Lori Drew Speaks
Do you think Lori Drew is a reader of PYSIH.com?
She might be.
It seems that someone left a comment in the article bearing her name. A comment in which Lori Drew attempts to explain the rationale behind her actions.
The comment appears to be the same post that was left on the meganhaditcoming blog.
The poster has an interesting perspective, to say the least.
According to the IP address of the individual making the comment, this comment could be from Lori Drew…or it might be a clever fake. I’m sure that Lori feels somewhat relieved at the announcement that she won’t face charges of any kind for her actions.
Read it and decide for yourself.
I’m Lori Drew
It’s time I dropped the charade. Yes, I made this blog. Yes, I’m Lori Drew.
My daughter had nothing to do with this. Everyone needs to leave her alone. None of you can possibly know her involvement, and none of you can possibly know what she’s gone through. She’s just a kid. She doesn’t deserve these brutal verbal attacks. Please stop.
Now that Mr. Banas has made public the announcement that there will be no charges filed against me or my family, I feel it is time to speak out about this tragic affair. I cannot count on any media organization to fairly represent my story, as they have grossly misrepresented and sensationalized the story so far. So, I must present my case here, on the blog that has been my only outlet.
You don’t understand what the last two years have been like, living in this town, dealing with these people. When we came here, the Meiers seemed like a great family with whom we could form a friendship. Tina sold us our house and our little girls became fast friends. It was typical. Sleepovers and vacations and events in the community. The girls were inseparable.
We knew Megan and we liked having her around, at first. But as the months went on, we saw a change in our daughter. She was increasingly disturbed and defensive. We thought the effects of puberty were taking hold. But, we soon realized the negative influence was Megan. Megan had her bright and perky side, but she also had her dark side. We knew that she suffered from depression, so we tried to be supportive and patient. We talked to Ron and Tina about our concerns, but they would have none of it. Their precious Megan couldn’t be the problem and they said we should feel bad for even suggesting it of a poor, mentally ill child.
It only got worse from there. Megan found out that we had gone to her parents and she worked to drive a wedge between our daughter and us. We fought back the only way we knew how: we supported our daughter and explained to her what we thought. She agreed with us, and that’s when the fallout started.
When Sarah stopped going along with Megan’s antics, Megan took it especially hard and lashed out. She called my daughter every nasty name in the book, swore to never be friends again and stormed out. Then a few days later they were friends again, Megan would try to manipulate Sarah, Sarah wouldn’t buy it, and Megan would become furious again. Then came the MySpace attack. Not the one you’re reading about in the news, but the one that started this whole thing.
After the final break-up in their frienship, Megan coordinated a MySpace attack on my daughter. Since she didn’t have access to MySpace herself, she had to work through friends. I wasn’t too surprised because I knew that Megan was grounded from MySpace the previous year after she made a fake profile with a friend to go prank and bully a classmate they didn’t like.
Fortunately, that prank didn’t go far, and neither did her latest attempted prank on my daughter. But the damage was done to my child, and I knew what kind of child Megan was, depression or not.
Now I had nothing but sympathy for Megan’s condition. But my sympathy has limits. When you come after my daughter and try to hurt her like that, my patience wears out. This troubled child was no longer able to poison my baby in person, so she decided to reach out on the Internet to do it instead. Like any parent, when you see the ill-behaved child next door causing trouble for your family, you want to wring the neck of the parents who let it happen. But, as Megan’s parents made it clear earlier, they were not about to come down on their precious Megan. I had no recourse with them. And, forbidding the children from seeing each other was not effective because Megan could simply harass my daughter online.
Then, my daughter heard that Megan was lobbying her parents to get her MySpace back. I was instantly terrified. That little monster was a tremendous poison for my daughter as-is. I didn’t want to think about what kind of damage she would do if she had total access to the internet. I talked the situation over with people I knew and trusted, who told me to be very afraid. Teenage bullying was rampant on MySpace, and there were very few, if any, legal options for people being harassed. Everyone’s advice was: if you’re harassed, your only option is to delete your profile and run. It won’t stop people from saying bad things about you, but at least you won’t have to see it.
I wanted to hide my daughter away from all of this, and delete her MySpace, but she begged and pleaded with me to let her stay. I know it’s MySpace and it’s a social hub for teens today and I didn’t want my daughter to be the only one without, so I relented.
Instead, I worked with a couple of people I knew to create a profile so I could keep tabs on Megan. They helped me add pictures and graphics and music so it would look like a boy that Megan would want to talk to. We didn’t totally know what we were doing with the Josh Evans persona, or where it would lead, so I kept it quiet. We did our best to shmooze Megan into opening up. I complimented her pictures and said how great she was. I very gently asked her about her school life and her friends hoping that if she was planning any attack on my daughter that we would be one step ahead of her and could take this evidence to her parents, show them what their daughter is up to so they would finally take action.
A couple of weeks went by and Megan was buying it. We were surprised at how she could be so nice to “Josh†and still have an undercurrent of negativity when she talked about school friends. We wanted to make sure she wasn’t going to try anything to get back at Sarah, so we kept the account going. When Megan started talking about being in love and wanting to do boyfriend/girlfriend stuff with “Josh” I got concerned. How do we keep going for information AND figure out a way to let her down gently once we were convinced nothing was going to happen? What if we let her down, and she regressed and came after my daughter anyway? I was becoming very confused and concerned then. Megan was unpredictable and I absolutely did NOT want her harassing my child. I didn’t know what to do, so I kept going. I played down her innuendo. Anytime she became explicit, “Josh” backed off and kept the compliments above board.
Then I found out that Megan’s parents were actively monitoring the account! Everything that had been going on, they were witness to. This troubled me deeply: were they not concerned when their 13 year old daughter wanted to have heavy duty make out sessions with a 16 year old boy? Hello!
I had “Josh” friend other people that Megan knew all the while so that if anyone else knew of anything that was going to happen, we’d have that much more chance of staying ahead of the game. One of the girls we friended even figured out that the profile was fake. We let her in on it, and asked what she wanted. Turns out, she wasn’t friendly with Megan, either, so she wanted to help. I gave her access to the account.
It wasn’t long after that that we saw what was being said on other accounts: Megan was still mad at Sarah and was very quiety spreading cruel rumors. She kept it off her own MySpace because she knew that kind of stuff would get her grounded off it again. I was furious! Not only was Megan obviously not going to stop until she had her revenge, but now there was no way to get any evidence about it.
That’s when I decided I would have to teach Megan a lesson and give her a taste of her own medicine.
I decided that I would shut down the Josh account, and not be nice about it. Megan’s feelings be damned, and to hell with her consequence! I was going to protect my daughter no matter what. So I sent the break up e-mail to Megan saying that Josh didn’t want to be friends because Megan was very cruel to her friends. Naturally, Megan freaked, and I tried to keep the messages short and sweet. As a last resort bargaining chip, I figured that if she really loved Josh then maybe he could pressure her into stopping her lies. But it didn’t work, and the situation devolved lightning fast.
Megan was screaming at Josh for answers on who he had been talking to: she wanted to know who ratted her out so she could take out revenge on them, too. I shared Megan’s messages with everyone involved and encouraged everyone to stand up against her and not take her crap anymore.
