\u00a0Why do some people have the need to attack others that are grieving for absolutely no reason? \u00a0Have they lost their humanity or are they just a product of a very sad reality of their own? \u00a0Just like in the most recent tragedy of the loss of Robin Williams. \u00a0It has been reported all over the news that &#8220;others&#8221; attacked his daughter so viciously on social media that she took down all of her sights. \u00a0How could people be this cruel? \u00a0And the next question I have is why would good logical people ever begin to believe the lies and filth these people try to float? \u00a0Why would they even want to read any of the things these people write about? \u00a0And my last question on that subject is if any of the &#8220;others&#8221; really were knowledgable and were ever coming from truth then why are they always anonymous? \u00a0Why do they always use fake names, and fake accounts?<\/p>\n<p>I have had people tell me that the &#8220;others&#8221; on the Internet have said stuff about Steve and I &#8211; they said we took out a life insurance policy on Morgan so we don&#8217;t want people to know she killed herself. \u00a0We never had a life insurance policy taken out on Morgan, or any of our children &#8211; why would we? \u00a0Our children are supposed to outlive us as parents. \u00a0If the mere thought of someone thinking this wasn&#8217;t so sick it would almost be laughable, but it&#8217;s not, it&#8217;s disgusting. \u00a0What kind of people think that way? \u00a0I wish the others would get a clue &#8211; Morgan never committed suicide &#8211; Morgan was murdered and there is still a murderer out there. There is ample proof that she was murder in a horrific way and If you knew your daughter had been murdered, if you had seen and heard the evidence that proves she was murdered would you just sit back and let her murder be swept under the rug? \u00a0Would you just allow false allegations to be tossed around without trying to bring the truth to light? I don&#8217;t think so. \u00a0Yes, it&#8217;s painful, but it is a reality and something we have to do, and there is no getting around that fact.<\/p>\n<p>The loss of his sister has been extremely hard on Ryan. \u00a0He was so filled with anger for the first 2 years he couldn&#8217;t talk about it, but now he wants justice and has faith that Steve and I will be able to keep pushing forward until Morgan&#8217;s case gets opened, and those responsible for her murder are arrested. \u00a0He always gives me a little nudge over the phone at least once a week, &#8220;keep going Mom, what are you waiting for, hurry up.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Morgan wrote this to her brother Ryan:<\/span><\/p>\n<address style=\"color: #000000;\">January 06, 2009<\/address>\n<address style=\"color: #000000;\">To the best brother a girl could ask for, when people tell me that the world is a cruel and horrible place all I can do is smile. I smile because I know them to be wrong. I know that the world is a beautiful place worth fighting for. I know this because of you. When I think of you I feel my heart, not the one that beats, rather the one that feels. Seventeen years here on earth, I have seen bad people and good people, but you Ryan, I know to be the best. For reasons I can &#8216;t quite explain, I see you more clearly than other people. I see your struggles and your triumphs, but mostly I see your heart. I am truly blessed to have a person like you in my life, a person who makes hope look so tangible, so real. ~Morgan<\/address>\n<p>Please click on this link to read Ryan&#8217;s interview. \u00a0Thank
