Cyber Bullying Stories

Jessica Logan 1990-2008

Jessica (Jesse) Logan, was a petite, blond-haired, blue-eyed Ohio high school senior who killed herself after sending a nude photo of herself to her boyfriend. When they broke up, he sent the photo to everyone else at her school. Jesse was cruelly harassed for months by the other girls at her school, who called her abusive names (you know the type). When Jessie’s grades dropped, she started skipping school and when she did go to school, she would hide in the bathroom to avoid being teased.

Jesse Logan decided to tell her story on a Cincinnati television station. Her purpose was simple: “I just want to make sure no one else will have to go through this again.” The interview was in May 2008. Two months later, on July 3, 2008, Jessie attended the funeral of a boy who killed himself, then came home and killed herself.

Her mother found her hanging in the closet with Jessie’s cell phone on the floor nearby.