Instead, once the word got out about Megan, so did all her romantic replies, as well as a few secrets and the MySpace crowd ganged up on her.But I didn’t realize that this group would react that way. I expected a certain amount of bullying, and I was OK with it. I wanted Megan to get a taste of what she had been dishing out this whole time. But I didn’t want it to go as far as it did. It’s true that the slut and fat references came out of what I shared. And by the time I was done with work on that day, the bullying against Megan had progressed pretty far. I had heard about the “better off without you” message and that’s when I told everyone to cool it. Megan had been punished enough, and I was satisfied that she would think twice before bullying or manipulating anyone again.
That night I saw the ambulance lights at the Meier house, and then I saw them take Megan out on a stretcher. I was stunned and horrified. I wasn’t sure what had happened, and when they had said Megan tried to kill herself, I didn’t believe it. Yes, Megan suffered from depression, but she was always laughing and smiling when we were on vacations, or at sleep overs. After the shock wore off, I panicked: what if Megan ended her life after what happened on MySpace? It seemed ridiculous. When kids were bullied, they went to their rooms and cried – even the depressed ones. They didn’t hang themselves.
I was distraught over the event, so I instructed the key people involved to stay quiet to protect themselves against any counter-bullying, and I deleted the Josh profile. I kept the truth from the Meier family because there was simply no reason to come forward. Their little girl died the next day at the hospital. Their lives were destroyed. What good would it do to inform them that their daughter’s MySpace boyfriend was a fake? They wouldn’t believe that their daughter was a MySpace bully and a real life manipulator when she was alive, so why add to their grief now? I stayed quiet. I went to the funeral to pay my respects to this troubled child who took herself to a tragic end. We mourned the loss of a girl who once was a good friend. We all tried to get on with our lives.
Little by little rumors of the cause of Megan’s suicide spread. Of course the Josh break-up was mentioned, as was the MySpace bullying. People talked about the need to stop MySpace bullying. There were a couple of news reports, but it never went anywhere.
Until six weeks later when one of the girls involved decided to link me to the issue. When Megan’s parents found out that the Josh account was me, they focused all of their rage and pain and guilt at me. Instantly, what had been a mysterious suicide with no definite answers became a personal vendetta.
Just like Megan, her parents showed their dark side and scared the holy hell out of me when they dumped our smashed foosball table on our driveway. Instantly I knew we were dealing with unbalanced people. Aggravated by their child’s death and their own culture of anxiety, I very much feared for my family. I made sure to report the incident to the police so the Meiers would know that we would stand up for ourselves and that the police were watching, should they choose to do something rash.
A little bit after that, I decided to try to diffuse the situation and confront the parents. I would lay out everything I knew, all the intent, and everything I thought. If they didn’t want to accept the truth about their daughter, then there was nothing else I could do. But I would at least try. Unfortunately, Tina & Ron would have none of it. They wouldn’t talk to us, they wouldn’t deal with us. Ron pretty much came unglued when we made one last attempt. They had nothing but raw hatred for us, and they wouldn’t listen. That’s when I realized it was hopeless.
The police investigation was especially frightening. We cooperated as best we could. I provided my statement, but I was not satisfied with the officer who took it. He got most of the details wrong, and he left out intricacies that I’ve explained here. When I tried to get the report corrected, an officer at the desk said she was familiar with our case, and flat out refused to allow us to amend our statement. That was the beginning of the backlash. That it came from a police officer truly shook us.
The investigators asked both us and the Meiers to remain quiet about the issue while they conducted their work. They warned us of small town mob violence and undue media attention. We agreed and went on with our lives. We heard almost nothing for nearly nine months. Our lives seemed to be getting back to normal, despite the family down the street that still grieved visibly and had devolved into fights and separation. I truly felt bad for them. They lost their baby, and now they were tearing themselves apart because the pain wasn’t getting any better. I made sure to kiss and hug my Sarah every night and tell her how much I loved her. We actually grew closer from it.
Then the investigation was over. No charges would be filed. We were relieved. It felt like a weight had finally been lifted from us. But not so for Tina & Ron. They had focused their rage on us and blamed us for everything. I could understand their pain and their guilt, but I had had enough of their accusations. One day I did snap and told Tina to “give it a rest.” Looking back, it was insensitive to say. But, you have to understand that for months we had been dealing with a family that didn’t want to listen to our side of the story and only called for us to “be gone.” Like I said, my sympathy has limits.
After the investigation, Tina made it clear she wasn’t going to let this go. We weren’t sure what to expect, but we had grown to be dismissive of her and her incoherent ranting. Then came the newspaper article, which instantly painted us as hoaxers who were out to make Megan kill herself.
You see, this is why I now have an extreme distrust for any media: they paint the story in whatever way gets the most readers. Everyone from Pokin to Andersoon Cooper has painted this story as if we set out to destroy Megan, as if her suicide was a foregone conclusion of our actions. But it’s not. We didn’t know Megan was going to do what she did. If we knew it was going to end like that, I wouldn’t have started this whole thing. I had no intention for Megan to be so drastic. I wanted her to learn a lesson so she could be a better person. I didn’t want her to die.
Then Sarah Wells outed me. Then the hate and harassment and threats poured in. Even against my daughter. First there were dozens of calls, then hundreds, then there was national news, and everyone went crazy.
That’s why I started this blog and posted as “Kirsten.” I was so angry at the world for being so unfair, especially when it came to my daughter whom I had sworn to protect from all of this. I took a low blow at Megan’s memory because I desperately wanted the world to at least get a glimpse of the truth.
But that’s all over now. The final word from authorities has come down that there will be no charges, so I don’t have to remain silent. There’s no point in hiding anymore. The internet has made it clear that mob revenge must prevail, even if there’s no justice in it. So be it.
Here I am, internet. Come get me.
Update:
The meganhaditcoming site was (in all likelihood) not done by Lori Drew, as the author of the two articles on that site (both of which have since been deleted) has come forward and announced that he is someone who was sick of the way the Drews have been treated.

Mrs. Drew learned her lesson so well that she created another internet persona to post a blog. If Im not mistaken this could be filed under the true definition of retarded.
Flasch186 I take great offense of your use of the word “retarded” to describe Mrs. Drew.
Surely the mentally handicapped would have more sense than to do the kind of shit Lori Drew pulled.
Lori,
I don’t think you want to use “Come get me” with the anons.
Anonamoose: I thought Anonymous was on her side as ‘epic trolling’?
tl;dr.
It’s true Chelsey, she is perhaps one of the greatest IRL trolls ever known, but in retrospect, Is it really hard to make a teenage girl who’s concerned about her image and reputation become an hero? I don’t think so.
But realize that Anonymous does not side with anyone in particular for that would imply that they have feelings which the legion is entirely devoid of need I remind you. None of us is as cruel as all of us, and because of the fact that there are no girls on the internets I am seriously inclined to believe this was not Lori at all.
But it could have been. Does it matter? Nah, either way the situation has lost the majority of the scant amount of lulz it started with and now just needs to get saged into our memory. I wonder if I could cram any more memes into this comment? Maybe Candlejack could tell me if I ca
a lot of text, but just one small quote caught my eye.
quote
We didn’t know Megan was going to do what she did
end quote.
Can i say ignorance is not an excuse? you perceived her as being happy most of the time, yet you know about her depressions? so basically you figured, that as far as you can tell, she’s really not all that depressed and can take the internet abuse? can i see your medical degree please? the fact that you “diagnosed” her as not being that depressed at all doesn’t make it less of a crime you see. the legal system may have waived your responsibility, the internet community has not and time served on internet is a life sentence.
your actions resulted in the death of a teenager!!! i think what you did with ‘josh’s’ myspace is stalking!!! why didnt yor report your concerns to myspace instead of stooping to her level?
for a business woman so seem abnormaly immature and stupid!!!
