"They just kept at it, after they jumped her. They would keep sending her videos. Then they would get screenshots of the videos because the videos kept getting taken down and then they would write nasty comments on it.”

Furthermore, Adriana's father also spoke about how the police should have been called immediately by the school, as the teenager was smashed with a 20-ounce bottle, and she immediately blacked out after the incident.
