A ten-year-old North Carolina girl took her own life in her bedroom after allegedly being bullied at school, local authorities say.
Her mother, Samantha West, found 10-year-old Jasmine McClain hanging with a belt around her neck in their home.
Chadbourn Police Chief Steven Shaw ruled the death a suicide but his investigation lead him to Facebook where comments had been posted by Jasmine’s classmates that she had been targeted.
Chief Shaw said: ‘Children started coming forward and making accusations that she was bullied – and bullied bad – in school.’