Who cares why you did it….you still did it…causing a young girl to kill herself!!!!
Hey LOSER!!! shut up If something like this “made: her kill herself then I can only imagine what that weak, disturbed mind could’ve done later in life. I HATE ppl like you always blaming and never taking personal responsibility for actions. You want to know who killed her its sounds like her parents for existing in a dreamworld and babying there mentally ill daughter even in the face of truth. I suppose if someone trips over a curb its the curbs fault…right???? Fuqqin idiot!!!
So that leaves Lori Drew exempt for what she did?
I think not.
The only idiot I see here is YOU.
Its funny. When I was her age, all of my friends did the same thing, including me. One day we would be friends, the next day, not, people talking about people, insults, etc. The whole ridiculous thing. Lori shouldn’t act like her daughter was being attacked, and this is why this “started”. She was probably running her mouth to all her litle friends too. It doesn’t matter what YOUR DAUGHTER SAID ABOUT MY DAUGHTER BLAH BLAH BLAH. They are kids…no…TEENAGE GIRLS!!! If it was that bad, tell your kid not to speak to megan. If she continued, tell her to grow a pair when someone makes fun of her. Shes a teenager. It only gets worse from there. Are you going to be there in 30 years when she has an office job and her ignorant 68 year old co worker is passing rumors about her around the office to try to get her fired because she doesnt like her? Idiot.
Lori Drew and Ashley Grills, shame on you. You must live with this for the rest of your life. You are a poor excuse for a mother. Which personality will you play into next?? You need help, get some therapy.
Ms. Drew has way too much time on her hands. Disgusting.
Wow…too bad that stupidity,ignorance,meanness and being self-serving aren’t crimes.
Okay – do you honestly think that this blog is going to change what anybody thinks about you!!?? Are you kidding me!? I’m sorry, but all you did was act like a 13 year old girl. “Whaa…I was trying to protect my daughter”. Bull crap. You are a sick woman and deserve all the scorn you are getting.
How long until they go bankrupt and lose the nice house?
If they had jobs and worked for someone else, they’d be okay. But the problem with running your own business is that your name is your brand, and the name of Lori Drew is now and forever rightfully tarnished.
Maybe they should change their names and start over. But of course they’d have to go to court to do that, and it would become a matter of public record.
Funny this, this internet, Lori. You didn’t have it when you were growing up, but it’s never going to go away. The account of what you did to the Meier family will still be evergreen when you are long underground.
does anyone really believe Lori Drew wrote that piece of crap? I don’t. The real Lori Drew doesn’t give a damn what anybody thinks, other than her mail-litter customers.
I would personally love to bitch slap the whore but there is no point in ‘responding’ because dollars to donuts that is just drivel from some teenager.
Yeah, probably Lori Drews sweet little innocent Sarah
yeah ok. Like Lori Drew is going to step down to this level. Oh wait…she loves starting crap online. Whatever. She needs to have what’s going to come to her. Kharma is beyond a bitch especially when it has to do with a women scorned. You don’t fuck with moms. That’s one thing I know. Moms are the one thing I’m terrified of especially when it comes to fucking with their children.
Who is the adult here? Who needs to step above the petty bickering? Of course the other family is at fault, it can’t be you right? Stop trying to justify your adolescent response to your daughter’s problems.
You are disgusting. Own up to what you have done and realize that you need to take responsibility for your part in this young girl’s suicide.
You know, perhaps we should start segregating the bitches you get in high schools and culling them, because this woman is what happens when they’re allowed to grow unchecked: their brains simply don’t develop and all they’re capable of doing to contribute to society is breed and be cruel to other women, thus backing up thousands of years of patriarchy by reinforcing the stereotype that women are stupider than and morally inferior to men.
This might not have been such a problem in the days when maternal mortality was running at 40% or so and, because of their propensity to marry young due to their total lack of life-skills, your average bitch wouldn’t last much beyond the age of 30, but now modern medicine allows them to live and that sickening sense of entitlement (the one that could choke a fucking sperm whale)that they develop doesn’t go away. Just look up there for proof, people.
Mrs Drew (your spelling and grammar suggest that if you come back here to read the comments you’ll skip to the end of the ones that have too many long words), don’t you think it’s sad that your personality seems not to have moved on since you were 14?
I believe lorei wrote this.Its pretty much what
people have thought all along. kirsten,josh evans
sarah drew, curt drew, ashley grills and as many a 6 other people or set personas set out to destroy a little girl and you did.No no charges have been filed,you think that mean you are not guilty.The you say Here I am Internet come
get me.At least we are playing fair..No amount if hand sanitizer can take the blood off your hands
I have a 13 year old And God forbid he should meet the likes of you.I am curious why you thought
megan was fat…That the crack pot calling the kettle Fat..You were jelous of thier meiers,
were you storing you foosball table with them,
just to keep an eye on them.you are repulsive .
CPS needs to come take the Drew’s daughter from Lori and Curt before they can damage her further. The examples they’ve taught her, the use of her as an excuse for their own despicable behavior, it’s all beyond simple bad parenting. It’s absolutely disgusting.
Take that child away and get her into a decent home with responsible, nurturing, well-adjusted parents before another generation of screwed up, sociopathic hate is unleashed on any more kids.
Wow, I do hope that Megan’s family sue’s the shit out of the Drew family! They are well within their rights and as the story unfolds, I’m sure Tina and Ron will have plenty to use as evidence to this tragic event.
You know, you have to worry and wonder about people like Lori. I am a single Mother of four children. My oldest is a girl who is now 18 and in college. I remember the “fights” she’d have with friends. I also remember that I never got involved with any of them! I can’t imagine why I would. Unless there was something criminal going on. Now, in this case a grown-ass woman portrayed herself to be a teen-age boy and allowed the conversations to turn sexual. Isn’t that a crime?
I really don’t know what else to say. I can say that all of my sympathy lies with Megan’s family and her true friends. Also to Lori’s daughter who was dragged into a national story because her Mother is a dumbass.
I know it’s wrong, but I believe there is a very special place in Hell for Lori Drew.
It is a sad sad situation no doubt, and what they did was wrong again no doubt. Criminal and or jail time no way. Obviously I am in the minority here but Lori I don’t think we will see you in hell.
Megan sounded slightly unstable and although Lori D may have helped push her there I believe her parents are more responsible for her actions than Lori D. If your daughter is that unstable you do not allow her to do things that apparently enrage her. Honeslty, I think it was not a matter of if Megan would have killed herself but when.
Typical of a woman whose sense of compassion and responsibility never matured past 5th grade to deflect all the ills of a relationship onto a 13 year old girl.
Hmmm Lori. Who was SUPPOSED to be the responsible one?
Ah. I remember. It was the PARENT.
It is too late for you to grow up. It’ll never happen, since it hasn’t by now. I only hope you’ll send your own children to be reared by REAL grown ups so they don’t fail to mature and end up to be as warped and sick as you are.
(shaking head)
ummm Lori Drew if that even is you, you’re still a crazy b*tch.
If you start to feel for lori drew,just read what
she posted as kirsten: Megan had it comming.

