More on Megan

I was speechless, horrified, repulsed when I first read and blogged on the story of Megan Meier. I was not alone. Even the snarkiest among us sought time for reflection upon consideration of Megan's story.

I am still repulsed and angry over this heinious act of barbarism. It goes beyond malevolent. It goes beyond vicious. It is obscene.

I find myself still without words to express my sheer outrage at these degenerates. It seems that Lori and Curt Drew have been outed. The blog, Death By 1000 Papercuts is continuing with the story. Go there. Let the chips fall.

I don't know what to say. This is an awful, awful thing.

On one hand, I think she died of a broken heart; a crime with only a victim.

On the other, she appears to have been driven to suicide directly at the hands of the other kid's parents. Who felt so bad about it they filed charges over a #$!@-ing foosball table.

I wouldn't condone it, but they're damn lucky the axe went only into the foosball table.

I think I, too, will have to take a bit of time to ponder this.

There are laws to cover this, the police just don't care to press the issue. This story came out into the open because of a similar story. In the other case, a girl (around 17 or 18) was being cyberstalked and harrased by a boy (around 17, too). The boy heightened his cyberattacks to threats of rape and other heinous physical assualts. The result was that the police and CITY attorney charged the boy with littering. Yes, you read that right: LITTERING!!!!

Until we can change the institutional attitude of law enforcement (both police and attornies) to consider online harassment the same as any other harassment we will have this "there is no law that covers this" BS.

This woman, Lori Drew, should be charged with depraived indifference to life, child abuse, and stalking. She should be required to register on any child abuse registries which would eliminate her ability to be involved with other kids--either at school, church, sports leagues, etc.

Isn't it ironic, that these words typed to Megan Meier apply so well to Lori and Curt Drew?

"Give it a rest", is what Mrs. Meier said that the Drews told her in response to what's going on (on Anderson Cooper 360).

"Give it a rest"??? Oh, no no no no...now that this is coming to public light, Lori Drew will NEVER have another moment's rest and for good reason!

The woman who has been outed as the one who harassed Megan Meier of the MySpace suicide tragedy is Lori J. Drew. Her husband is Curt Drew. She owns an advertising/mailer business called 'The Drew Advantage' in O'Fallon, Missouri, on Highway K.

The businesses who do business with her are listed below. Her husband, Curt, is a real estate agent in O'Fallon (http://www.cbgundaker.com/search/agent/detail.jsp?publicid=CCUDREW). Perhaps, if Lori lost some business, she'd decide to move and let the Meiers' grieve in peace without being sickened everytime they walk out the door.

The businesses below were posted on one of the blogs that outed them. The blog this was copied from is located here: http://blog.wired.com/27bstroke6/2007/11/blog-readers-ou.html

LET THESE ADVERTISERS KNOW THAT IF THEY CONTINUE TO DO BUSINESS WITH LORI DREW, THEY WILL CONTINUE TO GET BAD PUBLICITY. THESE BUSINESSES ARE HELPING LORI PAY FOR THE INTERNET SERVICE THAT WAS USED TO HARASS MEGAN MEIER TO DEATH!!!!

Ms. Drew used the same same exact mode of operation as a child predator enacts in the seduction of a child.

Drew posed as a member of the opposite sex and spent weeks and weeks luring this girl into a relationship.

But yet it went further. The adult Drew formed a heated relationship with the 13 year old girl. She worked hard to gain the girl's confidence. She exploited the girl intimately by posing as a boyfriend. She enacted the same methods child predators use to groom their victims.

Then the woman emotionally raped this child. She took her supposed love and sexual stimulation and crushed the girl emotionally with them -all while knowing the girl was unstable.

This adult and her friends calculated the best way to achieve maximum mental distress and then carried out their plan. Even enticed others to join in the destruction of this child.

There are manslaughter convictions on the books that won based on looser ties to a person's death than this. Child predators go to jail for following this scenerio.

Ms. Drew is the clear definition of a child predator. She used the internet to stalk, entice and lure a 13 year old girl into a romantic, sexually sparked, full fledged relationship. She then used that power to inflict Great Mental Harm to this child... A physical rape and mental rape are both as equally destructive to a 13 year old child. Drew knew this (or should have known this) and still proceeded unabated.


This is so far beyond "Harassment", this is full fledged exploitation of a child.

Is the local police of this county out of their minds to think that NO charge will stick?

Is the local District Attorneys office serious if they don't think this girl's rights have been thoroughly trampled by a grown woman?

Does the DA really expect people to roll over while this woman goes without so much as even a single charge?

Does even a speeding ticket register a more serious offense than this?

_____________

Last of all, the very worst. Ms. Drew remains defiant and indignant. Claims the girl was already on the edge mentally.

