TOPIC: Cruel bullies tormented schoolgirl, 15, with fake porn before she took her own life and then posted vile messages
The same teenagers who relentlessly bullied a 15-year-old until she took her own life mocked her suicide in the days after her death, the victim's family have revealed in a powerful essay posted online.
Matilda 'Tilly' Rosewarne was found dead by her father near her old cubby house at the family's home in Bathurst, in the central west of NSW, on the morning of February 16.
In an emotional essay, Tilly's uncle Sam Mason detailed how some of her classmates made disgusting jokes about the teenager's death. At the same time, he shared the grim reality of Tilly's death - and how her little sister saw her body in the backyard.
In an article published to LinkedIn on Wednesday night, Mr Mason said Tilly was the target of seven years of harassment by school bullies and was the victim of 'fake porn' being spread on Snapchat.
After taking her own life, Mr Mason said that those who tormented Tilly apparently found her death amusing.
'Within a day or so the jokes were already getting posted online in Snapchat and other social networks.
'The same kids that persecuted her quite literally to death thought it was funny - only days earlier Matilda had been told that she hadn't previously tried hard enough (to take her own life),' he wrote.
I can remember someone superimposing my face on a topless woman and I found that difficult to deal with because of the humiliation and the jokes/remarks from others and I was about 40 at the time.
I can't begin to imagine the torment a teenage girl must have felt.

Oh this is heartbreaking. More must be done to stop cyberbullying, maybe months in youth offenders, if the victim commits suicide they must do years, then transferred to an adult prison. They are responsible!.😠

When you were on dogs, You weren't afraid to do a bit of online bullying yourself. Knowing that you had the protection of being admin on the forum were you
Trying to play the victim on here won't work when so many know your past history.
Social media for anyone under 18 should be banned.
It would be impossible to ban under 18's. or under any age from social media.
Parents would have to supervise their kids at home, which many dont, and who would supervise them out of the home?
Social media should be controlled far more than it is by the organisations that provide it.
As for the young people who goaded the girl so badly it drove her to suicide....hopefully as they mature they will realise how cruel they were.
Such a heartbreaking situation for the poor girl and her family....this should never happen to anyone, sadly she isn't the first, and she won't be the last.
