As condolences pour in for a Halifax teenager who killed herself after allegedly being raped and photographed by four boys, the mother of B.C. cyberbullying victim Amanda Todd says she understands what Rehtaeh Parsons's family is going through.
Parsons, 17, died on the weekend after trying to take her life last Thursday. Her mother says she was raped by four boys when she was 15, and then became the victim of bullying and harassment after a picture of the night of the attack was circulated
Her death strikes an eerie resemblance to the case of Todd, who killed herself last fall at the age of 15 after she was cyberstalked for two years.
Carol Todd said she sent a letter to Rehtaeh's mother, Leah.
"I wrote to her that in my deepest of hearts that I am so sorry for what her and her family are going through, that I for one truly understand what she is going through and that I give her as much strength as I have," said Todd.
Amanda Todd, 15, of Port Coquitlam, B.C., killed herself last fall after she was cyberstalked. Her mother has urged parents to become internet savvy. (Facebook) No charges have been laid in Rehtaeh's case.
Her mother took to Facebook to tell her daughter's story and shame the alleged unnamed perpetrators. By Wednesday morning, an online petition calling for an inquiry into the police investigation had more than 6,000 signatures.
Nova Scotia Justice Minister Ross Landry said late Tuesday night he was asking his office to look into what actions could be taken in the case, but just hours before, he said his department can't second-guess every police investigation.
The statement adds that Landry hopes to meet with Parsons in the coming days.
Rehtaeh Parsons's funeral will be held on Saturday.
