Who are the victims? A social media harassment case
-
- A teen died from suicide.
- Her grieving mother posted on social media attributing the teen's suicide to bullying.
- The mother did not name names, but four names came to the fore in response to the grieving mother's social media posts anyway.
- Those four names are themselves teenagers, who then suffered "threats and harassment"
- These four teens then sued the grieving mother for "defamation and slander."
- Judge ordered the grieving mother to shut down her social media accounts
- (The judge's order is supposedly sealed but it leaked anyway.)
-
That seems consistent with the common legal strategy of sueing anyone involved in any way in the hopes that someone will pay.
