Most heartbreaking video I have ever seen

This is a video made by a 15-year-old Canadian bullying victim who was a naive 12-year-old girl when she made the common mistake of flashing somebody she thought she could trust at the other end of a webcam. From that point on, the cyber-stalker (a suspected American pedophile) threatened her that if she didn't do private pornographic performances for him he would circulate the flashing video everywhere. She didn't, so he did. He set up several Facebook accounts to lure her fellow students, and he sent copies of the video to various people at each school she attended. Once the classmates got ahold of the video, they spread it all over with the use of cell phones and social media. That's how the students at each school got involved in the bullying, until she took her life a few days ago. At age 15.

Besides the obvious tragic loss of a child - and no matter what mistakes she may have made, she was still a child - this is exactly why parents/guardians should closely monitor their kid's internet and social media usage, or keep them from using it altogether if necessary. Without a doubt, something like this wouldn't have happened decades ago.

Is it possible to backtrack and trace where that sick creep lived in the states and hold him accountable for murder? As well are there any laws in Canada that could bring those kids to justice and possibly prosecute them as pedophiles for spreading child porn? I hope this is the case, this was sickening, so much cruelty in this world that this innocent child is dead , I hope justice is given to her family.

Law enforcement will get that sick bastard in the US, and yes they can trace.

The RCMP is investigating as well
