Gabrielle Molina - bullied to death in Queens Village, New York City

Gabrielle Molina, age 12, died on May 22, 2013, at her home in Queens Village, Queens, New York City. 

Gabrielle Molina
She had hung herself.

Gabrielle was called Gabby by her friends. 

Gabrielle left a note stating that she was suffering from harsh taunts and cyber-bullying on the Internet from her classmates at Jean Nuzzi Intermediate School 109 in Queens Village.

Family members stated that Gabrielle was depressed over the taunts.

She is described as very quiet, very friendly. She just wanted to dance, sing and have fun. 

Friends describe the Molina family as a wonderful family, who are greatly suffering from the death of their loved one.

It has been reported that Gabrielle had other issues such as self-cutting.  She had gotten into a fist fight with another girl that was videotaped and posted on YouTube.  She was taunted because she lost the fight. 

Classmates reported that she wanted to change to another school because she felt uncomfortable. She felt that people wanted to jump her.

Whatever issues Gabby was dealing with, the taunts and harassment of school mates
Angels of God, pray for Gabby
didn't help. 

Jean Nuzzi Intermediate School 109 was given only a “C” for its safety environment in the city’s 2012 progress reports. Seventy percent of students at this school said they didn’t feel safe there.

What kind of school is this where 70 percent of the kids don't feel safe?  And what is the City and School Board doing about it? 

Parents in New York City - where are your brats and what are they doing to each other?  Do you care? 

Gabrielle is survived by many loving friends and relatives including her parents, George and Glenda Molina; sister, Georgia; and brother, Geonel.

Pray that Gabrielle is in heaven. Pray that she is at peace and is with God. Amen.
