Rebecca Ann Sedwick

Rebecca Ann Sedwick (October 19, 2000 – September 9, 2013) was a 12-year-old American student at Crystal Lake Middle School in Lakeland, Florida who died by suicide when she jumped off a concrete silo tower, just 1 month and 10 days before her thirteenth birthday.

Investigation into her death led to a conclusion of in-person and cyberbullying contributing to the decision to take her own life.

Sedwick's family later filed a lawsuit in relation to her death.
