i say Charged with, not found guilty of, the jury will decide if and who was responsible. i doubt the girl friend would be found guilty unless she really tried to have him kill himself. further i doubt more then just a few in the chat room would be charged, and only the worst of them found guilty if anyone. having not been there i don't know the circumstances.

Actually, if you remember the rape case that
The Accused starring Jodie Foster was based on, people were arrested and convicted for egging on the rapists. And being that suicide is, I believe, legally a crime (at least here in the US) that such an idea as holding people responsible for egging on a suicide might not be totally without precedent. I dunno.
