MySpace Mom Lori Drew (Josh Evans) Indicted For Role in online Hoax of Suicide Death of 13 Year Old Megan Meier

It was the internet MySpace hoax that disgusted the world. The result was the suicide of 13 year old Megan Meier. People cried out for justice and initially there was none. Finally, there appears to be JUSTICE FOR MEGAN.

Justice is served in one of the most sick and pathetic cases of cyberbullying on record. Its bad enough when pre-teens and teens do it, but when an adult does it to a teenager … it defies all logic. Let this be a shot across the bow to future cyberbulliers, prosecutors are breaking new legal ground on the internet. If one thinks they can hide behind their key board and do anything, think again. To “keyboard cowards” every where, there will be consequences to threats made and your actions.

49 year old Lori Drew, or should we say her faux online persona Josh Evans, was indicted in her role that led to the suicide of 13 year old Megan Meier. Its about time! It was an internet MySpace hoax that will most likely change the rules as to personal conduct on the web. Lori Drew created a MySpace account and began chatting with Megan Meier under the false identity of a 16 year old boy, Josh Evans. Lori Drew has been charged with one count of conspiracy and three counts of accessing protected computers without authorization to get information used to inflict emotional distress on the girl.

She was charged with conspiracy and fraudulently gaining access to someone else’s computer.

Megan hanged herself at home in October 2006, allegedly after receiving a dozen or more cruel messages, including one stating the world would be better off without her.

Salvador Hernandez, assistant agent in charge of the Los Angeles FBI office, called the case heart-rending.

“The Internet is a world unto itself. People must know how far they can go before they must stop. They exploited a young girl’s weaknesses,” Hernandez said. “Whether the defendant could have foreseen the results, she’s responsible for her actions.”

Key events in the Megan Meier case

 The Feds acted after state authorities said they had no grounds to prosecute the woman, despite national outrage at her behavior. It sadly appeared at one point that no charges would be filed as Missouri prosecutors could find no crimes to charge Lori Drew with. It was simply criminal.

She set up a MySpace profile for the imaginary boy, complete with a picture of a random handsome youth, and then contacted Megan. “Josh Evans” chatted with Megan for about six weeks. He called her “sexi” and offered to take her out on a date.

Megan’s parents said their daughter, who struggled with her weight, was thrilled by the attention from a “hot” boy.

But then “Josh” turned on Megan. Among the last things Megan saw online on Oct. 16, 2006, were postings saying “Megan Meier is a slut” and “Megan Meier is fat.”

Her parents said the last message from “Josh” said, “Everybody hates you. … The world would be a better place without you.”

Megan hanged herself in her bedroom closet. She was about to turn 14.

Guadalupe Gutierrez-Juarez, a Suspected Illegal Immigrant Arrested for Rape of 10 year Old, Girl Gives Birth

Guadalupe Gutierrez-Juarez was arrested for the rape of a 10 year old girl in Gutierrez_juarezIdaho where she subsequently gave birth.  Guadalupe Gutierrez-Juarez is suspected as being an illegal immigrant. Proponents of illegal immigration say that illegals are just doing the jobs that Americans do not want to do. What, like raping and impregnating 10 year old girls?

A 37-year-old man is charged with raping a 10-year-old girl who gave birth last month in Idaho.

“St. Anthony Police said they were notified of the young girl’s pregnancy by medical personnel after she went in for treatment at a doctor’s office,” KIFI-TV reports on its website.

One day later, the ABC affiliate says the young mother delivered a 6-pound girl at Madison Memorial Hospital in Rexburg, Idaho.

KIDK-TV says Guadalupe Gutierrez-Juarez, a suspected illegal immigrant, is being held at the Fremont County Jail. He’s due in court next week to face rape charges.

“I wouldn’t have believed a 10-year-old could conceive in the first place,” Fremont County Sheriff Ralph Davis tells the Associated Press.

Listen to Dana Pretzer’s comments on this heinous case.

Girl was 9-Years-Old When She Got Pregnant

Here’s a headline from 2 News.tv, KBCI,  10-year-old gives birth; Wtfallegedly raped. ALLEGEDLY!!! Do we think that some how a 9 year old had consensual sex with this man!!! Let us not forget the fact that this predator was an illegal immigrant as well. This country has enough problems with our own child predators, than to allow ones to sneak across the border.

In documents that were filed April 29 in 7th District Court and obtained by The Associated Press, Gutierrez-Juarez is charged with one count of rape. He remained in jail with bail set at $250,000 pending a preliminary hearing May 13.

Authorities said Gutierrez-Juarez did not have legal documentation to live in the United States. His home town and nationality were not immediately clear, but police said they had received no complaints about him before investigating the pregnancy.

The investigation was continuing. Smith would not give details on the condition of the girl but said additional counts of rape could be filed.

