Rehtaeh Parsons, RIP

Rehtaeh Parsons was raped by several scumbags, at 15, photos were circulated, she ended her life at 17. her father wrote this..


Rehtaeh Parsons was my daughter
By Glen Canning on April 10, 2013

Me and Rehtaeh
My daughter was three years old when we went to watch Babe: Pig in the City. There’s a part in the movie when Babe knocks over a goldfish bowl and the fish falls onto the floor and starts flopping around. When this happened Rae suddenly stood up on her chair in the movie theatre and started screaming for someone to help the fish. She cried for it as I tried to reassure her Babe would help (thank God he did) and that the fish would be alright.
That was the nature of my daughter Rehtaeh. She was like that her whole life. I couldn’t go for a walk in Halifax with her without her asking me for change to give to someone in need. She was always looking out for people or animals that needed help. She called Animal Control Services on our neighbors because they left their dog outside too long. Her room and her life was always full of little creatures.

Sometimes her heart was too big, sometimes it scared me.

They say parents need to teach their children. Instead, it was Rehtaeh who was my teacher. My precious gift. She was the absolute best part of my life.


Rehtaeh and one of her many, many pets
There’s a wooden box in my house that holds all the memories I have of my beautiful little girl. The outfit she wore home from the hospital, a hand print in clay, art, school cards and drawings, mementoes of her life. Even a newspaper dated December 9th, 1995, the day she came into this world.
I tried to keep it all for her, to have someday when she grew up and had her own family. That day will never come.

Rehtaeh died April 7th at 11:15 PM. She was 17 years old.

She died struggling to live, much as she spent the last 18 months. She hung on right to the very end, when the nurses were telling us if she couldn’t be declared brain dead soon they couldn’t use her as an organ donor. We couldn’t wait any longer. She couldn’t live any longer. And right at the last moment there was a change in her blood pressure as the last part of her brain gave away. She knew she had to leave. It was time to let go and find peace.

It was so like her to hang on right up until the very last second. To give us all a chance to hold her hand, wipe her tears away, and kiss her beautiful face for the last time.

I tried my best to save my daughter’s life. I believe that in my heart.

I asked her repeatedly what I could do, was I doing enough, what did she want from me? She said she just wanted me to be her dad. To make her laugh. To do everything possible to keep a part of her life normal. She said it helped more than I could ever know.

I prayed for the best while I prepared her for the worst. We went to counseling together. Sometimes I was the drive, sometimes the father, sometimes the counselor.

The worst nightmare of my life has just begun. I loved my beautiful baby with all my heart. She meant everything to me. I felt her heart beating in my soul from the moment she was born until the moment she died. We were a team. We were best pals. We often sat on my couch and laughed until we could hardly speak. When we weren’t together she would call me or text me every single day, just to say hi, to say she loved me. The life I had with my daughter was a rare thing. It was wonderful, it consumed me. I was defined by it. It made my life rich and beautiful.

She was amazing.

Yesterday I looked at another wooden box. It will hold her ashes. I hate it.

I had to write something about this. I don’t want her life to defined by a Google search about suicide or death or rape. I want it to be about the giving heart she had. Her smile. Her love of life and the beautiful way in which she lived it.

I found out this afternoon my daughter saved the life of a young woman with her heart. How fitting.

She also gave someone a new liver, a kidney, a new breath, and a new chance to love. She saved the lives of four people with her final gift of life. She was that wonderful.

Someone out there is going to look at the world with my daughter’s eyes. The most beautiful eyes I have ever seen.

To the Justice Minister of Nova Scotia

Rehtaeh Parsons thought the worst outcome for her case would be no charges against the men who raped her but we all know better. The worst thing that could happen would be charges. That they would be found guilty, and that Rehtaeh would sit on a court bench and listen in utter disbelief as they were given parole, or a suspended sentence, or community service. All for completely destroying her life while they laughed.

Why is it they didn’t just think they would get away with it; they knew they would get away with it. They took photos of it. They posted it on their Facebook walls. They emailed it to God knows who. They shared it with the world as if it was a funny animation.

How is it possible for someone to leave a digital trail like that yet the RCMP don’t have evidence of a crime? What were they looking for if photos and bragging weren’t enough?

Why was this treated like a minor incident of bullying rather than a rape? Isn’t the production and distribution of child porn a crime in this country? Numerous people were emailed that photo. The police have that information (or at least they told us they did). When someone claims they were raped is it normal to wait months before talking to the accused?

You have the opportunity here to do something good and lets face it; the court system in Nova Scotia was just going to rape her all over again with indifference to her suffering and the damage this did to her.

My daughter wasn’t bullied to death, she was disappointed to death. Disappointed in people she thought she could trust, her school, and the police.

She was my daughter, but she was your daughter too.

For the love of God do something.

***I’ve been contacted from media outlets from all over the world and as a past member of the media I understand why you all want to speak with me. You have all been very courteous, professional, and respectful. Please know, however, this is the only statement I am able to make. I’m to devastated.***

I feel like I’m dead inside.

Re: Rehtaeh Parsons, RIP

The premier of NS was on the news pleading for people to not take the law into their own hands. It will be a small miracle if nothing happens to the kids that did this to her, the public outrage is enormous.

Re: Rehtaeh Parsons, RIP

That was fucking hard to read. The father should just get some of his mates to go and kill the fuckers. Oh and I hope all the police and cps ( whatever it is over there ) involved get cancer. The only thing the state does well is murder and theft

Re: Rehtaeh Parsons, RIP

Group claiming to be Anonymous threatens to unmask boys accused of raping Canadian girl who died after suicide attempt


Devastated by years of bullying and ostracism, Rehtaeh Parsons tried hanging herself last Thursday, days after a stint in the hospital. She initially survived, but was taken off life support on Sunday.


The hacktivist group Anonymous is threatening to unmask the crew of boys who drove a Canadian teen to hang herself after they allegedly raped her and put a photo of the assault on the web, making her a target for ruthless bullying.

Rehtaeh Parsons, 17, was taken off life support and died on Sunday, three days after her mother discovered her hanged in the bathroom of their Halifax home.

According to her mother, the teen got drunk at a party in 2011 and was gang raped by four boys, who snapped a picture of the scene and put it online.

For the next two years, her mom said, Parsons was mercilessly bullied by classmates, even after her family moved towns to get away from the abuse.

The Royal Canadian Mounted Police investigated the rape claim, but later said there was not enough evidence to charge the boys, said Leah Parsons, Rehtaeh's mother.

On Wednesday, a group claiming to be the hacker activist group Anonymous released a statement saying they had identified two of the alleged rapists and were working to confirm the identifies of the other two, Canada's National Post reported.

The group demanded that Novia Scotia police reopen the rape investigation or else they'd make the boys' identifies public.

"Our demands are simple: We want the [Nova Scotia Royal Canadian Mounted Police] to take immediate legal action against the individuals in question. We encourage you to act fast. If we were able to locate these boys within 2 hours, it will not be long before someone else finds them," the statement said.

"We do not approve of vigilante justice as the media claims. That would mean we approve of violent actions against these rapists at the hands of an unruly mob. What we want is justice. And That's your job. So do it."

"The names of the rapists will be kept until it is apparent you have no intention of providing justice to Retaeh's family," the statement said.

Police and officials in Nova Scotia said the group's message prompted worry about reprisals against the boys, who are still minors.

"Leah [Parsons] said she didn't want harm to come to the other young people, that her daughter would not have wanted that," Nova Scotia Attorney General and Minister of Justice Ross Landry told the National Post.

"We don't want another child taking their life because some vigilante group thinks it's OK," he said.
