Ms. Drew with criminally accessing MySpace and violating rules established to protect young, vulnerable people.
Any adult who uses the Internet or a social gathering Web site to bully or harass another person, particularly a young teenage girl, needs to realize that their actions can have serious consequences."
To become a member of MySpace, individuals are required to submit registration information – including name and date of birth – and have to agree to certain terms of service that regulate their use of the Web site. Among other things, MySpace terms of service require prospective members to provide truthful and accurate registration information; to refrain from using any information obtained from MySpace services to harass, abuse or harm other people; to refrain from soliciting personal information from anyone under 18; to refrain from promoting information that they know is false or misleading; and to refrain from posting photographs of other people without their consent.

The indictment alleges that Drew and her co-conspirators violated all of those provisions.


"Whether we characterize this tragic case as 'cyber-bullying,' cyber abuse or illegal computer access, it should serve as a reminder that our children use the Internet for social interaction and that technology has altered the way they conduct their daily activities," said Salvador Hernandez, Assistant Director in Charge of the FBI in Los Angeles. "As adults, we must be sensitive to the potential dangers posed by the use of the Internet by our children."

The conspiracy count carries a maximum statutory penalty of five years in federal prison. Each count of accessing protected computers, each of which alleges that the access was for the purpose of intentionally inflicting emotional distress on M.T.M., carries a maximum possible penalty of five years in prison.


An indictment contains allegations that a defendant has committed a crime. Every defendant is presumed to be innocent unless and until proven guilty.


Drew will be summoned to appear for an arraignment in U.S. District Court in Los Angeles in June.

This case was investigated by special agents with the FBI in St. Louis and Los Angeles.
