This is so sad. But I have to play devils advocate a little here. Bullies get a bad rap and people typically don't make an effort to understand where they're coming from.
I'm not justifying what bullying, but I just finished a psych course where the last lecture was on this kind of stuff. There was one case where a kid bullied another until the other kid took his own life. It was in the 80's I believe. This kid had an abusive father and was venting on this other kid.
The problem isn't the bullying per se, its inept parenting.
