LEARNED ABOUT THE BULLYING
FROM LOGAN'S FRIENDS AT HIS

bullying and then all of them
was telling me about how Logan
had stepped in and stopped
these bullies from picking on
them at different times."

LILY AND EMILIE ALL STRUGGLED
WITH THEIR SEXUALITY.
INVESTIGATORS WROTE THEY
COULDN'T PROVE SHE WAS A
VICTIM OF BULLYING. POLICE
REPORTS FOR LOGAN AND LILY'S

CONTACTED THE SCHOOL BECAUSE
LILY STARTED CUTTING HERSELF.

to say they did call me a
couple of times to tell me
that she was having changes in

truth. It has no agenda. My
daughter deserves that." DR.
BARRY FELDMAN, IS ONE OF THE
NATION'S LEADING EXPERTS IN
BULLYING AND YOUTH SUICIDE.
It's important to do these
investigations but not just
from a police perspective.
It's important to have
behavioral health experts
involved because often times
there are warning signs,
indicators that a child may be
struggling." DR. FELDMAN ALSO
SAYS THREE SUICIDES BY
STUDENTS WHO ATTENDED THE SAME
SCHOOL IS A RED FLAG.
It certainly sounds like a
cluster whether there was a
contagion effect, that remains
to be investigated."