Josh evans,ashley grill,kirsten, sarah drew
The world would be a better place with out you
crazy child stalkers..Stay off the internet..
Your home computer has killed more people
than John hinkley gun..
Wow.
So yshe didn’t know how to deal with Megan bullying her daughter on Myspace? She obviously didn’t think about it too long, but there is the “block me” button, which beats the hell out of this evil bitch harassing a teenage girl.
I really can’t believe she is making herself out to be the victim here!!
Oh, and she must have felt SO terrible about Megan’s death…that’s why in the police report, she put that she didn’t feel as bad because she knew Megan had attempted suicide before. Come on!!
What it boils down to is that a grown woman harassed a teenage girl, and that’s why people are so pissed about it! And no, they can’t prosecute her for it, but she WILL be punished, as she is one of the most hated women in the country.
Lori Drew, have a shitty rest of your life.
I can almost sympathize. Almost. We all want to protect our children, but only the foolish actually try to. Life lessons are better learned young. Adults interfering unnecessarily in children’s affairs aren’t helping them in the least.
When all was said and done, you should have had the balls to apologize. You are defending your actions even though they were horrible. You couldn’t have known what would happen, but you did know that it wouldn’t come out rainbows and sunshine.
If this truly is Lori Drew, I think it is especially telling that she at no point takes responsibility for this situation. It was Megan’s fault for being a manipulative bully. It was the fault of the teenager who helped maintain the profile. It was the Meier’s fault for not stepping in and disciplining Megan. It was all the kids who joined the cabal and ganged up on Megan while Lori was at work. I mean Jeez, it appears that it was everyone’s fault but hers. And can I just say that I LOVE the “she started it” excuse coming from a grown woman. Ironically Mrs. Drew became the very person she was allegedly trying to stop Megan from being. Instead of taking the high road and teaching her daughter a valuable moral lesson, Mrs. Drew chose to engage in the very behavior from which she claims to be protecting her daughter. Clearly she feels her actions were justified which may be the most disturbing part of all.
Well, if that was written by Lori, it just shows she’s the psychopath I thought she was. No remorse, no sense of responsibility, justifying her own actions to the end. She stalked and seduced a little girl and pushed that girl to suicide by inflicting emotional abuse.
What a complete piece of crap Lori Drew is. And yes, her name will be kept alive on the internet forever more. There’s a Wikipedia page on the case. There are countless blogs and bulletin boards and news archives with the story. The story has been published in People Magazine and many others. It may quiet down somewhat, but it’s never, ever going away.
Someday, Lori’s daughter will realise what a complete psychopath her mother is and then I wonder what will happen….
Karma is a bitch, Lori Drew.
I hope Curt Drew divorces his bitch and takes away the girl. Lori needs to be tied up in the town square. Or maybe drawn and quartered. She is not good with choice, so let the internet decide. Maybe everyone should send her a Christmas card and stuff her mail box with good wishes.
Lori,
You went somewhere that no sane adult would ever dream of going. I had friends who were bullies when I was a kid, but my mom stayed the fuck out of it. Sarah should have delt with it herself; she would have come out of it a stronger, more complete person. Your actions are inexcusable! You can’t fight your child’s battles. What is Sarah going to do when she’s an adult and has REAL problems? And now you’ve given her a whole new set of problems, problems she should have to deal with. I feel sorry for Sarah for having the worst fucking mother of all time.
correction: You’ve given her a new set of problems she SHOULDN’T have to deal with.
I have two words for Megan’s parents. Civil Court. Sue this bitch’s pants off.
Lori, your empty excuses don’t fool anyone here. You are an immature, evil woman. If the shoe were on the other foot, you’d be pissed as hell, just like Megan’s parents. There is NO EXCUSE, NO VALID REASON AT ALL, that you can give for what you did to Megan.
GET OVER YOURSELF.
http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20071205/ap_on_re_us/internet_suicide_10
According to the above article Lori has had to close down her business and her daughter has had to drop out of school. Keep up the good work people. Only a matter of time before Lori hightails it out of town!
And? She should be run off the planet
I am sure there are many “civic minded folk” who would love to take Ms. Drew on a “hunting trip”. I for one, volunteer.

Mrs. Drew,
Two wrongs never make a right, and you are the adult. :(
Lori Drew is the type of person that has always yelled victim. She didnt’ start it, she was defending herself. Doens’t matter your actions hurt a child. It amazes me that she thinks her daughter was so innocent. I am in my 30′s and reading her blog it was very scarey because I have an internet enemy that sounds just like her. It’s amazing what women with no life think they can get away with!
I’m not going to blame one or the other. Yes, Lori did wrong by getting into her child’s personal teenage issues but, she was just trying to stick up for her daughter which I think any mother would do. As for meghan she just had plain issues (not to be so rude). I have severe depression problems to and I have tried to kill myself but never over a fake internet romance. Meghan’s parents should have listened to Lori and at least asked if thier daughter was okay and if she needed to talk or somehting. Plus didn’t her parents even teach her boy’s are not everything. Also Lori should have taught her daughter to stick up for herself when these high school feudes happen. But as usual its to late to do the real parenting now. *tisk**tisk*
I agree Lori acts as if her daughter was so innocent in this whole case. But some kids just know how to be sneaky while others every little thing they do they get caught.
And I believe this is the case with these two girls. They both taunted each other. But Lori didn’t see the bad her daughter did and her daughter acted sweet and innocent. But I bet she was just as guilty if not more guilty. With a mom like that how can she be that innocent?
I know as a teen me and my friends had our fights we never had the internet back then but we would ignore the other one and try to get our friends we hung with to ignore the one we were mad at.
Then a couple days later we were friends again.
Our parents stayed out of it, they let us work it out. And guess what we did and to this day we are still friends.
What Lori did is immature and cruel.
The law may not have pressed charges against her or her family but what the rest of the public is doing makes their life just as bad. They are pretty much a prisoner in their own home.
Their business closed down, her husband lost his job at the realtor company, her daughter had to quit school. The neighbors don’t want anything to do with them. If I were them I would move.
But doing anything to harm them physically is wrong, or harm any animal they may have. That is wrong.
I doubt Lori has learned a lesson here as she has never said she was sorry, she can’t even admit to what she has done. She is in denial.
One day it will hit her, one day karma will get her. And I am not saying as a threat but one day she will feel the pain that Megan’s mom is feeling.
And then she will see, maybe.
I am not sure she has a heart, maybe she is like the Tin Man no heart, and no brain, and no courage, because she hid behind her computer screen.
She is evil!
Plain and simple!
she does deserve hell mark.
and i cant beleive she got off??thats fucked!!what comes around goes around…
mark–she knew the girl was deppressed and she destroyed her knowing that.her parents did not viciously trick her…lori did
That’s one fucked up neighbor haha
While I find it sad and stupid that an adult would get involved in something as petty as Myspace Bullsh*t, I think it’s funny that no one is wondering why the parents of an obviously emotionally unstable child were allowing her to talk to some random boy online in the first place. Everyone gets bullied and picked on-online or not- we don’t hang ourselves because someone said something mean to us. That shows that Meghan had serious problems in the first place and she was not a baby either like everyone seems to think-she was of an age where if normal, she should be capable of rational thinking. Getting emotional as a teenage girl is normal-crying, screaming are all common. Getting sad because someone says you are mean is one thing-killing yourself is on the extreme end and a parent should know and be willing to acknowledge and help their child if they are depressed or mentally unstable like Meghan. Myspace is a place where people are supposed to be free to express themselves and talk to other people-meanness or not-if you don’t like it don’t accept comments and delete them as your friend. Maybe Meghan’s parents should have really been monitoring her Myspace Account and taken care of all that in the first place or realized that she was too sensitive to negative comments from other kids because of her low self-esteem and not opened up an account for her at all.
