Megan Meier Suicide - News that the suicide death last year of 13-year-old Megan Meier was due to MySpace taunting by adult neighbors rocked St. Charles Missouri.
After Megan Meier’s MySpace suicide, all her parents - Tina Meier and Ron Meier - have left of their daughter is her remains in the mausoleum.
In a parents worst nightmare, the mother of a neighbor girl that Meagan Meier was no longer friends with set up a fake MySpace account and proceeded to hound her to death.
The woman, a male employee of her company, and her daughter all duped the unsuspecting Megan into thinking “Josh Evans” was real, conned their way into gaining her trust, and then viciously attacked an already emotionally vulnerable youngster. Â
The result? 13-year old Megan hung herself in her closet while her mom made dinner downstairs and talked with her husband about how the whole MySpace experience was troubling their daughter.
Read the excellent news article here with complete details about the heartbreaking Megan Meier MySpace suicide:
And that’s the sad news about the death of a 13-year old girl caused by MySpace taunting, the Megan Meier Suicide.

It’s the only house in that neighborhood that Tina Meier sold (she’s an agent). That sale was April 6, of 2005 (2.5 years ago). It’s the only house on that street that has sold since 2004. And it’s right down the street from the Meier’s (251 Waterford Crystal). It’s a firm match.
All the info one would need to find them is in the article, why not just name them?
Now, they need to be run out of town

There are journalists in the St. Louis area who disagree with the decision not to name the hoaxers. But it’s not universal–when they showed the police report on TV tonight, the names were blurred.
The argument the reporter gave is that the hoaxers have not been convicted or even charged with a crime.
I’m not sure if I agree with the decision or not. I wrote for a newspaper 10 years ago and criminal justice was my beat. I’m not sure what I would do, to be honest.
What I will say is that there were enough clues in the story for someone with a reasonable attention span and good knowledge of search engines to find the other family. The reporter probably knew that at least a few readers would succeed in identifying the family. What the reporter (and the Meiers) wouldn’t want would be for the name to be published, and then a bunch of people Google the name, then either show up in the front yard or start mailing them unpleasant stuff.
A good friend of mine lives very close to them (probably half a mile). He and I did some searching and tried to figure out who the family was. All he plans to do with the information is stay away from these people, and keep his three daughters as far away from them as possible.
Fortunately for my family and me, I live 45 minutes away.

Her son Blaine rather herocially assisted in attempts to revive Megan the night she hanged herself.

Hate machine? I will give every benefit of human compassion to Lori Drew. Her act was vile, but done out of a misguided attmempt to protect her own child. I suspect Drew is probably a damaged person, and may have suffered from rejection and peer attacks in her teens that warped her in ways that carried into adulthood.
Unfortunately she is the Vic Morrow of helicopter parents.
I hope the shame of this sticks her hard, hard enough that she stops trying to avoid public blame, and takes responsibility for what she set in motion.

Not to spoil a good old fashioned angy mob scene or anything… but do try to remember that newspapers often get things wrong. Perhaps everyone can wait to get out the torches and pitchforks at least until at least it’s known for sure that the facts are as portrayed in that article.
November 16th, 2007 at 10:58 am
@Lloyd:
Who cares about the law. It is obvious they aren’t going to do anything about this little girls death. You also don’t understand how opinions work. Please stop trying to stick up for these pile of crap human beings who deserve every prank phone call, unsolicited email and flaming bag of dog crap that ends up in their life.
November 16th, 2007 at 11:02 am
Shut up, Lloyd.