Ms. Drew denies wrong doing and insists she bears no guilt in her actions.

She justifies her actions as being "protective of her daughter"... Please tell me how she was protecting someone by mind raping a 13 year old child?

To add insult to incredible injury.... The Drews file charges against the family that lost this child.

The Drews, in a final act of ultimate hate, seek to hurt this family who lost a beloved child. She seeks to harm them financially....

Just as MS. Drew attacked an innocent little girl, Ms. Drew now attacks a grief stricken family - again seeking to harm someone's very life.

This woman is evil incarnate

This woman has county officials protecting her...


The same county officials who would put ANY other child exploiter in jail.

It would appear we have a few corrupt city officials. Officials who need to be fired

Perhaps the county detectives on the case need some scrutiny. Did they really investigate this crime thoroughly? Apparently not.

There had better be some charges...and some heads better role from this complete mismanagement of law enforcement.

First of all my deepest sympathy to Megan's Parents and real friends.

I have a caving pal who is now retired from being a prison officer.

I am told that in prison, child abusers generally end up in solitary for their own safety. Even other child abusers are a threat to their lives.

Even the scummiest of incarcerated mutants have siblings, Children of their own, nephews and neices, they also have few qualms about getting a longer sentance for beating, mutilating or even killing a child abuser.

Prison officers must all develop a really tough mental armour to be able to work with mutants. I'm sure some would not have great difficulty being in another place when "the trouble happens".

Just my observations

On Wednesday, October 21st, city officials enacted an ordinance designed to address the public outcry for justice in the Megan Meier tragedy. The six member Board of Aldermen made Internet harassment a misdemeanor, punishable by up to a $500 fine and 90 days in jail.

Does this new law provide any justice for Megan? Does this law provide equitable relief for a future victim or actually weaken the current law?

I reject the premise of this new law and believe it completely misses the mark. The reasoning behind this opinion is that city officials have consistently treated this case as an Internet harassment case instead of a child welfare/exploitation case.

Classifying this case a harassment issue completely fails to address the most serious aspects of the methods Lori Drew employed to lead this youth to her demise. The Vice disagrees that harassment was even a factor in this case until just a couple of days before Megan's death.

Considering this case a harassment issue is incorrect because during the 5 weeks Lori Drew baited and groomed her victim, the attention was NOT unwanted attention. It was not harassment at all. It was invited attention. Megan participated in the conversations willingly because she was lured, manipulated and exploited without her knowledge.

This law willfully sets a precedent that future child exploiters and predators can use to reclassify their cases to harassment issues. In effect, the law enacted to give Megan justice, may make her even more vulnerable. So long as the child victim doesn't tell the predator to stop, even a harassment charge may not stick with the right circumstances and a good defender.

Every aspect of this case follows the same procedural requirement used to convict a Child Predator. A child was manipulated by an adult. A child was engaged in sexually explicit conversation (as acknowledged by Lori Drew herself). An adult imposed her will on a child by misleading her, using a profile designed to sexually or intimately attract the 13 year old Megan.

Lori then utilized the power she had gained over this child to cause significant distress and endangerment to that child. She even stipulated to many of these activities in the police report she filed shortly after Megan's death.

We can go on and on here, but the parallels between this case and many other child predator cases that are successfully prosecuted bear striking similarities.

Child Predator laws do not require much more than simply proving that an adult has engaged a minor in sexually explicit conversation. Lori Drew has already stipulated that her conversations with Megan were sometimes sexual for a child Megan's age.

City officials who continue to ignore this viable, documented admission and continue to address this issue as harassment are intentionally burying their heads in the sand, when the solution is staring them right in the face. Why?

On June 5th, 2006, Governor Matt Blunt signed into law stiff penalties for convicted sex offenders. The Vice believes that officials continually reject a child predator classification of this case in order to keep the penalty of this offense out of this harsher realm.

Opponents of this law are active in defeating this law not by changing it, but by disqualifying cases like Megan's from ever being heard.

There are several other child exploitation laws on the books. To date, none of them have even been considered by City, State and Federal officials in this case. I'm outraged that a motion was never even filed, so that the case could at least be argued before a judge or jury.

Those satisfied with this response out of Missouri officials need to think through the effect this law will truly have. It quite honestly has the potential to directly undermine Jessica's law. It quiet easily gives prosecutors a way out of prosecuting child endangerment and child predator cases in the future.

Beware the wolf in sheep's clothing here.

Town Shuns Family Over Hoax, Suicide

Filed Under: Nation News

DARDENNE PRAIRIE, Mo. (Dec. 6) - Waterford Crystal Drive is one of those suburban streets that seem so new as to have no history at all. But the suicide of a teenage girl - and allegations she had been tormented by a neighbor over the Internet - have brought a reaction that is old, almost tribal, in its nature.
