Amanda Todd was just 15-years-old when she committed suicide on October 10, 2012. She had been the victim of relentless cyberbullying due to an older man taking advantage of her and convincing her to show her breasts online. That man then distributed the sexual photos of Amanda to her schoolmates, instigating the bullying that would come. She created a video and posted it to YouTube, showing flashcards that explained her story just before her death, which went viral and highlighted the growing issues of cyberbullying. This is her story.