Of course there’s no LAW regarding this crime - it’s so vile and unspeakable, no decent person would ever think of it.
November 16th, 2007 at 12:42 pm
“You people need to shut your damn holier-than-thou mouths. None of you know what you are talking about. You don’t know LAW for one, and you don’t know any details of this circumstance. Stop having opinions over things you know NOTHING about.”
Nice.. none of us know anything and we should STOP having opinions. Maybe you’re the party in question. Maybe you would like to fill us in on these things we don’t know, bring us up to speed as it were.. you imply that you have information we don’t. By the way, I’m a lawyer.. what LAW do you think don’t I know?? Maybe you are the one that needs to shut their ‘holier-than-thou’ mouth.
November 16th, 2007 at 1:34 pm
You know this sounds an awful lot like an angry mob. Its like you’re all wielding your proverbial pitchforks and torches. You have a noose hanging over a tree already. Forget justice, you just want appeasement. Who needs a judge and jury when we have a news article and a few blog posts?
Quit acting like the woman you are all claiming to hate so much.
You want change do what the Miers ask. Call your senator or congressman and ask for a law to be made up. Don’t become an angry mob of internet vigilantes.
November 16th, 2007 at 1:37 pm
Lloyd, You’re a piece of puke. What makes you know anything about the law? What makes your the voice of this case? These people are MURDERERS, not in the direct sense but indirectly. These people are the scum of the earth like you. They don’t deserve to breathe. Bunch of bullies. I wonder what the mental capacity is for that pig of a mother to torment a teenage girl who she knew was taking depressants and was overweight. KARMA will pay these people back in a hard way, hopefully in death.
November 16th, 2007 at 2:10 pm
ah, Lloyd is a dumbass. i’m sure all these people read the same story I did, so I think they now a little bit of something.
November 16th, 2007 at 2:20 pm
@Lloyd: Don’t be ridiculous, its the internets, where we all get to violently thrash in our orgasm of unfounded opinions and facts.
/sarcasm
November 16th, 2007 at 2:51 pm
lloyd, why don’t you explain what you do know, instead of what the hoi polloi don’t.
And some do have details. From Lori Drew’s own statements, not only the account of her family and friends.
And some may know the law better than you.
A Civil remedy exists and should be sought, I’m not in favor of new laws to restrict online communication or content.
Here, even a generous- to-Drew view leaves a strong case for IIED.
The general improbability of prevailing in an IIED suit is well known in the law, but here is the case to win if there ever was one.
Until she repents and atones, Lori Drew should be shunned wherever she lives. And should she repent and atone, she can never, and never should, recover the full trust of anyone.
November 16th, 2007 at 2:58 pm
Lloyd, I think you are inappropriately responding to the outrage expressed. (And is profanity really necessary? Typically, it is the refuge of the less-than-intelligent.)
A young woman is dead. Adults played a role in a mean-spirited prank — behavior one would only expect from a child. And, I repeat, a young woman is dead because people who should have known better were so hopelessly damaged and hateful. Bottom line: Regardless of whether there’s a legal recourse, the outrageousness of the situation inspires strong feelings. I have no sympathy for the Drew family. That’s not holier-than-thou, that’s simply a reasonable response to a horrific situation.
November 16th, 2007 at 2:58 pm
What do you mean we don’t know details of this “circumstance” Lloyd. It has been reported quite well, what more do we need? The made for TV movie? The autobiography of the parents, both sides?
These people did an insanely stupid thing, there is no “holier-than-thou” involved in saying what the adults who did this was BEYOND wrong. Any rational person would, I assume, know that…
November 16th, 2007 at 3:24 pm
This poor excuse for a woman used to live down the street from us and I always thought she was not quite right - DUH!!!! The Drew Ad vantage is an advertising booklet for local businesses. Anyone in the O’Fallon/Dardenne Prairie area should call the businesses in that flyer and suggest that they reconsider doing business with these “people”. I did try to locate one of these flyers last night and was unsuccessful. Hmmmm???
November 16th, 2007 at 3:28 pm
I also confirm it — for a breif moment on the original local story page Megan’s Aunt made a post and said “if i ‘Drew’ you a picture it could not be clearer” which says to me that it was in fact LORI DREW. What a cruel and hearless woman.
LORI DREW CAUSED MEGAN MEIER’S DEATH.
November 16th, 2007 at 4:04 pm
I just stumbled across this site. I am so upset by this story and have been for several days after hearing about it. It’s nice to see others are as bothered by this as me.
Just an FYI…
This is the response I received from the Sherriff when asked why charges weren’t filed. They seem to be more curious as to what the Meirer’s motive is bringing this up a year later..How sick is that? Just because this family is finally letting the public know of their tremendous heartbreak and lack of justice, they’re looked at as the bad guy because they are stirring it up again in the sherrif’s eyes.
Their Response….
“The FBI and local law enforcement investigated this event last year and determined there are no CRIMINAL violations to charge. We can only enforce the laws enacted by others. We cannot STRETCH the law to fit the desires of society to right a terrible wrong. One might question why this outrage was dormant for more than a year. The only entity to benefit now from reliving the events is the media .”
I then asked….
From what I understand, the family was told to stay quiet while the
investigation was going on. Therefore they are now free to speak
about the events. Is this not the case?
Their response…
Once again, that was last year.
November 16th, 2007 at 5:03 pm
The difference between what Ms. Drew did to this girl and what this mob is doing to Ms. Drew can be found in “intent.”
I can’t defend Ms. Drew’s actions, but nor can I defend many of these postings. It scares me how much hate begets hate.
How many of you would say that America is a Christian nation? This is a matter for Christ and the law. I’m sure I’ll read all about “an eye for an eye,” but that is so Old Testament. It’s time to turn toward faith. Pray for the Meier family. Pray for the Drew family. Pray for peaceful resolution.
Concerned Says said it: “Quit acting like the woman you are all claiming to hate so much.”
November 16th, 2007 at 5:09 pm
My name is Blaine Buckles and i have known the Meiers my entire life. I live right next to the Drew’s and they are the ones who caused all of this for Megan. They are some of the most sick and vile people i know. What they did will never be forgiven. It is all true, and if you dont believe me check the police report that Lori Drew herself confessed to everything. P.S. Lloyd you are a moron, they have every right to be angry, you sound like you dont know anything about law. I believe in our United States consistution there is a little something about “freedom of speech” and peoples opinions matter and they have every right to speak what they think. So why dont you just shut your damn holier-than-thou mouth.
November 16th, 2007 at 6:27 pm
Curt and Lori Drew are seriously evil people. The fact that they had th eballs to file a police report over a freakin’ foosball table…right after Lori caused the child to kill herself.
Any first year law student can tell you “intent” in law doesn’t have to be “I intended for her to kill herself.” For IIED intent is literally exactly what Lori Drew admitted to doing - intending to cause emotional injury to Megan Meiers. Then there’s Negligent Infliction of Emotional Distress - no intent required.
I understand that the Meiers are good, honest people and they’ve suffered so much because of this, a lawsuit won’t bring them satisfaction; but at least it would inflict SOME consequence on Lori Drew. Maybe a verdict large enough so they have to sell their house - and do the neighborhood a giant favor by leaving.
Then again, at least where they are now, others are aware of exactly what kind of monsters they are.
Lori Drew is a twisted, sick person. She knew Megan was depressed and vulnerable.
There were a million other courses of actions she could have taken if she was really “concerned” about her own daughter.
Lori is incredibly two-faced and shameless. She has NO shame. And no excuse. No excuse. No excuse. A child would know not to do what she did.
I wish there was some way to ease the Meier’s pain. A criminal statute won’t apply to this case, even if it is passed. As difficult as they are, a civil lawsuit may be the only way to go. But it won’t bring Megan back. The world lost a precious child.
November 16th, 2007 at 6:58 pm
Hey Blaine how bout some pics of the bastards?
November 16th, 2007 at 7:13 pm
Such a sad story to know that there are parents out there that teach their children how to be evil. Not only have they involved her in this crime, but have also shown how to get away w/o being punished. It’s amazing that they were so angry and quick to file report about a stuipd game table, but seem to show no grief for pushing this young girl over the edge.
November 16th, 2007 at 7:21 pm
Nothing will bring back that sweet ,young, innocent girl. The first thing we all want is revenge. Make the guilty pay. But what we are doing when we do that is judging. No one on this earth is qualified to do that, only The Lord. He will take care of that. The best we can hope for is a law to stop this in the future and pray for the Meier family to find peace and comfort in their Lord. Life is not an easy journey. We all have our own burdens and God will not give us more than we can handle. I wish them peace.
November 16th, 2007 at 8:41 pm
And any 1L would also tell you that winning a IIED or NIED claim is virtually impossible unless it’s parasidic to a more substantial claim.
November 16th, 2007 at 11:06 pm
I feel like I’ve crawled out from under a rock. Didn’t this happen a year ago? How is it that this story has just now come to the forefront? CNN just did a 1/2 hour explaining it as well as the local newcasts. Can someone explain this to me? Thank you.
November 17th, 2007 at 12:12 am
Chris,
It is called crappy journalism…journalists are about as evil as Lori Drew, a.ka. the Meghan Meier Murderer.
God forbid a journalist was credible anymore and called a spade a “spade”…
November 17th, 2007 at 12:21 am
MC - you have GOT to be kidding me. The sheriff’s department is really questioning the Meier’s motives? Jesus, what the hell is wrong with these people? Maybe if the Meier family had been properly served by the police and the legal system then the sheriff’s department wouldn’t be having to justify their inaction.
Well, they’re going to have to justify it now because in addition to that CNN piece that just aired, the AP published a story tonight that’s already showing up on newspaper sites ALL OVER THE WORLD.
Last time I looked it was up to 167 different papers…
November 17th, 2007 at 12:36 am
I believe that these sick and horrible neighbors (lori drew/curt drew) need to be taught a severe lesson. Law enforcement must find a way to teach these adults (allegedly adults) that their conduct was sick, insenstive and caused great harm.
what was an adult doing toying with a depressed 13 yr old girl. these horrible people should be shamed completely and utterly. they are bad bad bad people.
November 17th, 2007 at 12:40 am
Blaine - you are neighbors with these very evil people? how can they stand to show their digusting face on your street? do people treat them like regular people or like the evil they are? I cannot believe they would not slink away inthe middle of the night and show up in Bulgaria (oh sorry didnt mean insult Bulgarians).
sick, evil, horrible people - these Lori Drew and Curt Drew.
November 17th, 2007 at 1:46 am
This woman is an fing adult. I can not stomach her act. I can not even find a word that could describe this lowest scum of the earth. She is not a mother or a woman and do not be so kind to even say this. She is the DEVIL, evil beyound words and if she does not pay for this crime, she will when she burns in the hottest of hells when her soul goes to hell. Hell is not even hot enough for this lowest form of scum on the earth. I am so upset and my stomach hurts and my heart achs and I can not sleep. My heart goes out to the Meier family and I will do ANYTHING to help you. Post photos of them or send them to me and I will spend every waking minute of my life sending their photos to my Biker friends who will put them on a WANTED poster and lets make them pay one way or another.

