Nine Mass. teens charged in a teens suicide

Fox 9 News reported that nine teenagers from Massachusetts have been charged with the bullying of a suicide victim.  Phoebe Prince committed suicide on Jan. 14 after months of bullying, raped, and stalked.  The abuse that Prince endured was "intolerable", Elizabeth Scheibel said, the Northwestern District Attorney

The charges the six teens will face include statutory rape, assault, violation of civil rights resulting in injury, criminal harassment, disturbance of school assembly, and stalking.  Three of the teens also face delinquency charges.

The school supposedly knew about the bullying but did not do anything to stop it.

Prince moved to Massachusetts from Ireland recently.