The Legacy of Natalee Holloway … Safe Travels for Years to Come & Aruba has been Branded

Aruba’s loss is a college students gain. The disappearance of Natalee Holloway3Holloway in Aruba in 2005 has not been forgotten. The memory and legacy of Natalee Holloway will be that future teens and college age students will be taught the risks of traveling abroad. Safe travels aboard does not necessarily target Aruba as the only unsafe place to travel; however, it has become the poster island for safety abroad and has been branded. However, in the case of Natalee Holloway it is not just a message of traveling safe while on vacation, it’s a message of what could potentially happen with an investigation afterword’s in a foreign land.

As long as safety abroad is taught and Natalee Holloway’s name is referenced so will Aruba. The two have become synonymous and Aruba’s bad PR clock will never stop ticking. In America, a human life is more important than tourism.

Waits said she likes to think Natalee is at Auburn now though, since has spent the last two years looking at safety guidelines for students traveling abroad for the foundation Beth Holloway founded in her daughter’s memory — the International Safe Travels Foundation.

“When I paid attention to Natalee’s case, what I saw was a young girl,” Waits said. “I saw every young person.”

Like Beth Holloway, Waits didn’t want to see anything like what happened to Natalee happen again. And, at the time, she needed a research topic for graduate school.

Waits decided to look into how aware students are of safety guidelines when traveling. Her research has become the curriculum Beth Holloway shares with traveling students across the country. Waits said it was first introduced to Auburn students studying abroad last spring.

“Students are pretty confident before they leave,” she said, but, when she asks them about the process of say, court proceedings, in their destination country, they are at a loss.

“No one can say what happens over there,” Waits said. “It’s not their fault though. They’ve just never been told.”

“Beth experienced this. She went through it,” Waits said. “She wants to make sure it doesn’t happen again.” (OA Now)

Post Natalee Holloway … Parents Get the Message, Teens Unfortunately Do Not Understand Responsibility Still

There is a reason why they say youth is wasted on the young. Mainly because the youth, mainly teens just do not comprehend the complexities and in some cases the common sense of safety. In a post Aruba/Natalee Holloway world one would think that teens would learn from another’s misfortune.

What has happened to this generation of teens and their utter lack of responsibility? And for those that claim its the same from generation to generation, it is not. The You Tube Teens are out of control and seem to have no responsibility for their actions.

A message to teens and college age kids … learn from the story of Natalee Holloway who went missing in Aruba. For those who do not learn from history are destined to repeat it.

There was a recent Spring Break poll done by Mom•Logic Investigation: Spring Break Confessions.

It’s understandable that 70% of parents were more anxious about what would happen to their children at spring break because of the Natalee Holloway disappearance. But only about 30% of teens admitted Natalee Holloway’s story impacted decisions they made–which is truly scary.

Judge to Rule Whether Becca McEvoy gets Justice … Victims Rights!!!

Should a victim lose their rights because they die? It never seems that the suspects in crimes care anything about the rights of their victims. Funny, it’s only when its about a suspects defense does the concern of rights matter. Then again, its only about those her are on trial and their rights.

Should Becca McEvoy have less rights than her abuser?

Who is looking out for Becca McEvoy?

This is what is preventing Justice for Becca from a Sexual Abuser … a car crash.  A car crash that took the life of Becca. How is someone’s death supposed to benefit a child abuser?  You should all be outraged by the lack of Victim’s Rights in our legal system.

(Car crash video)

Media Continues to Not Cover Becca McEvoy Case … What are you Waiting For, Becca to be Victimized Again?

WAKE UP MEDIA PRODUCERS AND TALK SHOW HOSTS THAT CLAIM YOU CARE ABOUT CHILDREN!!!

Becca9

Does Becca McEvoy not deserve justice?

Has the media ever bothered to look into the case of 11 year old Becca McEvoy? There is a case right there in front of you that has all of the compelling elements for what the media cares about most, ratings. We are not even going to try and talk to the fact that there is a human, touching and gut wrenching side to this story that would appeal to viewers. No American ever wants to see an 11 year old child sexually abused let alone done so by the US Court system.Rebecca pics 034

An 11 year old girl is allegedly sexually assaulted by her step-father, Bob Ingle, and then because of a horrible car accident tragedy Becca is killed prior to the case going to trial. Bob Ingle was charged with rape, sodomy and sexual abuse. Thus, a man who committed repeated crimes against his step-daughter may walk because of the fact that an accused get to face his/her accuser. Is a victim of rape supposed to lose their rights because they die?

PLEASE HELP PROVIDE JUSTICE FOR BECCA.

Mark Lunsford … HERO! A Parent Living the Worst Nightmare … Jessica Lunsford’s Legacy will help Children for Years to Come

Thank you Mark Lunsford for … JESSICA’S JUSTICE.

Hero:  a man admired for his achievements and noble qualities. One that Mark_Lunsford2shows great courage.

