Melinda Coleman Death –Dead-Obituaries : Mother of rape survivor Daisy Coleman, has died by suicide.

Melinda Coleman, the mother of rape survivor Daisy Coleman, has died by suicide four months after her daughter’s death.

The mother of Daisy Coleman — who was one of the teenage girls featured in “Audrie & Daisy,” the Netflix documentary about her rape as a teenager — has taken her own life just months after Daisy’s suicide., according to a statement posted online on December 7. 2020.

Matthew Barnett may have gotten away with brutally raping a 14 year old girl, but he’s going to be haunted by Daisy and her family for the rest of his life. Good. #AudrieandDaisy ❤️#DaisyColeman ❤️#MelindaColeman ❤️ https://t.co/eKX8aOAw98

Tributes.

The following are some tributes posted on social media to honor the life and the legacy of the deceased.

One of my 1st stories as a national correspondent in 2012 was on the fallout for Daisy Coleman after accusing high school classmates of sexual assault. Sadly Daisy never recovered & killed herself in August. Now her mother took her life. Just devastating https://t.co/GsVltglPW5

Daisy Coleman’s mom taking her life has me in shambles. Her daughter was raped. Her house set on fire. Justice system completely failing her & her daughter. Lost her son & husband. the result? She took her life at 58 years old 4 months after her 21 yr old daughter did the same.
