Publisher's Summary

On September 5, 2015, in a public park in LaVergne, Tennessee, 14-year-old Sherokee Harriman drove a kitchen knife into her stomach as other teens watched in horror. Despite attempts to save her, the girl died, and the coroner ruled it a "suicide". But was it? Or was it a crime perpetuated by other teens who had bullied her? 

Sherokee's short life and tragic death created a national media and social media frenzy, much of it centered on sensationalism rather than the truth. Meanwhile in LaVergne, the community sought answers to questions about who, if anyone, should be held criminally responsible for "bullying". 

Award-winning author and criminologist Judith A. Yates peels back the layers of sensational news coverage surrounding a girl's death, and in context with national interest in the phenomenon of Internet bullying tries to answer the question of whether Sherokee Harriman was Bullied to Death.
