Alicia Ann Lynch, a 22-year-old from Michigan, tweeted and instagrammed a photo of herself at work dressed as a Boston Marathon bombing victim for Halloween.
Twitter users were enraged at the costume, and thousands tweeted at Lynch to express their disgust. It didn’t take users long to discover that Lynch had once posted a photo of her driver’s license and used the information to attack her.
The Internet rage spun out of control as Twitter users took out their anger at Lynch by contacting her family. They also circulated nude pictures and videos of her found on Tumblr.
Lynch deleted all of her social media accounts, then later reopened her Twitter to attempt to be forgiven for her costume.
