Teen sues over Facebook bullying
Wants $3 million from former classmates
An American teen is suing four of her former classmates, their parents and Facebook over alleged bullying on the social networking site.
Denise Finkel of Oceanside, NY, claims Michael Dauber, Jeffrey Schwartz, Leah Herz and Melinda Danowitz created a password protected Facebook group which was used to ridicule her. Among other things, the accused supposedly asserted Finkel had engaged in bestiality and contracted AIDS.
