this mother is a sicko
Imagine being relentlessly cyberbullied for over a year, only to find out the troll trying to destroy your life is sleeping right down the hall.
In 2021, a high schooler named Lauryn Licari started receiving a flood of vicious, harassing messages from an anonymous number. The cyberbullying was so toxic and relentless that her mother, Kendra, completely stepped up to help.
Kendra went to the school board, complained to the administration, and even teamed up with the mother of Lauryn's boyfriend to try and hunt down the culprit.
When the school couldn't figure it out, local law enforcement stepped in. When they couldn't crack the fake numbers, they had to bring in the literal FBI.
Computer experts spent months analyzing IP addresses and cracking VPNs, expecting to bust a jealous classmate. Instead, they traced the digital footprint right back to Lauryn's own living room.
The relentless troll wasn't a high school rival. It was her own mother.
Kendra had used virtual private networks, fake area codes, and teen slang to send her own daughter thousands of hateful messages, just so she could play the role of the comforting, protective hero. She ended up facing serious felony charges.