Mark Lunsford never thought that he would be one of the most known and respected children’s advocates of sex crimes. Mark Lunsford also never thought that he would lose his 9 year old daughter Jessica Lunsford in the manner he did and be living “a parent’s worst nightmare.”

“I didn’t spend my life raising kids so that somebody could one of them away,” he says.

But his daughter, nine-year-old Jessica, was taken away, abducted from home, sexually assaulted and murdered by convicted sex offender John Couey.

“The problem that we have in the United States with sexual predators and offenders is actually it’s insulting to all the people that these kind of crimes could go so lightly punished,” Mark explains.

However, out of the ashes and the tragedy arose a true American hero. We are constantly presented with strories in the media of what’s wrong with America. Or during this election year, what makes people bitter. We should never forget nor have to be reminded what makes America great. People like Mark Lunsford who take the worst of tragedies and turn them into causes for good are exactly the stuff of what hero’s are made of.   

Mark_Lunsford_andjessica

Mark Lunsford is a perfect example that no parent ever thinks or expects that it will be their children who fall prey to such ruthless and vicious sex offenders like John Couey. What John Couey did to 9 year old Jessica Lunsford is well documented and makes even the most non-violent person want to stone him to death. Why do we love Mark Lunsford? Because he says it as it is. There is no political PC nonsense. Mark is not a politician. He is a parent on a mission, one to protect children and their rights. One that is all too often forgotten by law makers because children do not vote.

“My crusade is mandatory sentencing, 25 years to life. If you sexually abuse a child or you molest a child, I firmly believe you don’t have a right in society,” he says.

Now all he hopes is that his story, his nightmare will make a difference.

“She was just like the little girl that you would change the world for, plus ten,” he says describing his daughter, Jessica..

Mark Lunsford has become a hero to all and especially to sexually exploited, abused and murdered children at the hands of sex offenders. For that we owe Mark Lunsford a debt of gratitude that he has made it his person mission in life that other parents children may benefit for what happened to Jessica. Call it the legacy of Jessica Lunsford. Call it a father’s mission and Jessica’s Justice.

Beware: Kiddy Porn Movie Been Circulated via Email in Curacao

Hmm … The Caribbean must provide safety for their children on the internet. When opening up your emails beware.

Warning for child pornography (Amigoe: April 15, 2008)

WILLEMSTAD – An e-mail with a short kiddy porn movie is currently being circulated in Curacao.  Several people have already received this movie in their inbox, announced the youth organization Bos di Hubentud in a press conference yesterday.

The matter is meanwhile reported with the Public Prosecutor.  The reporter in question was not available to give information this morning.  According to Wendol Lewis, policeman and chairman of Bos di Hubentud, the images are horrible; they show a 4 or 5-year old little girl having sex with an adult man.  The persons that saw the movie, have forwarded it to others, which is also liable to punishment, because people cooperate this way, whether intentional or not, to the distribution of kiddy porn.  Lewis therefore urgently appeals to everybody to immediately report these types of movies with pornographical images of children to the authorities.  If you have received such movie, please do not forward it to anybody, erase it immediately, and report it to the OM or the Vice Squad.  They will register the mail and do further investigation.  Bos di Hubentud warns parents to be on the alert for what their children receive on the computer.

Ignorance of Todays Teens … Trading Nude Photos Via Cell Phone Now Part of Teen Dating

“Adolescents are not known for thinking things through, that’s a generational constant.”

So much for passing notes in class, technology has made that all but obsolete. Cell_phoneThat and an unthinking and brazen generation of teens. Is this what it has come to with today’s teens? It’s bad enough that most cannot focus on anything but having their cell phone constantly attached to their ear or continual texting. Now we learn that sending nude photos of themselves has become part of the ritual of teen dating. What is the fascination with the voyeuristic generation of teens out there?

Have today’s teens lost all sense of shame and responsibility? Obviously teens that partake in such risky behavior also have no idea what “consequences” to one’s actions mean. Think these pics will not show up on the internet? Think again. Think these pics may not cost you a future job down the road? Think again. However, the sad reality is these teens who claim to be so intelligent are not thinking at all. Parents … where are you!!!

The instant text, picture and video messages have become part of some teens’ courtship behavior, police and school officials said. The messages often spread quickly and sometimes find their way to public Web sites.

“I’ve seen everything from your basic striptease to sexual acts being performed,” said Reynoldsburg police Detective Brian Marvin, a member of the FBI Cyber Crime Task Force of Central Ohio. “You name it, they will do it at their home under this perceived anonymity.”

Westerville Central High School senior Jerome Ray said he’s received such unsolicited messages, including one from a classmate while he was sitting with his girlfriend.

“A lot more girls are aggressive,” said Ray, 18. “Some girls are crazy and they are putting themselves out there.”

Experts said teens often don’t understand the dangers.
