Today was not a very good day for me on Reddit. While browsing my favorite subs, I came across an old post about this girl named Aubreigh Wyatt. I didn’t remember any news about her but I really had no memory of the name ‘Aubreigh Wyatt’.
So when I saw this post that said – “Why is everyone talking about Aubreigh Wyatt?”, I instantly decided to Google and my day has been horrible from that moment.
How many of you read news about Aubreigh Wyatt? And how many of you remember?
It also gave me a fresh reminder of how law and society very often forget lives and deaths just like that.
Hi, I am Timothy. This is my first article on eurosaip.org so forgive me if I sound very sad or pessimistic. I usually tend to write on entertainment topics but this one needs to be shared.
Who is Aubreigh Wyatt?
Actually, I should have written “Who was Aubreigh Wyatt”, but I don’t feel like that…
Let me tell you about this Aubreigh Wyatt case in brief.
Aubreigh Wyatt was a teenager from Mississippi who died in 2013. She killed herself.
Why? Because she was bullied.
As per various people who wrote about her on Reddit, she was bullied for years and she even complained about it. But no one ever helped her. No one took her seriously.
And so she just couldn’t handle it and decided to end her life. Just like that, a sweet girl who hadn’t even seen the world yet died.
Aubreigh Wyatt. Just 13. Suicide. How can you stay normal after hearing a piece of news like this? I can’t. I am sad and I am disappointed.
And it’s not like Aubreigh Wyatt’s news didn’t get enough attention. Apparently, the Internet spread this like wildfire. People were asking ‘Why the hell did no one do anything?’.And then no one did anything after her death either.
There’s no justice. Nothing happened.
And do you know how she died?
How did Aubreigh Wyatt commit suicide?
Aubreigh Wyatt killed herself by hanging herself on her curtain rod.
Yes.
A 13-year-old hung on a curtain rod! Imagine where she got this idea from.
Social media often doesn’t shy away from talking about anything and everything, including how people commit suicide. This curtain rod hanging thing is also discussed so much on forums.
That’s where she must have gotten the idea.
Imagine that.
What happened ahead in the Aubreigh Wyatt story?
After the incident, her mother started using social media to seek justice for Aubreigh.
She launched a campaign in full force. She called out the bullies as well as the system.
And then parents of the allegedly accused bullies also hit back with their charges. They filed a lawsuit. They accused Heather was trying to use the Aubreigh Wyatt story and make money from it through attention.
Social Media spread the Aubreigh Wyatt story like fire!
For that short period, everyone on social media started asking, “How did she do it?” “What went down?” And the story spread. Got big and bigger.
From Aubreigh Wyatt’s suicide note to some “Aubreigh Wyatt doll video,” people shared everything.
Yeah, I forgot to tell you about this part.
The Story Of Alleged Doll Video
Apparently, there were videos circulated in which girls who bullied Aubreigh drew on a doll and posed with it in a disturbing manner, which they later shared on Snapchat.
Some said that it was an old video and had nothing to do with suicide. Others denied this.
And after all that, the news changed. Trends changed. Internet forgot Aubreigh Wyatt.

Social media has this thing.
Everyone on social media is an expert
No right, no wrong. Nothing is fair or unfair. Everyone gets accused of something. Hundreds of different POVs cloud the incident and the same happened in the Aubreigh Wyatt.

Doxxing. Threats. Justice bandwagon.
Just like any other trending topic, Aubreigh Wyatt’s death story also became a topic to get attention. Everyone wrote something only to forget it next month when the trend changed.
Now, I don’t know about you, but this mess makes me think about a lot of things.
First off, justice doesn’t always come in the form of a viral hashtag. Just because a story blows up on social media doesn’t mean the law will fix everything.
It’s easy to shout “justice” when you are not the one facing the reality of what happens later. When everything fades away.
The truth? Real justice in this situation is messy, and it doesn’t fit in a tweet or a viral video.
So, what’s the Aubreigh Wyatt case really telling us? About law? About society?
Honestly, it’s a mess.
Justice isn’t decided by a social media algorithm. By a hashtag. By trends. Nothing changed. Some people talked about bullies, and others talked about Aubreigh Wyatt’s mom. Everyone was accused of one thing or another.
That meant nothing.
Eventually, they all forgot.
I know, it makes less sense after all I said. But still, if you want to, you can share a post on social media to keep the issue alive. I mean, what else can we do?

Justice is pending, Aubreigh! Justice is pending
Bye for now.
See you with another post. Hopefully a happier one.
