Snorting pills at 15 yrs old. We keep saying R.I.P but I hope every high school student learned from this mistake. We all know 98% of people learn the hard way though. Damn I have a son who's 15. That's painful!!!

We are flooded with fentynol with the borders wide open HELLOOOO

Why manslaughter...drug sales yes, but nobody forced people to take drugs.

The Drugs come from Mexico with the Cartel.

Don't blame schools. Where were her parents? She made the choice to buy perks. Now thats the consequences.

[tayler]

So is it safe to say we lost the war on drugs?

Is this mom serious? Justice for her daughter, ??? Lady. Your daughter took money and BOUGHT the pills. Theres no justice here. And i dont think the seller should go to jail for life. Definitely jail time for selling but he didnt force the girl who died to buy it. SHE WANTED TO BUY IT stop blaming and accept your parenthood life.

It's really difficult being a teenager these days. Times are most definitely very different.

Your a teen, if you take drugs you know the end....

These kids are playing Russian roulette with pills nowadays since dealers higher up are mixing Fentanyl in their batches. As he said, ONE PILL CAN KILL! RIP beautiful little girl. Hope the other girls learn from her mistake.

[galarius]

Don’t just blame the dealers, blame the users

[GODISPOWER]

When your parents are not involved in your life. Things like this happens.

[selajig]

I hope my kids aren't this stupid. All we can do as parents is our best.

[lilmonsta]

Kids don’t smoke weed anymore, or eat edibles….. Wtf homegirls snorted wtf.

[jikal]

Doesn't even look like an American school

[drewcarson]

Snorting drugs at 15. That's so bad.

[littlebadest]

the mom is crying that she lost her daughter to a drug overdose but I'm sure that there were signs that her daughter was on drugs same for the other girls. it's sad but those girls are not victims they chose to do drugs they're to blame as well. if they wouldn't have bought the drugs from those boys they would have bought them from someone else. why would they crush a pill and snort it up their nose obviously they must have done this plenty of times before. parents talk to your kids and pay attention to the signs they are giving out to you. It's a cry for help even though you can't hear it dont act like you dont see it. be persistent and don't back down. a lot of parents noticed their kids are going through something but they'd rather say nothing and hope that it will pass and it doesn't. dont be one of those parents.

My son gets harassed for skateboarding after school, but meanwhile kids are doing drugs in the bathroom. Priorities right? I talk to my kids every day about peer pressure and possibly encountering drugs being around. Talk to your kids even if you think they would never touch drugs.
