The tragic story of B.C. teen suicide victim Amanda
Todd has taken another bizarre twist as the internet hacking and
activist group Anonymous has named a man the group says was the girl's
primary tormentor.
Todd, 15, of Port Coquitlam, died last Wednesday, a month after
posting a haunting video on YouTube that cited the sexualized attack
that set her down a path of anxiety, depression and drug and alcohol
abuse.During her nine-minute video, the teen explains in hand-written notes that she was in Grade 7 when she was lured by an unidentified male to expose her breasts via webcam.
She says that a year later she received a message from a man on Facebook threatening that if she didn't give him a show, he would send the webcam picture to her friends and family. She says police later told her the man followed through with his threat.
Anonymous published the name and address of a Vancouver-area man that the group claims was bullying and preying on Todd via the internet.
The activist group, which often uses a caricature Guy Fawkes mask as its logo, claims the 32-year-old man has also made postings to child pornography sites.
