South Hadley, Massachusetts is the nice, comfortable middle-class suburb where Phoebe Prince was driven to commit suicide after incessant taunting, bullying and intimidation from a clique dubbed the “Mean Girls of South Hadley.” Nine teenagers have been indicted by Elizabeth Scheibel, Massachusetts District Attorney, for many actions that are believed to be the reason why Price committed eventual suicide. It was reported that many students and at least one school faculty member of South Hadley High School saw what the Mean Girls of Hadley did to Phoebe Prince. Dscriber said the events "went unreported to school administrators until after Pho! ebe's death."
15 years was all Phoebe Prince had
She had moved to her family's home from Ireland to a small Massachusetts town. Prince apparently had never seen anything like the bullying the Mean Girls of South Hadley had to offer bullying. The fact Phoebe Prince was pretty started getting the attention of the clique but her dating life of dating the senior football player while she was a freshman was too much for them to ignore. Others viewed and did nothing when she was constantly being "put in her place". That the Mean Girls of South Hadley were the “in” crowd enabled them to operate with more freedom than less popular bullies.
Some of the charges which were brought against the Mean Girls of South Hadley and accomplices.
This is what we know, per Dscriber:
- Sean Mulveyhill, 17 – statutory rape, violation of civil rights, criminal harassment, disturbance of a school assembly
- Austin Renaud, 18 – statutory rape
- Kayla Narey, 17 – violation of civil rights, criminal harassment, disturbance of a school assembly

- Sharon Chanon Velazquez, 16 – violation of civil rights as a youthful offender, stalking as a youthful offender
