Are we slowly moving to the point where not just sticks and stones can break your bones, but words can too???

I think this is a case where she went a little above and beyond just standing by and doing nothing.

I implore you to read up on the case and actually read the text messages that were exchanged before making such a broad statement.

She manipulated the guy into killing himself and was in a position to prevent or encourage the death. In a way the idea isn't too dissimilar to what happened with Charles Manson. He just used words too and didn't physically do anything. Just an FYI that was almost 50 years ago.

You should read the text messages. She berated him for not killing himself, calling him a pussy, coward, etc. She told him to buy a generator and a hose. It was ridiculous

Well, it's not exactly like she just called him "stinky-poopie pants" or said he had cooties. She talked an obviously mentally disturbed teenager into killing himself. That's a bit different.
