Bullied to Death- Asher Brown

On Tuesday, March 1, 2011, Asher Brown would have celebrated his 14th birthday, but the day will be a solemn one for Ashers parents. Four students bullied Asher, a student at Hamilton Middle School outside of Houston, Texas. Ashers parents say they filed numerous complaints, but school officials did nothing. On the day before Ashers suicide in September 2010, students reported that a bully tripped Asher down a flight of stairs. The following day Asher shot himself at home.