And if what Lori Drew says is true and even police officers are taking sides and not treating her and her family fairly, then that is sad and wrong because it is their job to remain unbiased no matter how pissed they are. Otherwise, take yourself off the case. We expect our public officials to conduct themselves in a professional manner and not take sides.
Lastly, don’t take this as supporting Lori Drew’s actions-I think that she was stupid and pathetic to take part in any of this at all-her daughter is the one who will suffer the most fallout because she will be hated at school and probably isolated. But that does not mean that the Drew’s are to blame for Meghan’s suicide-who’s to say that this emotionally unstable girl would have starting dating and gotten rejected and killed herself then? Her parents should ask themselve what they did wrong while Lori Drew should be kicking herself in her dumb ass for years to come.
Oh and another thing: what kind of responsible parent knowingly allows their thirteen year old daughter to strike up an online relationship with a 16 year old boy??
That’s what you call monitoring your child’s computer activity? You would be screaming obscenities at the Meiers’ if “Josh” had turned out to be a pedophile-and with the lack of self-esteem Meghan had she probably would have jumped at the chance to meet him too and gotten killed then. Stop enabling their crappy parenting skills- they failed as parents and so did Lori Drew. And don’t forget, those that are so eager to hunt down and hurt the Drew family, that counts as BULLYING TOO. So you are condoning the same actions that you are complaining about. What’s that old saying….two wrongs don’t make a right…..
What a load of BS that was. I cant believe that I actually read through all that crap and didnt vomit.
Although a few things come to mind after reading all that drivel:
1) If you seriously that terrified of a 13 year old girl, go to the police or something of that nature.
2) How is anyone to know that this whole situation started because of Megan and not Lori Drews daughter Sarah?
3) Lori Drew has obviously not passed the mentality of a 13 year old girl herself to act in such a catty manner.
4) Lori Drew is the reason some people should not be allowed to have kids.
My message to Lori Drew: You give women and mothers a bad name. Your mother must be proud that she raised such a vile c*nt like you. Being an outcast where you live is not enough punishment for you and the snotty little brat that you raised. A brick through your window, paint balls being shot at your house, nasty messages left on your answering machine & the media portarying you as a monster is nothing compared to what you deserve. Trust me honey, if it had been my daughter you had pulled that crap on…..there would be no place where you could hide, no rock big enough for you to crawl under cause I would haunt you and your disgusting family for the rest of your natural lives.
So if my daughter has a trouble with a friend of her, I have to kill her friend???..

hello bitch im back!! missed me?? just wanted to say..have shitty life!
I am sitting here in shock. I can’t believe that a “woman” who did something as cruel as this “woman” did would write an open letter and blame the child/parents! Does the dumbass know they will use this. I guess not because she thought she wasn’t going to get charged when she wrote this!! She will be shown to have no remorse and she was at the FUNERAL for Meagan! Did Ted Bundy have a sister?
The Meirs swore to protect their child too! They just had no idea it would be a parent/neighbor down the street! Drew had enough of a relationship with the Meirs to store a X-mas gift at their house, then she wanted to be mean to their kid and now she wants everyone to leave her child alone? KARMA!! AND she still is so ignorant to make a comment about childrens’ depression and that they lock themselves in their room and do not kill themselves?!?!? Something tells me that Drew and her family have gotten a crash course in depression and just what it feels like to be shunned, gossiped about and not wanting to leave the house to face the day!
IF this is really was written by Lori Drew, I find her words rather hypocritical. She blathers on about how the Meirs would see no evil in their daughter, and how lame it was that in their eyes their “precious daughter”, as she constantly called Megan, could do no wrong. Yet is this not exactly how she paints her OWN daughter? HER daughter was the innocent one, it was MEGAN who did all the nasty stuff. HER daughter is perfect and wonderful and amazing, Megan is twisted and evil and monstrous. Its so ironic how she does the very thing she attacks the Meirs for. This woman needs a SERIOUS reality check. How she could remain so self-righteous is beyond my level of comprehension.
I truly hope this letter was written by Lori Drew. I hope that the Judge reads the cold callous, inappropriateness of it, and sentences her to 5 years for each of the 4 counts – to run consecutively.
20 years is probably about the right sentence for this loser. I believe that she did not intend for Megan to kill herself, but I absolutely believe that she was enjoying her nasty prank. As eloquently as this letter is written, it is easy to read between the lines and see that. She has had plenty of time to “refine” her story, but it’s still there. No matter how moralistic she attempted to present herself, it’s pretty clear that she is a teenage-wanna-be.
It makes me sick when I see irresponsible parents. This woman not only thought of, set up and carried out this hateful idea – she involved her own daughter in it. What? Was it a “bonding moment” between mom and daughter?
Anyway, I hope that she ends up in prison. No doubt that she will end up in hell, at least for a reasonably long visit. I just hope her daughter grows up more mature than Lori did. Of course, it would be hard to NOT be more mature than Lori Drew.
Lori did act like a 13 year old herself. On the other hand who would ever expect that Megan would hang herself? I find it interesting that someone always “has to be to blame” when shit happens. Megan was not just depressed but unstable beyond reason . I don’t want to be cruel here but the mother is as much to blame as Lori, maybe more so. I have no doubt that Megan would have committed suicide within the next two years regardless of what anyone did (short of admitting her for long term treatment). Lori made a mistake and her ignorance can be equated with the everyday term “poor judgment”. We have all been guilty of “poor judgment” at some time of our lives. Most of us got lucky and suffered little if any consequences for our actions. Think back and tell me you have never done or said something that could possibly (though highly unlikely) cause someone to commit suicide? Megan so happened to be one of those cases and it’s really no ones fault or everyone’s fault. It’s time for everyone to move on.
Poor Judgment may be the understatement of the year Cindy. I think LD may have started out by making a poor decision to begin the scam on Megan Meir, but she graduated to evil when the relationship between “Josh” & Megan began to get beyond the level of friends. The reportedly sexually slanted messages exchanged by the “couple” would have made me very uncomfortable as an adult, but it appears she found it pretty amusing. And the cruel breakup and spreading of rumors about Megan involving the fictional Josh, along with the frantic cover up after Meg’s suicide, were the last straws and the final evidence to send Lori straight to hell in a wooden wheelbarrow.
If LD had been a man on the internet, pretending to be a teen and making sexual comments to a teen girl, he would be labelled a pedophile…why is Lori exempt?
I wonder about that too. That’s make no sense. She is a sick pervert like Fred Phelps.
I can not believe that you are saying that Megans parents are to blame!!!
Poor judgement is one thing, but setting out to destroy a young girl KNOWING that she was unstable goes beyond poor judgement. Some of the comments i read from people on this site make me wonder what fucking planet they beamed down from. This was definately one of them.
No seriously…you’re probably just as sick as she is. There is absolutely no justification to her actions. It’s not pointing a finger or playing a blame game. She told this girl she’d be better off dead, had sexual interactions with her, and harassed her online, which then prompted a child whom she knew was mentally unstable to kill herself. If that to you warrants no blame, than you need some serious therapy.
