Three alleged bullies have been suspended from a Florida hockey league after they were accused of driving a 16-year-old girl to suicide when she started talking to one of their ex-boyfriends.
McKenna Brown, of Pinellas County, killed herself in August after she was ruthlessly bullied and harassed online by girls she had been friends with for years.
Within just five days of the events unfolding, the 16-year-old took her own life. Unearthed texts revealed the barrage of abuse – as her teammates attempted to ‘cancel’ and embarrass her for chatting to one of their exes.
Three female players, who were not identified, were accused of cyberbullying and have now been suspended from the Lightning High School Hockey League.
McKenna’s devastated parents Cheryl and Hunter Brown claim their daughter was severely harassed by the girls – who she had hung out with a few days prior to her passing.
Despite their actions, the girls still attended McKenna’s funeral, but did not speak to her parents. They were disturbed by the alleged tormentors’ presence.
