		<description>Ms. Drew used the same same exact mode of operation as a child predator enacts in the seduction of a child.

Drew posed as a member of the opposite sex and spent weeks and weeks luring this girl into a relationship.  

But yet it went further.  The adult Drew formed a heated relationship with the 13 year old girl.   She worked hard to gain the girl&#039;s confidence.  She exploited the girl intimately by posing as a boyfriend.  She enacted the same methods child predators use to groom their victims.

Then the woman emotionally raped this child.   She took her supposed love and sexual stimulation and crushed the girl emotionally with them -all while knowing the girl was unstable.

This adult and her friends calculated the best way to achieve maximum mental distress and then carried out their plan.  Even enticed others to join in the destruction of this child.  

There are manslaughter convictions on the books that won based on looser ties to a person&#039;s death than this.  Child predators go to jail for following this scenerio.

Ms. Drew is the clear definition of a child predator.  She used the internet to stalk, entice and lure a 13 year old girl into a romantic, sexually sparked, full fledged relationship.  She then used that power to inflict Great Mental Harm to this child...  A physical rape and mental rape are both as equally destructive to a 13 year old child.   Drew knew this (or should have known this) and still proceeded unabated.


    This is so far beyond &quot;Harassment&quot;, this is full fledged exploitation of a child.

    Is the local police of this county out of their minds to think that NO charge will stick?

    Is the local District Attorneys office serious if they don&#039;t think this girl&#039;s rights have been thoroughly trampled by a grown woman?

    Does the DA really expect people to roll over while this woman goes without so much as even a single charge?

   Does even a speeding ticket register a more serious offense than this?

  _____________

Last of all, the very worst.   Ms. Drew remains defiant and indignant.   Claims the girl was already on the edge mentally.

Ms. Drew denies wrong doing and insists she bears no guilt in her actions.

She justifies her actions as being &quot;protective of her daughter&quot;...  Please tell me how she was protecting someone by mind raping a 13 year old child?

To add insult to incredible injury....   The Drews file charges against the family that lost this child.

The Drews, in a final act of ultimate hate, seek to hurt this family who lost a beloved child.   She seeks to harm them financially....   

Just as MS. Drew attacked an innocent little girl,  Ms. Drew now attacks a grief stricken family - again seeking to harm someone&#039;s very life.

This woman is evil incarnate 

This woman has county officials protecting her...


The same county officials who would put ANY other child exploiter in jail.

It would appear we have a few corrupt city officials.  Officials who need to be fired

Perhaps the county detectives on the case need some scrutiny.  Did they really investigate this crime thoroughly? Apparently not.

There had better be some charges...and some heads better role from this complete mismanagement of law enforcement.</description>

		<description>I remember a few years ago, a nasty girl from the neighborhood IMed my daughter, and got into a conversation.  This girl drifted the conversation to how nasty another girl was, and got my daughter involved in it.  Turns out that other girl was sitting with the &quot;nasty girl&quot; looking over her shoulder.

The girls also enjoyed doing three-ways on the phone with another girl who thought she was in a &quot;two-way&quot;.

It allowed me to do three things:

1. Give my girls a lesson on gossiping so that they would never be &quot;caught&quot; like this again.

2. Understand that teen-aged girls can be the nastiest life forms on the planet.

3. Use my background in computer forensics to track this &quot;nasty girl&quot; and turn her in to her ISP for violation of her AUP.</description>

		<description>What a heart breaking story.  I just posted on suicide on my side as well since a fellow blogger shared that someone else committed suicide as well.  I feel deeply sadden by this event.

Teen years are tough and as mine grow up and get closer to that age, I hope and pray that we will have the wisdom to guide them through those years.

I never dated, ever, during my teens or early twenties because of fear of rejection.  This story reminds me why I would never let anyone that close to me.  

My heart goes out to Megan Meier&#039;s family and all those who have been touched by this tragic event.</description>

		<description>This is a chilling story, particularly when I have a 13-yr-old daughter.

Thank you for helping me educate her on the quasi-reality of Facebook, Nexopia etc.</description>

		<description>Good points, well made. 

Some of us, me included, kept going during those high school years with the belief that things would be better down the road: college, career, whatever. It is truly a a shame that parents are more concerned about how their children do socially in high school, in terms of popularity and so forth, than in trying to instill a sense of maturity and a long term outlook on things. After all, the mother in this case was concerned about what Megan might have been saying about her daughter. The appropriate response: Who cares?</description>

		<description>This story has haunted me too.  It&#039;s almost impossible for me to fathom the small minded and incredibly cruel behavior on the part of the ex-friend&#039;s mother.  It&#039;s bad enough that an immature teenager would do something like that but what kind of so called adult could be so monumentally petty?  I&#039;m at a total loss to find the words to express my utter contempt and disgust with that woman and her daughter.  I guess it only goes to show that wickedness and evil aren&#039;t confined to big or sweeping acts that affect millions.  There&#039;s plenty of small and personal wickedness to go around.

My heart goes out to Megan Meier&#039;s family.  And I hope and pray that someday, the ex-friend&#039;s mother will feel the crushing shame and sorrow that any decent person would feel after engaging in such wanton cruelty.</description>

		<description>I hope these awful people&#039;s names are well known in their community so that they can be properly shunned. In my opinion, shunning should be used much more than it is in modern society. 

There is no law against what these people did. But we don&#039;t always need the law to enforce social norms. Nor do we need to resort to destruction of property and physical attacks. Shunning should not be used for every minor social infraction â€“ only for the most egregious cases. This case certainly qualifies.

I understand people don&#039;t want to hurt the kids of the offending family. Sorry kids - it is your own and your parent&#039;s bad behavior that caused you to be pariahs in your town. You can remain where you are and feel despised by everyone everyday - or you can go away. Move far away where people don&#039;t know you. Start over again in a new place. That will be difficult and painful. Yes - and it should be. You can build a new life. If you act decently you can be welcomed as respected members of your new town. But you shouldn&#039;t have the happy comfortable life you had before - you don&#039;t deserve it and you old neighbors don&#039;t deserve to have to look at you.

Maybe then the whole family will learn a lesson. It will also serve as a lesson for generations in the town they are driven from. Harsh? Damn right - and certainly no less than they deserve. Unchristian? Perhaps (forgiveness has never been my strong suit) but not entirely. As long as those people remain in that community a festering wound will never heal. And if these heartless people feel compelled to leave town the family of this poor girl can perhaps feel that some justice has been done. Some significant punishment should be meted out. The law can&#039;t do it. The people of the community should take it upon themselves to, lawfully, execute justice themselves. Shunning is perfectly suited to this situation.</description>
