Hello, our little creeps and freaks. This week, Courtney is telling probably our most difficult story to date. In 2012, Amanda Todd was a 15 year old girl from Canada. She had the world at her fingertips and had dreams of becoming a famous singer. She unfortunately fell into the dark world of cyber bullying and was exploited over and over again by an online predator and subsequently became the target of incessant bullying at school. Please listen to Amanda's story with caution, as this case discusses sexual exploitation of minors, child pornography, bullying and suicide.
