Dropped Charged against girls cyber-bullying suicide case

Charges were dropped against two girls who were harassing a 12- year old girl before she committed suicide. Two girls were arrested more than a month after Florida girl Rebecca Sedwick jumped off of a cement plant after over a month of physical, verbal, and online bullying. The judge gave the two girls and third degree felony, which later was dropped, but hasn't been told why due to the girls being juveniles. A lawyer for Rebecca's mother said that she was disappointed that the charges were being dropped. While these two girls were being arrested the sheriff alleged that they were "maliciously harassing" Rebecca. Lawyer for the 12 year old girl said that they use to be best friends before this "fall-out." As for the 14 year old she posted a facebook status saying she did not care that Rebecca Sedwick was dead. After all of this Sedwick's mother is saying she still is going to sew the school officials and the parents of the girls tormentors. Hoping that she and Rebecca could get some justice.