By your thinking, Osama bin Laden, Bernard Madoff, and Susan Smith made “bad judgements”. Did I compare Lori Drew to them? Maybe yes, but the point is Drew is an evil people with evil intents. Okay, she did not kill 3,000 people, scammed billions, or drown their own children. Frankly, I find you blaming the victim appalling. Drew is going to be hated besides Bin Laden, Madoff, and Fred Phelps.
“They lost their baby, and now they were tearing themselves apart because the pain wasn’t getting any better. I made sure to kiss and hug my Sarah every night and tell her how much I loved her. We actually grew closer from it.”
It’s nice to know that you and your daughter were able to bond from the joint murder of your neighbor. Charles Manson would be proud.
Or make Dean Corll (dubbed Houston mass murderer who killed at least 27 people with two other teenagers, Wayne Henley and David Brooks) and Osama bin Laden proud.
I agree. Wow, Lori. Must be feeling good about yourself. It takes killing your daughter’s ex-friend to be able to bond with your child. Whopee
Narcissism – When someone’s 13 year-old daughter begins acting disturbed and defensive, it is someone else’s daughter’s fault. Amazingly, the other girl’s parents can’t see how their daughter, who is a monster, is corrupting her daughter, the angel.
It’s kind of funny, until you think about how many parent’s could be filled into the blanks. Let’s just thank God that most of them can’t operate a MySpace account…
To an extent, parents are blind to their kids flaws. Most parents will claim that their children are the smartest, prettiest, most handsome, kindest, most adorable and wonderful kids in the history of the human race. Parents are naturally biased….well most of them anyway.
I dont think Lori is wrong for wanting to believe her daughter was in the right. I think she was wrong for getting involved in a teen squabble.
Most kids, when left to sort out problems, will do exactly that…they will sort out the problem. Either they decide to be friends or not. Its not that big of a deal.
Lori crossed so many lines. She may not have had charges brought against her, but she is guilty.
She cant even do the right thing and admit her errors and apologise to the family of this girl. She just makes excuse after excuse.
She is truely pathetic. I actually feel sorry for her daughter. What hope does she have of ever learning right from wrong with a mum like Lori?
I read today that the judge is thinking of excluding the suicide evidence, because its not what Lori Drew is on trial for.
I would hate to be either one of these parents. Im glad my kids are great!
“To an extent, parents are blind to their kids flaws. Most parents will claim that their children are the smartest, prettiest, most handsome, kindest, most adorable and wonderful kids in the history of the human race.”
and that’s usually the kids’ downfall, becaue they know of this bias and become bolder and more uncaring in their actions knowing there are no real consequences anymore. parent are more fans or friends than disciplinarians these days, and that’s a shame.
Huh?
i was responding to the comment amy made on november 11.
I understood you eternal.
For sure there is a special place in hell for a woman like this. Whether or not this is legit, I completely believe that Lori really feels this way, and for that I’m disgusted. How great of you to stoop to the level of a 13 year old girl. Your daughter should fight her own battles, and it doesn’t concern you. Oddly enough, you decide in all STUPIDITY to create yet ANOTHER fake online persona. Are you serious?
Congratulations on securing a spot in hell. I have no sympathy for you, or your fate. I hope you get convicted in your upcoming trial, since I’m sure you’ve noticed that they really ARE pressing charges now, just not in your state.
The sickest part is you seem to actually justify to yourself that all of this is warranted because you couldn’t foresee the death of this poor child happening, or that she, a THIRTEEN YEAR OLD GIRL did the same thing to your daughter.
You are an embarrassment to your family, and all those who cared for you. I pray that your ridiculous and inexcusable actions be made an example of for others who are as ignorant and disgusting as you.
I hope you go to hell, and your daughter suffers for the rest of her life. You both have blood on your hands! MURDERER!
You evil whore! You know what you did! …you know what you did.
I hate you! I want the trial to turn against you. You know in your heart you meant to harm her. And when you found out she died, you laughed. We will see WHO will laugh soon.
Lori drew ur a cunt and i hope u rot in the sewers of whores that pile up arund ur ugly rotten face
Lori Drew, if your duaghter was so hurt by these so called @internet attacks@…Why would u respond like a child yourself and do the same goddamn thing?..I hope you rot in hell and demons roast marshmallows over your slow-burning carcass… You’re nothing but a low-life nad i’m usually against the death penalty, but i’d make a fukcing exception for scum like you….
I hope Satan rips your cunt open, you fukcing whore…
believe it or not Lori, what goes around comes around. all of this childish therapy that you issued will come straight back on your child. you act more like a 13 yr old friend than a mother. bet your husband is really proud to be married to such a life wise WOMAN.You’re no better than your daughter because you are the one who instilled those values into your precious daughter. catherine
WTF???? That is the stupidest thing I have ever heard. I hope that people still fuck with her fat ass daughter. Im sure Megan had real friends. Lori is a damn liar or a fucken dumb ass, if this was even written by her. How do you not figure that this could be damaging to a young girl. You didnt like you daughter getting messed with you should have deleted her Myspace bullshit. Fuck what a stupid bitch.
“What goes around comes around?”
It already did, because Megan got what was coming to her.
Most of you are only reacting this way because you’ve had your mind made up for you by the media.
You’re victems. I for one feel sorry for you.
Ask yourself what it would take for you to do what Lori Drew did because that’s the only way you’ll understand.
So, Lori Drew’s new name is Trisha White? It must be as no human would belive in this statement. I hope some sick internet psycho preys on your daughter and destroys her emotionally so she kills herself. That would be justice. With a mother like you, there’s no way she can be sane, so just need someone to tip her over the edge that poor Megan wash pushed over. Don’t blame the media for not putting the facts out there as you want them. Facts are facts and you are a murderer.
There are a number of statements about Megan getting ‘revenge’. This is an acknowledgment by you that your little whining daughter started it all. She’s evil.
Hmmm….what would i do if my child was complaining that she was being picked on by one of her peers?
I know, i would go on the internet and concoct a false persona and talk smut to an unsuspecting teenager and then break her heart and tell her to go kill herself!!! Because that is what all mature women do, right?
Could she not have spoken to the girls parents? Her school administration? Gotten a restraining order?
Oh no..thats not the proper way. That would take maturity and brains, of which Lori ( aka Trisha) has none.
Grow up Trish, peferably before you procreate and totally fuck up your childrens lives.
It wasnt the media that made up our minds it was the way you acted.
So since “what goes around comes around” is being applied im sure none of us will be suprised when your daughter hangs herself in her closet, because of all the hate shes getting from people because of what you did.
This is the reason why I belive some people shouldn’t be alowed to raise children.
Its simple enuf….ur the adult with life experiences and should have grown out of these childish bulling ways a long time ago to teach & advise your daughter how to deal with it…. there’s a lot more to come as she grows older….every child has friends like this…its part of life and growing up…it’s unfortunate you took the path you did because now she’s got a whole new level of torture that she will have to deal with no thanks to you…a mother that was meant to protect her….
Hanging is too good for this crazy ass bitch!! I have a 15 year old daughter, who has her own Myspace account, but if she were being bullied, I would go to the parents, or the authorities, not pit a supposedly “adult” woman against the bully. She may not have to face her judgement on this earth, but I would hate to be her when she has to stand before God. The blood is on her hands just the same as if she’d taken a knife and stabbed this child. Everyone knows that teens are ultra sensitive, and one of the highest rates of suicide, but this crazy woman did what she did to “protect her daughter”???? She needs to be prosecuted for murder, plain and simple, and then also for luring a minor with sexual comments/innuendo. Death row is the right place for her, and Meagan’s parents should be the ones allowed to hold the needle when that day comes. If I were in Meagan’s parents shoes, I would think a little “vigilante justice” would be appropriate right about now. Rot in Hell you crazy child killing bitch! I don’t know how you sleep at night, although from your letter, it sounds like you’ve justified everything you’ve done for yourself. Typical of killers.
This whole thing apprently stemmed from Megan Meier allegedly calling Sarah Drew a “Lesbian”. I don’t think Lori Drew was protecting her daughter, but projecting her self-hate through her. Lori Drew most likely has homosexual tendencies and is likely homophobic. She does not want to be identified as homosexual and does everything to not be identified as one and lashes out as a result.
When she rots in prison, hopefully her cellmate will be Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, Bernard Madoff, and Robert Stanford. When she enters Hell, she will be along side with Joseph Stalin, Pol Pot, and 9/11 Hijackers.
I saw the blog and it had angry and nasty replies. Some were comparing Lori Drew to Joseph Stalin, Adolf Hitler, Saddam Hussein, Osama bin Laden, Ted Bundy, and Lee Harvey Oswald. Some went as far as calling her worse than Hitler and Bin Laden. Well, I cannot agree that she is Hitler or Bundy because she did not kill millions, start a war, send the World Trade Center crashing with thousands trapped, or bludgeon people to death, but she is no doubt reviled like they are.
I’m not going to insult or attempt to offend, I’d just like to ask you something.
Do you not think the death of a friend upset your daughter? When she grows older and she realizes the full extent of your involvement she will no doubt resent you and it will upset and tear the both of you apart!
You call Megan a manipulative girl in your blog but can you not see the hypocrisy of your behavior. You have been very immature and while it is upsetting to see your daughter hurt and bullied it is a life experience everyone is privy too. thanks to such bahavior people are shaped and become stronger and by protecting your daughter in such an extreme way you have surely caused more harm than good.
I feel deeply sorry for you and hope you have learnt from your mistake. Lets just hope that others can learn from this horrendous tragedy.
I agree with you on her behavior.
I mean really she tries to defend herself and she writes things like that.
You still blame the parents and it all on megan huh man i cant wait to see you put in jail.
Because of that “mentally ill ” girl as you put it. Wow your trying to defend yourself and yet you can still manage to act like a child doing it.
How does it feel to be one of the most hated women in america?
Your heard rumors about this girl did you actually read anything she said or you did this because of some he said she said childish bs.
Alot of people blame her death on you not your daughter btw.
Did you ever think of doing the adult thing and sit down with megan her parents and your daughter and actually talk about it? Oh yeah thats right if you actually did this wouldn’t be going on right now.
If you think its bad now just wait it will get worse for you.
Now I ask you was it really worth it your little mental game with a young 13 year old girl ,which helped in her death, and now your family will suffer and well mostly you ( im glad its affecting you not the fact its messing with your family) for the rest of your lives all because of a he said she said.
Yet I say again HOW DOES IT FEEL TO BE ONE OF THE MOST HATED WOMEN IN AMERICA?
p.s.
Go ahead and delete all the bad post you get with everyone you delete 10 more come back in its place.
Lori Drew is too stupid to even realize she is the most hated person in America. Besides, she is not in the same boat, she is sharing it with other evil scumbags like Osama bin Laden, Bernard Madoff, Fred Phelps, Casey Anthony, and Melissa Huckaby.
I meant to say she is in the same boat as those scumbags.
Clinically depressed teenagers NEVER attempt or commit suicide. Riiight. That is why suicide is the third leading cause of death among adolescents and teenagers 15-24 years of age. What an idiot.
AS A MOTHER YOU SHOULD HAVE SET A GOOD EXAMPLE FOR YOUR DAUGHTER. YOU SHOULD HAVE STEPPED UP TO TEACH HER THAT PETTY MYSPACE WARS ARE WRONG, AND REGARDLESS OF HER CRYING AND WHINING YOU SHOULD HAVE DE-ACTIVATED THAT ACCOUNT.
It’s enough that 13 year old girls are so bitchy to eachother without the socially retarded influence of a fat-assed mother who apparently has nothing better to do. No wonder everyone bloody hates her!
Good god, I’m 21 years old- nowhere near old enough to raise a teenaged daughter and I STILL KNOW better than that. Jeezus H. this story makes me MAD. Hell, hell, hell for the ignorant and malicious woman.
I know she didn’t really write this…
I am well aware that there are 2 sides to every story and the truth lies somewhere in the middle. Regardless, if she was trying to keep tabs on the malicious attacks on her daughter or whatever excuse she had for doing what she did, it doesn’t work. Things like this will never work. We as parents should teach our children to RISE ABOVE bad situations. What she did was wrong. That’s all there is to it. Had she taken the high road, this poor girl would not have taken her life. Whether or not she was suicidal to begin with, this woman fueled the girl’s fire. She is responsible for this girl’s death whether she wants to admit it or not. Pretty stupid act!
We do need to protect our children, but from monsters like LD!!
This statement has been revealed as a hoax; Lori didn’t write this.
What also is incorrect is Lori’s lie that the Josh Evans account was opened to keep tabs on Megan. The only intent it ever had was to elicit sexual feelings from a 13-year-old girl in order to emotionally damage her.
Regardless of how Judge Wu rules on July 2, a truly great thing the prosecutors achieved was entering into the official record many aspects of the story that hadn’t been made public. Lori’s hairdresser testified about how Lori boasted openly and proudly of how she was going to humiliate Megan through the Josh Evans account.
And Lori herself made the bizarre decision to put her daughter Sarah on the witness stand. The jurors all agreed that Sarah helped the prosecution more than the defense. Sarah testified openly about how she and her creepy troll of a mother talked gleefully for six weeks about the most damaging way to reveal the hoax to Megan when it was over.
The better people understand what a twisted creep Lori is, the better chance the decent people America have of enforcing the wiki punishment of the world’s first pure internet murderer. So however Judge Wu rules on July 2, eternal thanks to Thomas O’Brien and the people at the U.S. Attorney’s office in Los Angeles.
Its good to see that Lori Drew and her daughter were able to ‘grow closer’ from a 13 year olds death
What’s sad is, an adult, who know what she was doing was deadly, because she knew that the child she was playing mind games with was depressed.
Usually when you tell depressed people that they should ‘just go kill themselves because the world would be a better place without them’ they are going to do it.
To all you Drew supporters out there,
I just love how you can stand behind someone who knew the difference of right from wrong, but decided to play with a 13 year old CHILD’S mind.
I mean…fuck the Drews.
Their kid is still alive. I feel no pity towards them.
If Megan was such a bad influence, they should have cut all ties with her and let it be that.
Turned the other cheek to what she was doing.
It’s all about right from wrong here..
Right: Telling your daughter that her supposed friend wasn’t a friend at all if she’s going to be spiteful and spread nasty lies about her.
Wrong: Creating a myspace under false pretenses and telling a severely depressed child that they should die….
Now that Morals 101 has come to an end…
I bid you adieu.
Well said! Lori Drew is the most contemptible and worst scumbag besides Osama bin Laden and Adolf Hitler.
