Sexting leads to suicide

http://doubledoublethoughts.blogspot.com - Jessie Logan,18 committed suicide after nude photos that she had sms'd to her boyfriend were spread to hundreds Jesse Logan, or Jessica Logan by some, was a teen girl from Cincinnati, Ohio. When you read this article, Jessie Logan had left this world for more than 8 months – she committed suicide in a what-was-called a sexting suicide tragedy in July, of 2008. She was 18.

Jesse was the only daughter of her mother Cynthia Logan.

She studied at Cincinnati’s Sycamore High School and hoped to be enrolled to University of Cincinnati to study graphic design. She was pretty and smart as can be sensed from her picture.

At an age when many teens are easy to fancy their lovers, Jessie Logan had a boyfriend herself. She trusted him to the extent that her trust led Jessie to make a definitely stupid (and deadly) move ever – she "smsed" nude pictures she took using the cellphone to the boy.

The nightmare immediately began haunting Jessica Logan after the breakup from her boyfriend. He smsed her intimate pics to other female schoolmates who consequently harassed Jesse, called her a slut and a whore.

Having suffered all the insults she shouldn’t have received, Jessie Logan became miserable and depressed, afraid to even go to school. Still, she was brave enough to appear on a local TV station with a purpose to give her advice on other girls not to take part in “sexting”, in her words, “I just want to make sure no one else will have to go through this again.

Sadly, two months after that TV interview, and probably because she couldn’t endure more bullies, Jessica Logan ended her life by hanging herself in her bedroom after she attended the funeral of a friend who committed suicide.
