my best friend Melondy had been missing for almost a week when i got the call. her body had been found about five hours from her home in Tampa Florida. the next day i was on a flight to New York, for thats where Melondy had been born and lived for half her life. The funereal was the next day, and i swear if it hadnt been so cold we all could of gone swimming in my tears. before her body was cremated her mum and dad came up to me and handed me a letter. they explained how it was from Melondy and in a note i was the first one to read it. here is a exact copy of the letter so please go to the link and read it. may this be a lesson learned to everyone NOT to go on myspace. i decided that today i will share her story. please dont judge her for what she did. please go to the link to read her letter.

i relize (srry for bad spelling) that myspace didnt rape and kill her, but what im trying to say is that myspace was a good idea when it came out but its turned into a slaying network. so many people are killed going on there. and yes my friend did make the decision to keep talking to chet, BUT when he did start to make her uncomfortable she told him not to talk to her any more and things got worse. so anyways the whole point of this was that melondy wanted me to let the world here her story and i dont care if u like her story or not its true. the whole point of her wating me to do this is because she doesnt want anyone to make her mistake. so i think its just better to not go on myspace at all.

Well, along with going on myspace comes responcibility. It's always good idea to talk to only people you know, not post personal data on a public forum and dont use your real name . People who know who you are already know that info. Kids should be monitored on the computer and profiles set to private that way only the people you know can view your info. I can't open your link from my current location so I dont know what it is. Myspace is not to blame, the individuals are. the parents , all parents NEED to be aware of who their kids are talking to online, if that was the case, perhaps the outcome would have been different. My condolences.

It had nothing to do with myspace. It had to do with your friend not being smart online. No one is to blame but her, and possibly her parents for not keeping an eye on her online activities. I'm not trying to be cruel, but it's the truth.

well if this is true its all her fault, AND her parents for that matter. Its common sense to stop talking to a 48 year old stranger when your only 15. And on top of that he was talking to her sexually. HELLOOOO how stupid do you have to be to keep on talking to him? Anyways ya its a sad story but damn some people are just asking for it.

Is this for real!............. Myspace is not bad it's just like chat rooms..... I had a kinda of the same thing happen to me I was talking to a girl 19 and she turned out to be a 50 year old man. Now I only talk to people I know or who a family member or friend knows. You just got to be carefull.