November 17th, 2007 at 4:12 am
This really makes me mad….what if this taunted little girl, who was once overweight and very insecure and sensitive had gone to her school with an AK 47 and shot a lot of people???? Do you think the authorities would be reacting so indifferently? The neighbors within the vicinity would be outraged, as they should. Aren’t there enough problems and repurcussions as a result of childish pranks and having to deal with it on a daily basis at school? These parents should be held accountable and held responsible for an atrocious, long term, premeditated action that could only have dire circumstances.
November 17th, 2007 at 4:20 am
MARIANA,
You put that very well. In fact this child was very depressed and vulnerable. This adult attacked in an adult way that was excessive and no child would have known to do such a thing. Only an angry, bitter, beaten down adult would have sunk so low and dragged it out for so long just to make the more irreparable and painful. I so agree with you. If Megans retaliation had resulted in the retailiation of others instead of herself the names of those people would be all over the place and the repercussions would be enormous. I hope they get what they deserve.
November 17th, 2007 at 5:54 am
I hope the people who do business with Drew Advantage reconsider their decision. I’m sure most businesses would not want to associate with companies that are owned by people of such low character. Also, since Drew Advantage computer equipment/temp employees/employees were involved on company time with the hoax the civil suit should seek to include the Drew Advantage company assets as well.
November 17th, 2007 at 8:16 am
Chris, that is what troubles you most about this story? that it happened a year ago?
I don’t care if it happened 50 years ago, it still shouldn’t have happened and lessons can always be learned from it.
November 17th, 2007 at 9:09 am
People’s expression of anger here is NOT the same thing that the Drews did.
The Drews, ADULTS, preyed on an emotionally vulnerable CHILD. From their messages to the child, they did so with obvious intent to HURT the CHILD. They may or may not have intended for her to kill herself, but they showed a cruel disregard for her mental health. As far as I’m concerned, they are responsible for that child’s death; and if an adult provoking a mentally ill child to kill themself isn’t a crime, it should be.
People have a right to be angry over that child’s death and to want justice for her. They were adults and should have known better.
November 17th, 2007 at 10:20 am
EVIL. What they did was evil. They should be publically outed for this. How is it that they don’t even get that???
November 17th, 2007 at 10:24 am
Anyone have pictures of these pieces of garbage?
I am going to put up a site deicated to these fucks and let the world know what kind of losers they are.
November 17th, 2007 at 10:34 am
If, in fact, Megan did say things about this scumbags kid why did “mommy dearest” have to stick her nose in it and not let her brat handle it herself. She should read the new “Spears book of parenting”! This is exactly the type of person that would benefit from it. These animals deserve everything they get despite what Llyod says.
November 17th, 2007 at 12:20 pm
Girls have been mean to each other since time immemorial, but for a PARENT to get involved like this is just sick! Lori Drew is very much responsible for Megan Meier’s death just as though she had shot or stabbed here. Maybe there’s not a secular law covering this, but she certainly has broken one of the oldest law. The part of the 10 Commandments that says “Thou Shalt Not Bear False Witness Against Thy Neighbor” and if this isn’t an extreme example of this, then I don’t know what is? Also, writing untrue things like that is illegal…it’s call committing LIBEL! Why can’t the PTB in Missouri see this, and then bring those pepole to justice!
November 17th, 2007 at 12:29 pm
Chris,
The family remained silent per the instructions of their attorney. The couple has concluded that silence is not the best thing as other children might someday confron the same sick stuff.
November 17th, 2007 at 12:40 pm
Sam and Movern (posts 62, 63 and 66):
You are both right on the money.
November 17th, 2007 at 12:41 pm
Hold on, even if the police can not do anything with them, Is there no other way to make them pay legally? A lawsuit or something like that? So many silly lawsuits in this country, how come a serious matter like that can not be discussed and investigated in a court?
November 17th, 2007 at 1:10 pm
I don’t know if the person(s) identified in these posts is indeed the ‘adult’ who played this cruel game, so I for one will not attempt to contact this person. However, I’m sure the person who came up with this deadly ploy is reading this board and you know who you are. All I can say is “You deserve to be charged with child abuse resulting in death, a feloney, and spend an appropriately long time in jail. If I were on the jury, I would say at least 20 years. How dare you call Megan cruel when your scam was evil? Is this how you raise a child to be moral and mature? By stooping low enough to harrass a child with mental health issues? I am saddened to learn that at this point there are no charges against you and I will pray every day that someone has the sense to charge you with your crime - Feloney Child Abuse Resulting in Death. Your child(ren) deserve a better role model than you. Hopefully when you’re incarcerated, a sane adult can step in and undo the damage you’ve done with your malicious behavior.”
To the Meier family, my heart goes out to you. I have a daughter who had some of the same issues Megan had, and there was often “things to deal with” between her and her friends and classmates. Thankfully we never ran into an evil person like your neighbor, and my daughter has now grown up to be a productive, independent, fun and loving adult. I hope that you continue to persue this with law enforcement and if nothing else, file a civil suit for wrongful death against this woman. I hope you can find some peace knowing that you have the compassion and empathy of many people all over the country who now know your story.
November 17th, 2007 at 1:15 pm
Wait, wasn’t there something passed (or least being looked into) about cyberbullying?
And I’m sure that to combat all of the pedos on MySpace that there should be SOME kind of law that prevents any adult from not only talking to underage children, but ALSO from obtaining or using false ID, appearance, etc. to communicate with them?
This is heinous, the fact that these people are going to get away with only the guilt that they may or may not feel is rediculous.
November 17th, 2007 at 1:34 pm
The article I read (AZ Republic, credit given to Associated Press) said that this woman told police that she did this because she “wanted to gain Megan’s TRUST so that she could find out what Megan was saying about her own child.”
So you look to EARN trust by being dishonest and mean?
I’ll BET your attorney DID INDEED tell you to say nothing. Disgusting!!
If nothing else, it is internet fraud, but that is the LEAST of what it is.
This is the saddest story I’ve read in a long, long time.
November 17th, 2007 at 1:40 pm
Blaine,
Thank you for what you tried to do for Megan.
How is the rest of the neighbors reacting to the Drews?
It seems to me the media is wrong in not shining the light on these cockroaches. I think filing a police report on the Meirs is sick. The Drew’s have no shame. The only think these sick fucks will understand is a monetary judgement and losing the business. Frankly, I worry about the Drew children. They should be in foster care away from that bat shit crazy mother.
November 17th, 2007 at 2:11 pm
WOW! THIS IS UNBELIEVABLE , THE SORROW , That the meires are having to deal with, I am a parent of a child that died, and I cant believe that anyone would involve themselves in harrassing a child to the point of suicide , I am sickened and all I can say, is ” I hope these Drew scumbags get theirs,” what goes around comes around and what you reep you sow” I have never failed to see it happen , my heart goes out the the Meiers, I think they should they should go for the jugular. That is not hate but retribution!!!
November 17th, 2007 at 2:54 pm
Every effort needs to be made so that the Drew’s family members and business associates are aware of their vile actions. Shame is a powerful deterrent.
Wrecking every personal and business relationship these people have would be a good start at justice.
A good place to start would be a website called “Lori Drew Killed Megan Meier”, so that anytime the Drews were googled, people could immediately be made aware of their heinous crime against this child.
Bear in mind that now that the heat is on, the Drews will start convincing themselves that their actions were completely justifiable. You will start to see her telling the media that mentally torturing Megan was the only way she could “protect her child”.
November 17th, 2007 at 3:02 pm
One other point: Since the Drews apparently committed no crime, and they are completely innocent of any wrongdoing, then the have nothing to hide. Lori Drew’s action were perfectly acceptable behavior for a grown adult.
Therefore, the media should immediately start attaching their names to this news story. After all, they’ve done nothing wrong, they are simply a fact to be reported in the retelling of this tragedy.
Start naming names.
November 17th, 2007 at 3:17 pm
Here is Curt and Lori Drew’s property info from the St. Charles County Assessor’s office:

November 17th, 2007 at 3:29 pm
Know why kids these days take guns to school and blow away their classmates? Know why adolecent suicide rates are skyrocketing? Know why schools are forced to implement zero tolerance policies on everything?
It’s because kids are learning that it’s ok to do this kind of stuff. If Megan said things about this ‘friend’, I’ll bet it was not a one-sided deal. What was this ‘friend’ saying about Megan?
If there was some sort of issue between these to children, why did the ‘mother’ of this ‘friend’ not sit down with her daughter, Megan and Megan’s mother and discuss it and work out a solution?
Isn’t that what being a parent is about - teaching your children how to become productive, healthy, well-adjusted adults? This woman’s job was to show her daughter the correct way to deal with a situation, not become her “BFF” and join her in playing a deadly game. I’m guessing that her and her daughter’s behavior was less-than-dignified before it ever got out of hand and she was embarassed, as an adult and parent, to talk with Megan and her mother because of her own lack of social skills to deal with it appropriately. Why else hide behind internet annyninimity?
Sorry if I’m posting too much. This really steams me. I hope the murderess is reading. You are a coward and a disgrace to the honor of motherhood.
November 17th, 2007 at 4:04 pm
I think Lloyd (#25) is the perp (alledged to be one Lori Drew). Yeah, that post will stop us from having an honest, heartfelt opinion about this woman. Lloyd, I hope that is you (the woman who killed Megan). I hope you’re reading every post. And, Lloyd, if you are not the murderess, you are a moron.
And I am not hiding behind internet annynimity when I say that I think you ought to be condemned to a very unhappy fate. That is my real name up there above my posts. I’m not pretending to be anyone other than who I am; a person who hopes you now feel as totally worthless and vulnerable as you made Megan feel. I suppose I should feel a little ashamed of making these posts about you, as you obviously have some mental health issues of your own. The difference is, I’m not trying to trick you into ‘trusting’ me. Do not trust me. I am NOT your friend.
November 17th, 2007 at 4:06 pm
Hoop earrings! Can you say M.I.L.F?
November 17th, 2007 at 5:05 pm
I think Lori is a fat, disgusting hog. I hope her and her husband both rot in hell for what they did to this family. From reading the paper they apparently show no remorse. That whole Drew family are pieces of shit!
November 17th, 2007 at 5:26 pm
Has anyone written to the business or home address that has been posted as being linked to the murderers? I feel strongly for this case and would like to know what others are doing to help the victims.
November 17th, 2007 at 5:28 pm
LT at 5:54 am said
“Also, since Drew Advantage computer equipment/temp employees/employees were involved on company time with the hoax the civil suit should seek to include the Drew Advantage company assets as well.”
Excellent observation. And a very legally correct one.
November 17th, 2007 at 5:37 pm
Not that Drew Ad Vantage is going to have any assets (or customers) left now that the proverbial poop has hit the blower.
People have mentioned that she confessed to this in a police report. Does anyone have a link to that report; is it online somewhere? I’d love to have a look-see at it.
I also wish she would come on here (as herself) and try to explain herself. (Oh wait, I didn’t look for any comments from Josh Evans…! Bet he’s just SICK about all this, huh?)
November 17th, 2007 at 5:57 pm
This reminds me of the Texas cheerleader murder of some years ago when one mom murdered another so that the daughter of the victim would be too grief stricken to try out for the cheer leading squad thus giving the murderer’s daughter a leg up.
This woman (Lori Drew) is insane if she actually instigated a My Space page to check up on teenage gossip about her own daughter.
If Ms. Drew did this it was not about protecting her child.
It was about herself and her personal demons that must continue to haunt her from her own teenage years.
If Ms. Drew instigated this page then she completely abdicated any semblance of adult responsibility.
The indication that she was joined in this behavior by an employee, presumably an adult, is also frightening in the lack of any kind of common sense or good judgement.
If the stories we are hearing are accurate then these people should be treated as pariah because there is no excuse for this kind of behavior.
November 17th, 2007 at 6:28 pm
The fact that there are other individuals that can feel outrage over this incident, as I - gives me a little bit of hope for this messed-up country.
I don’t know why this story has hit me the way it has, with all of the other bad stuff out there - but this whole thing is just too much.
…let justice be done, may the heavens fall.
Oh, and ‘Lloyd’; when’s the last time ‘the law’ in this country had anything to do with ‘justice’?
November 17th, 2007 at 6:29 pm
Just read this article and the BS “sympathetic comment” from the be-atch that killed this girl. What a loser. She doesn’t feel so bad because she has heard that Megan had attempted suicide before? What the F?? She feels better knowing that she destroyed the life of a youngster who was already struggling to find her place in life?
Wish I lived closer. I’d like a face-to-face “interview” with this sorry excuse for a human being.

Two more comments and them I’m going to ***TRY*** to forget about this for a minute…(Neil, I know why it gets to me so much … there but for the Grace of God go I; my daughter’s adolecences was much like Megan’s and I fought so hard to pull her up when everyone else was trying to knock her down. Thank God I won!)
One: Kudos to the young lady who was given the password to ‘Josh’s’ account and knew who was behind it. It gives me hope to know that this young lady was wise enough to recognize the utterly devestating result of this “prank”, had the courage to tell her mother, and that the mother was strong and forthright enough to bring it to the school so that the Meiers could have the full truth. It helps to know that at her young age, she could tell right from wrong more than this Josh-woman and do the right thing, even if in doing so she was implicating herself.
Two: Since “Josh” was a hot young man, apparently the picture this be-atch used was NOT her own picture, and assumably not used with permission. It might be interesting to find out who the young man is that is in the picture and see if he has any legal recourse against the woman for using his image in this scandal. (Every public website I know that allows you to publish pictures has strict rules about using only photos you have the right to publish…)
I’m going to go hug my daughter now. She showed up at Mom’s house to do laundry and is currently napping in her old room. I’m glad she’s here right now so I can thank my lucky stars that she made it through those terrible years we now call “youth”.

Period.
They targeted Megan specifically.
They are predators, targeting a specific child.
I see little difference between what they did and what any other child predator has done.
Oh yea, except most child predators don’t leave their victim DEAD.

I have emailed The Smoking Gun http://www.thesmokinggun.com and asked them to post Lori Drew’s police report–the one in which she reports the Meiers for destroying her precious foosball table. In the report, she confesses to her involvement in the “Josh Evans” MySpace hoax, notes that it probably contributed to Megan’s suicide, because this is the MOTIVE behind the Meiers’ malicious act of vandalism. I suggest that more people email The Smoking Gun and request that the police report be posted.
The Drews are reptiles. My compliments to everyone for all of the great research done in outing these killers.
November 17th, 2007 at 7:42 pm
I can’t even form what I’m thinking into sentence. At least not sensible ones. I want to punch that sorry excuse of a human being in the face. I do not consider that lady an adult. She is a child. She acted like one, she preyed on one, therefor she is one. How juvenile are you that you torture a young girl on MYSPACE? That’s just pathetic. I’m only 20 and I know MySpace is a load of crap. I have one, but I don’t take it seriously. But a 13yr old would. And this lady knew that. And she acted like a 13yr old and a monster. I hope someone fucks with her kid. Not to the same extent, and certainly not with the same results (I wouldn’t wish for this to be repeated) but enough to show that P-O-S lady how things like that effect a young person. I’m debating whether or not I want to call that number and tell that woman how despicable i think she is. I can imagine someone already has beat me to it. But she deserves every phone call, letter, dirty look, ect. that comes her way. I only wish I lived nearby and not in IL so I could see that woman face to face, and maybe try to make it through her explanation defender her actions before I ripped her throat out. I feel slightly bad for her daughter. I know I wouldn’t want to have a lying, crazy, bitch-face shit-hole of a mom. I hope the girl knows better than to turn out like that.
November 17th, 2007 at 7:54 pm
The manager at Max n Erma’s said, “I don’t know what you’re talking about” and hung up on me.
I think it’s going to take a few calls for them to pay attention.
Max & Erma’s 636-970-1900
And I was trying to be helpful, willing to give her all the info so they’d know what was going on when they started getting calls. She was just plain rude, though! (And to think, I used to eat there! Not anymore, man!)
November 17th, 2007 at 7:59 pm
Here’s a picture of Megan Meier:
You can see why her parents loved her so much…
November 17th, 2007 at 8:03 pm
I would leave Madison’s Cafe alone - he is aware of the situation and was very nice, regretted the situation, didn’t know about this when he advertised with her, has been thinking about it all day - I think she lost him as a customer, and he probably doesn’t need to be bothered any more about it.
But go ahead and call Max n Ermas - the manager there didn’t seem to care. She needs encouragement.
November 17th, 2007 at 8:09 pm
Hm.. my comments aren’t going through for some reason. I’m trying to post that if you call the businesses, don’t call the cafe - I called, the man was upset about it, probably won’t do business with them anymore, definitely not if he sees that it’s true that the woman did this.

November 17th, 2007 at 8:52 pm
1) Isn’t there at least a ANTI-HAZING LAW that would get the three people arrested and a conviction record?
2) Have the Megan’s parents filed a civil suit?
3) At the very least, the Drews should be ostracized by every community that they live in so they have a tangible reminder of their lack of morality and basic human values.
4) It’s very important to keep this outrage at the surface so Megan’s story stays alive and builds.
November 17th, 2007 at 8:53 pm
But if this happened so long ago, is it possible the Drews have moved already?
November 17th, 2007 at 9:02 pm
Nobody killed this girl except herself. She is the one who hung herself. She was mentally unstable and it could have been ANYTHING that set her off. Someone this close to commiting suicide really doesn’t need a reason. She’d been thinking about doing it for a long while before any of this happened.
So, if these people are responsible for her death then ALL the rest of us in the world should be very careful exactly what we do and say to others. You never know who might be teetering right on the edge. You could end up being the cause of someone’s suicide. How awful.

November 17th, 2007 at 9:31 pm
Jori, go fuck yourself, child murderer!!!!
November 17th, 2007 at 9:32 pm
The snake crawls out of her hole and demands justice?
You must have skipped Bible study:
“We reap what we sow.” (Gal. 6:7- 9)
“If we sow wickedness, we will reap the same” (Job 4:8)
“If we sow iniquity, we reap sorrow” (Pr. 22:8)
If we sow to the flesh we reap the works of the flesh; and if we sow to the Spirit we reap the fruit of the Spirit (Gal. 5:16-26).
We can look at our lives to see whether we are sowing to the flesh or the Spirit. If we are reaping evil things it is because we are sowing evil things.
Bottom line Lori Drew?
You are an EVIL person and you are now experiencing a little taste of your own medicine.
Doesn’t taste real good, does it?
An adult tormenting a 13-year old while hiding behind a fraudulent identity is just pure evil.
November 17th, 2007 at 9:34 pm
If you are who you claim ‘Lori’ - if I were you, I’d be more inclined to keep my mouth shut.

Afterward, Lori Drew had the audacity to file a police report over her damaged foosball table…
Of course, she then admitted that the reason it was destroyed was that “In the months leading up to the Meier’s daughter’s suicide, she instigated and monitored a MySpace account which was created for the sole purpose of communicating with the Meier’s daughter.”
November 17th, 2007 at 9:48 pm
Well, foosball tables DO cost a fair amount of money.
November 17th, 2007 at 10:01 pm
This http://www.cbgundaker.com/search/agent/detail.jsp?publicid=CCUDREW
is Curt Drew’s contact information at his Coldwell Banker office.
Tinkerballs is just that - tinkering with balls.
“Jori” - ummmm.. “remove your personal info from this POS website or else” …. what????
Come and get me, bitch. I emailed your hubby’s office with my thoughts about you.
ccudrew@cbgundaker.com
I don’t know what to say, but I’ll try to find the words.
I’m sorry to bring your wife’s personal shortcomings to your place of work, but her silence in the light of national outrage at her behavior leaves much to the imagination.
Out of hopes that your teenage daughter (or perhaps step-daughter - I don’t know your family circumstances) can find some sense of right and wrong, and humanity out of this situation, I am asking you, as the mother of a young lady who was much like Megan as a teen, to please please have your wife step up to the plate, be an adult, and admit her wrongdoing publicly and do whatever she can come up with to make amends to the Meier family.
I would hope that you had no knowledge of your wife and daughters’ actions when they were going on. If you did, you should feel as shamed as your wife. Your daughter - well, she’s just a kid. Just like Megan was. The difference is, Megan will never have a chance to grow up, thanks to your wife. Hopefully your daughter can overcome this. She will need serious therapy, so I hope you’re getting that for her.
I think you wife owes it to the mothers of teens everywhere to come clean, admit her stupidity, and publicly plead for laws that would put her in jail for a long, long time if she (or any adult ever) does something as cruel and immature and disgusting as what your wife did to Megan.
I know your attorney has told you to stay quiet. That’s a lawyer for you. You know what 5 lawyers at the bottom of an ocean are? A good start.
You don’t have to say anything for God to know what happened. He knows. He’ll make sure that justice is done. You need to tell her to come clean in front of “God and everybody”. For your daughter’s sake, it’s the right thing to do. Don’t let he go the rest of her life thinking it’s ok that Megan is dead just as long as Lori doesn’t go to jail. That sends the wrong message.
I also think you need to reimburse Mr. Meier the $1000 fine for the lawn he tore up dropping off your toys. There is no way you can compensate that family for the damage you did to their lives, their marriage, their future: seeing their daughter grow into herself, walk down the aisle, the grandchildren they will never enjoy, the holidays together - your wife’s actions took so much away from them that can never been given back. Write off the lawn and foosball table as a “thank goodness they didn’t torch our house while we were sleeping”. I would have been tempted to do that, if it were my daughter your wife had killed with her childishness.
End the silence.
And tell your wife not to make stupid comments like she feels better about it because she’s heard Megan tried to commit suicide before, so she’s not totally at fault. I wanted to throw up when I read that.
If I lived closer, I’d be one of the ‘angry mob-type people’ you’re probably watching for over your shoulders. I’m not there, though I would love to have a “heart to heart talk” with your wife.
I’ve posted on some message boards that I think she is guilty of felony child abuse resulting in death and should do serious prison time. I continue to believe that. Your wife is a sick person and I hope you are not being supportive of her efforts to avoid consequences for her behavior.
So far I’ve not read anything that suggests you were involved. Maybe you can take the high road while she takes the low road.
Again, end the silence. Let us know what could possibly enrage a supposedly mature, adult woman to act in such a pathetic, immature and impulsive way as to torment a child to death.
Please. We’re trying to understand.
Sincerely,
The Mother of “A Megan’
So, yeah, “Jori” , if you want to talk to me about my comments about your filth and stench, ask your sweet hubby who complained about his damned foosball table and tire tracks in his precious green lawn for my email address and you and I can go head to head. He has it. I gauranty you that I can drive you to the same point you drove Megan, you pathetic plague on humanity. You don’t scare ME one bit, you freak of nature. Go ahead and try to have charges filed against me for “internet harassment”. I’d love to see YOU, of all people (and I use that term loosely when applied to you, since it implies you are a human) make that stick against me. I’d love to be the subject of a debate of what internet harassment is. I can gauranty that you will be the loser. Loser.
Loser.
Loser.
You are a sick, socially diviant person, and I hope someone calls CPS on your be-atch azz! Loser.
…Of course, Jori is not Lori. But I’m pretty sure Lori is reading.
Lori - tell your hubby to log on to his office email and find my address if you want to berate me for finding you disgusting.
Phil says you deal in porn too. Hmmmm. That’s interesting! You have a photo of a hot young man to use to post messages as “Josh Evans”. Is this a minor you use in porn movies? I think there is some serious jail time there too. I hope Phil’s info is accurate and that he does indeed post more info tomorrow like he said he would.
Sweet dreams, Drew family. I’m praying that your daughter gets taken into protective custody and gets some help to overcome your atrocious misdeeds.
Love,
Liz
PS … I sent that email to hubby using my real email address, and my name at the top of this post is my real name. I’m not hiding behind any web of deciept. Would love to go one on one. Toodles, lady of the dark.
November 17th, 2007 at 10:03 pm
If the people that did this are adults (Curt and Lori Drew are apparently their names from what I gather here), they have got to be the most f*cked up, sick mf sociopaths imaginable. I feel sorry for the daughter of this incredibly evil Lori b*tch. This Lori belongs in prison, with the key thrown away and their @$$ should be sued so bad they end up with not a penny to their name. Major sh*theads! If that happened down here in Florida, they’d have no friends, no business and no peace left and would have had to move out of town PRONTO!
November 17th, 2007 at 10:05 pm
Tinkerballs, the Drew’s KNEW about Megan’s instabilities, as she had gone on several vacations with them. Megan was friends with their daughter, lived in the same neighborhood, so they obviously knew what they were doing when they chose to mess with her. It was a shameless, despicable, unjustified choice made by a bad mother who should never be allowed to “mother” again. My prayers go out to the parents, who, understandably, are getting divorced. I’m 23 and have a 2 year old son… internet policies will be very strict when he gets older.
And Jori whore, or else WHAT? Haha
November 17th, 2007 at 10:05 pm
Here’s the background story from the Associated Press:
“Megan Meier hanged herself in her bedroom on Oct. 16, 2006, and died the next day. She was described as a “bubbly, goofy” girl who loved spending time with her friends, watching movies and fishing with her dad.
Megan had been on medication, but had been upbeat before her death, her mother said, after striking up a relationship on MySpace with Josh Evans about six weeks before her death.
Josh told her he was born in Florida and had recently moved to the nearby community of O’Fallon. He said he was homeschooled, and didn’t yet have a phone number in the area to give her.
Megan’s parents said she received a message from him on Oct. 15 of last year, essentially saying he didn’t want to be her friend anymore, that he had heard she wasn’t nice to her friends.
The next day, as Megan’s mother headed out the door to take another daughter to the orthodontist, she knew Megan was upset about Internet messages. She asked Megan to log off. Users on MySpace must be at least 14, though Megan was not when she opened her account. A MySpace spokeswoman did not return calls seeking comment.
Someone using Josh’s account was sending cruel messages. Then, Megan called her mother, saying electronic bulletins were being posted about her, saying things like, “Megan Meier is a slut. Megan Meier is fat.”
Megan’s mother, who monitored her daughter’s online communications, returned home and said she was shocked at the vulgar language her own daughter was sending. She told her daughter how upset she was about it.
Megan ran upstairs, and her father, Ron, tried to tell her everything would be fine. About 20 minutes later, she was found in her bedroom. She died the next day.
Her father said he found a message the next day from Josh, which he said law enforcement authorities have not been able to retrieve. It told the girl she was a bad person and the world would be better without her, he has said.
Another parent, who learned of the MySpace account from her own daughter who had access to the Josh profile, told Megan’s parents about the hoax in a counselor’s office about six weeks after Megan died. That’s when they learned Josh was imaginary, they said.
The woman who created the fake profile has not been charged with a crime. She allegedly told the St. Charles County Sheriff’s Department she created Josh’s profile because she wanted to gain Megan’s confidence to know what Megan was saying about her own child online.
The mother from down the street told police that she, her daughter and another person all typed and monitored the communication between the fictitious boy and Megan.
A person who answered the door at the family’s house told an Associated Press reporter on Friday afternoon that they had been advised not to comment.
Megan’s parents had been storing a foosball table for the family that created the MySpace character. Six weeks after Megan’s death, they learned the other family had created the profile and responded by destroying the foosball table, dumping it on the neighbors’ driveway and encouraging them to move away.”

and lori, consider this, what if another adult had fucked with YOUR daughter? then what
November 17th, 2007 at 10:23 pm
Megan was just like any other 13-year old kid.
She loved her dog:
And her room reflected her personality:
Why these supposed “adults” thought it was OK to pretend to be a 16-year old boy who liked her, toyed with her hopes and dreams, and then suddenly turned on her with a vicious, malicious attack is beyond comprehension…
November 17th, 2007 at 10:27 pm
Jessica -
You betcha I will!
I got a bone to pick with this bitch!
Been there, done that, with my own kid. NEVER would I have stooped so low.
I am currently composing a letter to the St. Charles County Sherriff’s Department about the possibility of felony child abuse resulting in death charges. This case certainly calls for such charges to be considered.
November 17th, 2007 at 10:35 pm
hitsusa, did you know her? It seems like you did.
November 17th, 2007 at 10:37 pm
Hitsusa - I have to ask: it seems you are someone who was very close to Megan… can you share your relationship with her?
November 17th, 2007 at 10:50 pm
Well, given the fact that the Drews purposedly caused the Meiers Severe Pain and Anguish, they should sue them for everything they own, and will own in the future.
It is obvious by now that Criminal justice failed, let Civil Justice take a shot at them.
Although some criminal charges ought to be filed.
If any of you O’Fallon Citizens are reading these comments and websites, remember the actions of the Voted officials on this matter next time elections come around.
All of you have children, and there are Plenty of other Lori Drews on the Internet.
November 17th, 2007 at 10:51 pm
I just wanted to say how sorry I am to hear about your beautiful girl!!!!
May she R.I.P
November 17th, 2007 at 10:57 pm
So far I haven’t heard many people being aware of the sexual behavior that’s involved here between the adults Drews and perhaps one of her employees.
Ms. Drew used the same same exact mode of operation as a child predator enacts in the seduction of a child.
1. Drew posed as a member of the opposite sex and spend weeks and week luring this girl into a relationship. She admitted there was some minor sexuality in some of their discussions.
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.
Then the woman emotionally raped this child. She took her supposed love and sexual stimulation and crushed the girl emotionally with them.
This girl was mentally raped a mother and her employee. This adult and her friends played this girl into an emotional high… and then pulled the plug when it would inflict the highest possible damage. It took 4 months of planning.
There are manslaughter convictions on the books that won based on looser ties to a person’s death than this.
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.
Other child predators use the same vile tactics to seduce and lure a girl into trusting them. Other child predators use the internet to roll play the relationship, a clear example of “inflict harm and mental distress”.
This is so far beyond “Harrassment”, 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 misdimeaner 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 baby. 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 police should be investigated more closely for their lack of intervention.
Perhaps the county detectives on the case need some scrutiny. Did they really investigate this crime thoroughly? Apparently not.
Why is the media protecting names here? Why wouldn’t this story be like any others ? Why is this horrific story coming to light like this a year later?
There had better be some charges…and some county employees had better lose their job or this could happen time and time again.
November 17th, 2007 at 10:58 pm
What-a-world (http://www.what-a-world.com) is staying with this story in hopes of getting laws enacted, forcing the state to prosecute these very evil people (Lori and Curt Drew - as if the whole world does not know their names) and give some degree of comfort to the Meier’s.
I am amazed that there is no way to prosecute these very evil and horrific people (Lori Drew). This is (allegedly) an adult who basically f**ked with a 13 yr old (mentally).
However, the blog community has clearly spoken. We do not condone violence against these sick people. However, we agree that their names should be known and people can then make their own mind up if they wish to do business with these terrible people. I believe she runs an ad agency and he is with coldwell banker.
And it is even more sad that this caused the Meier’s to be divorced. It makes it seem that evil wins out - that the heartless Drew’s won. Read more on this subject at http://www.what-a-world.com.
Keep the drums beating, maybe these terrible evil people (The Drew’s) will hear them and… run.

As a mother of two young girls, I find it especially heartbreaking that Megan’s mother chastised her daughter (shortly before she killed herself) for the crude words Megan was responding with to the wicked people who were playing with her on Myspace
“Megan’s mother, who monitored her daughter’s online communications, returned home and said she was shocked at the vulgar language her own daughter was sending. She told her daughter how upset she was about it.”
It just shows you that Megan’s mother was expecting Megan to be civil and mature in her responses despite the cruelty. Had she only known that how own neighbor was behind it!
I pray she doesn’t blame herself for coming down hard on Megan. She could not have know how very tragic this would all end. How very unlike Lori Drew who fed off the beast of gossip and became a beast.
Mothers be good to your daughters. Instill in them love, kindness and respect for others. I tell my girls to always think three things before you speak about someone else. 1. Is it kind? 2. Is it true 3. Is it necessary? Shame on you, Lori Drew for taunting and betraying the sisterhood.
I suppose I should pray for you, but I find that very hard to do right now.

Rolling on the floor laughing my f’ing azz off - jori has changed her post.

November 17th, 2007 at 11:29 pm
I just wanted to chime in here. I stumbled upon this story while I was reading up on the news. The story was quite upsetting to read, especially as I began to search for more details. I really felt for Megan’s situation. I have suffered with depression for a good portion of my life, currently medicated. When I was her age, I didn’t know the condition, but I definitely had it. I was going through a lot of changes myself. I didn’t have loads of friends and suffered through enough teasing and harassment to drive me to hate myself and almost seriously believe the world would be better off without me. Thankfully I could truly never commit such an act. But at that age, adolescents are very vulnerable. Young adults but without adult experience and thinking. At any rate, life now isn’t perfect yet, but it’s coming along quite nicely. And I wish that Megan had had the chance to experience more of life.
It sickens me what transpired. Grown adults emotionally and psychologically abusing a young, insecure girl. There is nothing I can take from this story that would even begin to justify their sick and negligent actions. They intended to hurt her, there is no question. And they more than succeeded.
To everyone here that is just as outraged as I am, please do be careful not to break any law or to endanger the lives of those people. While there is nothing I value more than justice, nothing is ever going to bring Megan back. I hope that the murderers by-proxy seek atonement and take responsibility for their actions. I hope that whatever apparently-missing law is added to the books.
I hope that the Meier family is able to heal from this tragedy. My thoughts are with them.
I do have to say though, that the absolutely sickest thing I read from that report was the part where Lori “didn’t feel as bad” because Megan had (apparently) attempted suicide before. First of all, the Meiers deny that is the case. Secondly, what kind of warped thing to say is THAT?
I’m also troubled about the sheriff that questioned the Meiers motives for bringing this up a year later. That just boggles the mind.
I dunno. I’m conflicted because there’s a part of me that likes vigilante justice. But there’s another part that knows society has law and order for a reason.
Just be careful to find that balance, is all.
November 17th, 2007 at 11:32 pm
“Hi, this is the real Lori Drew, and a friend emailed me this site. You people don’t know the whole story, and your assumptions are ridiculous. I demand any and all personal information about myself and my family be removed from this website immediately. I will have my lawyer looking into filing a civil suit, and an injunction to have this website shut down Monday morning. You wouldn’t want your personal information all over the internet would you? ”
…Yawn…
Lori, sweetie, don’t keep me up all night. Please just email your bullshit to me at the above addy and lets be done with righteous mom versus bite-eous mom. Loser. Loser. Loser.
Hope your kid gets taken away from you and you go to jail.
Loser.
Loser.
Loser.
Email me. I posted it above and at your hubby’s work.
Loser.
Pathetic wanna be teen can’t stand the extra pounds and wrinkles makes me wanna puke be-atch.
Loser.
Come get me, hunny.

Tinker,
We all SHOULD take care in what we say to/about people and the actions we take. It seems a strange thing that we might think otherwise.
I once had a friend who said “We should treat all people as though they are hurting, because more often than not, they are.” While most people are not on the brink of suicide, many are lonely, confused, or dealing with past hurts in some way, and surely would be better at the end of each day if those around them actually “took care.”
Enough has been said by others about the Drews. They know the motives of their heart. But I must say that condemning the action is not the judgement (Thou shalt not judge) spoken about in Scripture, in my opinion. It is merely a sign of a just society. Judgement comes when we condemn them to hell for their motives…thankfully, that is not in our hands.
Glad for the chance to speak on this…perhaps now I will not scream out loud.
November 17th, 2007 at 11:38 pm
Com’ on - Sweetie Joshie Pie. Be a man and stand up like a woman should.
Should I call you at your home # 636-272-2670 or on your sweetie hubby’s cell 314-520-8688?
I’lll do it.
Just tell me which phone you have the balls to answer.
November 17th, 2007 at 11:39 pm
Mr Drew,
I’m horrified by your familys’ actions. I’m praying for the Meier family, and for your own child, that she may somehow break free of the atmosphere which encouraged the sort of incredibly cruel behavior that caused Megan’s death. Your daughter will now bear the weight of that poor girl’s suicide for the rest of her life. Better call the pediatric psychiatrist NOW so you’re not responsible for another teenage suicide.

Lori and Curt—
You are both sad SAD SAD!!!
My god you are worse than Hitler.
November 17th, 2007 at 11:44 pm
wow…I have been on a wild internet ride ride since I watched cnn last night about Megan’s story. I haven’t felt this worked up since I wached Columbine play live. This story is too tragic, my heart goes out to the Meiers. Thanks to the snoops for all the great, easy to use public shunning information–that will come in handy–especially after I share it with every mother I know!!
loving ya-hitsusa and liz:)!
November 17th, 2007 at 11:44 pm
Come on -
Lori
Jori
Where’s the story?
I’m up. Waiting to chat.
Trying to figure where you’re at.
One fish two fish red fish blue fish.
Never thought you’d really do “ish”.
I do not like Green Eggs with Drew.
I do not like them. Up I threw.
November 17th, 2007 at 11:48 pm
Liz, I’m so proud of you. Great job in outing these monsters.
November 17th, 2007 at 11:48 pm
File your lawsuit, Lori. I’d love to read THAT document.
Name me as a party.

PPPPLLLLLLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAZZZZZZEE! I’m begging you. File!
November 17th, 2007 at 11:58 pm
Pretty please?????
I would really like to engage you in a conversation…
November 17th, 2007 at 11:59 pm
If that was the real Lori Drew… hey you dumb bitch. You’re information is already all over the internet. All you have to do is go to white pages and look up your name. All we’ve done is put it all in one convenient place. Come on you moron, how else would we get all this information if it wasn’t all over the internet? You can’t touch us you dumb piece of shit. File whatever you want, I’ll wipe my ass with it.
November 18th, 2007 at 12:00 am
Hey Liz, why don’t we 3-way call her? I’d like to talk to her too.
November 18th, 2007 at 12:12 am
Whitney - I’ve tried all the numbers I have to reach them. No answer. That’s why I resorted to emailing the hubby at work. Not sure whether or not he was a party to the whole “josh” thing, but he did sue for damage to his yard when the Meier’s “delivered” the foosball table to them. I think he personally owes the Meiers the $1,000 fine they had to pay for ‘ruining the lawn”. Isn’t that sad? The Meiers had to pay the Drews $1,000 for grass, but the Drews haven’t had a cent of restitution to the Meiers for the death of their daughter.
That sucks.
I will persue this woman until she commits herself to a life a helping kids or hangs herself in her closet, the latter of which I hope comes first.
Yeah, I’ll call you. Let’s have a conference call.
I’m pissed. The longer I sit here and think about it the more pissed off I get. Maybe I should go to bed. But no, I won’t miss the opportunity to express my disgust with this woman.
November 18th, 2007 at 12:12 am
Anyone care to start a letter writing campaign? I have two addresses that have been posted and are begging for some good ole fashioned hate-mail. Now, I am not talking about death threats…that’s just low. Just a little note about how ashamed these people should be of themselves, how they are responsible for this girl’s death, they are horrible people/parents…yadda, yadda, yadda.
This is what I propose. Everyone post this story into an email with the Drew’s address and phone number and their business address and phone number. Encourage people to drop them a little note and forward the message on to as many people as they can. If the law won’t do something then some mass harassment should be their lot. I hope they move out of that neighborhood and we find them in their new house and harass them their. They should be reminded EVERY SINGLE DAY OF THEIR LIVES of what they did to that poor little girl. I don’t know how they live with themselves.
November 18th, 2007 at 12:16 am
No way that was Lori Drew in the prior comment. But if i was - wow so lame. and soooo insensitive.
where is the remorse?
can’t wait to hear her side of the story. and oh yes- 1st amendment rights apply here. You chose to speak through Joshua Evans, and we speak here.
repent sick lady and prepare for your lawsuit and hopeful prosecution.
November 18th, 2007 at 12:19 am
The meier’s actually paid $1,000? that is horrible where was this reported. show where this was the fact. I think we can set up a prosecution fund for the Meier’s.
No way I would have paid them, they would have had to drag me to jail. imagine how that would look
more on this and another story i read said that one of the bitches employee’s was in on this. who was the employee what is his or her name?
November 18th, 2007 at 12:19 am
I think the worst part is that a fully grown woman went SO far to prank a 13 year old girl, over what? A rumor? Pathetic. You’d think her conscience would be overwhelming with guilt. I guess she doesn’t have a conscience.
November 18th, 2007 at 12:26 am
Called both the home number and Curt’s cell number. Got no answer on either, though I did leave a rather pointed message on the cell.
My guess is that they will not be answering phones tomorrow, and on Monday they will have their numbers disconnected. Best way to contact them is through his email addy at Coldwell Banker listed above.
Well, at least they are doing what their LAWYER told them to do.
Sad to say that I don’t think that either Jori or Lori above was the real thing. Probably a cousin or something.
And how about all that mumbo-jumbo-registar-website-howdoyoulikeit= BS that was posted. What the heck was that?
Now we have a loser posting to pretend they are Lori Drew who posted to pretend she was Josh Evans.
The plot thickens.
Maybe this website could look into who is making posts claiming to be the Drews?

This comment is so right on it bears repeating. Seriously, right on DanCnKC!!!

Also, in addition to my last post, what DanCnKC has so
shrewdly pointed out is that this woman did prey on this little girl and this should fall under a child predator law. just for good measure let’s add the prosecuting attorney’s address and number AND the mayor’s to this letter writing campaign. These people should be brought to some sort of justice!!!