This woman pisses me off. I have never felt the need to jump into arguments my teen has had with friends, never needed to harass or hurt another kid, pretty much the teens ended up sorting it out between them. Why did I not get involved? Cause I am the adult and know that what she did is mean, cruel and wrong. I do not think she was worried about her daughter being bullied online cause it sounds like this girl had few friends and would likely be ignored by the majority of online classmates-No this woman just wanted to be a bitch and got off on her little game
“I wanted her to learn a lesson so she could be a better person. I didn’t want her to die.”
Yeah, well usually when I want to encourage someone to be a better person I don’t tell them the world would be better off without them, call them fat, or sluts, or any of the atrocious things Lori Drew’s simpleton brain cooked up to say to an obviously unstable 13 year old girl. The whole thing disgusts me. Talking over and over how Megan was depressed, so she couldn’t possibly have caused this. Telling a depressed person they would be better off dead, and you don’t think you need to take some responsibility? Rot in hell, Lori, you and your whole family can go to hell.
To Lori Drew
In this blog you are actually shooting yourself in the foot. In trying to clear your name you are portraying yourself as a very sick woman.
No healthy woman would get so involved in preventing kids from picking on their daughter. Just tell your daughter to stay off MySpace-period!
By setting up or even being involved in setting up a fake account is being a pathetic parent and role model. Trying to be your 13 year old daughter’s buddy is pathetic. You are to be her mentor, her teacher. You lead by example, not acting her age.
Your opinion of Megan is bitter, even long after her death. You show no remorse. Sure you didn’t physically hang her but you set her up for it. It is like being an accomplice. The driver of the getaway car didn’t do the crime but he was a part of the crime.
By not even showing a bit of remorse for what these people went through is just plain evil. You tried to get others to shut up, but they turned on you. That is because they have a conscience, unlike you.
It seems like you have suffered so much for what you did. If you were my friend and I found out you were involved in or even a part of harrassing a teenager on line I would dump you like a hot rock! Even if nobody died. What adult does that???You condemn Megan for having problems…look at yourself! You were 36 years older than her!!
I hope some day your life settles down but I am sure glad you have lost what you lost in doing this..your business, friends, reputation. None of that comes even close to losing a daughter.
I don’t think going to jail would have done you any good. You have put yourself in jail,,by being a coniving and evil person. You have got your punishment.
Honestly i think your a disgusting person. It is your fault, as well as your daughter not for Megans suicide but for putting a child down when your a (much) older women.GROW THE F**K UP! . My great grandmother use to say ” Ugly at face, Ugly at heart”. when your daughter commits suicide you will understand the pain and suffering this family is going through. Yet through reading all these blogs i still feel bad for you. you will do nothing with your life, your little coupon buisness and your ugly big daughter. You need to go to church and beg for forgiveness. Because at this point your life is worthless. how dare you have the nerve to go and try to comfort this family knowing your action contributed to this beautiful girls death. Your lucky that family was so calm because if that was me my family would have ripped you right out of your house and hung you off your front door. You make me sick.
Lori, you should just go kill yourself. The world would be better off without you.
I love how she tries to have righteous indignation. “My daughter was bullied so I bullied Megan! I was teaching her a lesson!”
Like she was some kind hearted soul who was not a dumb bitch in sheep’s clothing.
No, you were getting revenge by sinking to a childish level.
“Then I found out the parents were monitoring the account. OMG did they not care that their 13 year old daughter wanted to have heavy duty makeout sessions with a 16 year old???”
Gee, a 13 year old girl wanting to makeout with a 16 year old boy. What a horribly depraved slut! Please. As far as I know, a 16 year old boy kissing a 13 year old girl is not a felony or statutory rape or anything. Now, if she were talking about much more adult and pornographic topics, then maybe, but “wanting to makeout” shouldn’t raise any flags. And if the parents were monitoring it, then they would able to regulate any meetings the boy and Megan might’ve had.
Oh and BTW, let’s not forget that this was a 40 year old woman pretending to be a 16 year old boy who wanted to makeout with Megan.
And what about how she describes the parents as unbalanced, rambling messes for being mad about their daughter being hounded and humiliated thanks to a 40 year old woman pretending to be someone else until the girl kills herself. Yeah they have a right to be angry, but how they dare turn that anger on the person who took it upon themself to initiate a large bullying ring and turn the town’s kids against Megan????
Notice there were no stories about how “unbalanced” the parents were until AFTER Megan had killed herself? If they were really unbalanced and terrible, wouldn’t she have maybe mentioned something about that being the case BEFORE Megan’s suicide? Just checking cuz if they were raving lunatics after the death, it seems they were only that way because of it.
And how Lori tries to act like the victim here and how Megan’s parents are the real threats….and how she paints herself as a loving parent by talking about how she dotes on her lovely daughter.
And then at the end, how she tries to be big and tough by daring the internet to come after. Notice this was only AFTER she thought she was in the clear. It’s easy to be tough after the fact.
Her story is so self-centered and soooo full of holes. Idiotic bitch.
I hope this scarlet letter on Lori Drew’s dumb ass self never goes away.
LMAO SARAH DREW IS FAT, HOW CAN HER MOTHER CALL ANYONE ELSE THIS? Fuck you lori.
“I talked the situation over with people I knew and trusted, who told me to be very afraid. Teenage bullying was rampant on MySpace, and there were very few, if any, legal options for people being harassed.” – Lori Drew’s “statement”
…so basically you checked around to make sure you couldn’t get in trouble for what you were about to do.
its all just terrifying and tragic, I have 3yrol.d twin boys and a 8yr old daughter and I am scared of there upcoming school days,
It’s not cool to be mean to whales Mrs.Drew. You should know being one. Why don’t you become an an hero like Megan and hang yourself too? She was a baby whale so you might need something sturdier than a belt. Perhaps piano wire?
Lori Drew,
I have read you letter thoroughly, and still, I feel that your actions are inexcusable. The fact that you are trying to justify what you did is even more outrageous than the acts themselves. How dare you say that Tina and Ron Meier “showed their dark side”, THEY HAD JUST LOST A CHILD, you brainless woman. How would you feel if it had been your precious Sarah hanging in her closet instead of Megan?
I have been thirteen before, as you probably never were. I know what teenage girls were like at that age, as you probably don’t, whatever you might say. And I actually came across the situation which was close to what you have described in that note. My mother believe that a friend of mine was being a bad influence to me. AND she was spreading bad rumours about me at school. And my mother sure as hell didn’t go and set up an imaginary person to take that girl down. She called the girl’s mother and asked that we stop being friends, and that I’m never to talk to her again. Like a proper, mature adult, which YOU OBVIOUSLY ISN’T.
Seriously, I am beyond disgusted by your actions. But then again, to quote your own note “Megan’s feelings be damned, and to hell with her consequence!” You obviously don’t care that you had emotionally abused a 13-year-old, fragile or not. And I’m amazed that you have no remorse. I’m throwing back the last words Megan Meier read on her computer to you.
Have a shitty rest of your life, because you deserve it.
what a selfish fucking bitch….yea I’m talking about you Lori Drew. You obviously have no remorse for the fact that you were primarily responsible for the death of a young girl who was a teenager. YOU WERE THE ADULT. fucking amazing……
Even if this was true, I still think Lori Drew should go to hell. He’ll, a woman in her 40s should not even think about cyberbullying, let alone cause a teenager with most of her life still ahead of her to not even give it a chance!
