16 Nov Cyber-Bullying Is A Crime And It’s A Crime That Can Set Off More Crimes
With the rise of social media comes the rise of cyber-bullying, unfortunately. Defined, cyberbullying is using electronic communications like email, text, social media, etc. to harass, intimidate or annoy another person. In California, individuals who are caught cyber-bullying are breaking the law. It’s a misdemeanor crime with up to a year in jail and/or up to $1,000 in fines. California schools have policies to prevent cyberbullying, so any student in trouble for this could face consequences like suspension or expulsion, for example.
Cyber-bullying can carry additional, very serious consequences. It can be very tormenting to a victim who might one day go so far as to either harm themselves or harm others, who could be the aggressor(s) and/or innocent people. Cyber-bullying can set off a series of unfortunate events. No one wants that.
