Suicide after a vicious bullying/harassment campaign on reddit. I think some of the criticisms of her rescue are valid, but should not have risen to the level of harassment and bullying that the snark community engaged in

Was it really just reddit? I seem to remeber that other sanctuaries bad mouthed them viciously as well because it is such a war for donations to keep their operations going, so they fight each other? Maybe that was also part of it. Either way, atrocious and a great loss.

My understanding is that there were people she knew personally involved, like other rescues as you said, and they spread the harassment through reddit/TikTok. But, we all know how insane reddit can be when there's a "cause". It got intense quickly

Oh no, it's even worse than I expected :(
