Mother of Girl Taunted Online Urges New Laws

The mother of a teenage girl who committed suicide after being taunted online urged a state task force on Internet harassment to recommend criminalizing such behavior. Gov. Matt Blunt formed the task force in response to the death of Tina Meier's 13-year-old daughter, Megan, who killed herself last year after being teased on her MySpace page by a fictional teenage boy named "Josh."
