Samantha Kelly a 15-year-old hung herself on November 8, 2010 following months of harassment and taunting following her making rape allegations against a senior at her highschool. According to her mother, June Justice, the Huron Township (Michigan) teen finally collapsed under the stress and killed herself.  In September 2010, Samantha and her mother went to the police the day after Samantha’s alleged encounter with an 18-year-old to file a sexual assault report.  Following Samantha’s death the accused teen was not charged and third-degree criminal sexual conduct charges were dropped.

Samantha’s friends created this memorial video:
