Facebook lynch mob
Police interest has Facebook group changing tune:
A Facebook group was started in Toronto when a woman by the name of Tabitha Etches, accused of abandoning her baby and leaving it to die, was granted bail. The moderator of the group claims that the group was started to speak out on behalf of the baby. However with the internet being what it is it didn’t take long for things to get out of hand.
One of the Facebook group’s 200 members advocated running Etches out of the community for the alleged crime while another urged members to show up at her next court date with signs and friends to “show (their) hate for her.”
Other messages posted on the website described Etches as “sick” and “twisted” and expressed hope she would “rot in hell” or be beaten while in prison.
That, of course, attracted the attention of local police.
The moderator now claims that she has deleted the more obscene and violent comments.
