HALIFAX – The RCMP say they have made two arrests in the case of Rehtaeh Parsons, the 17-year-old Halifax girl who was taken off life-support following a suicide attempt in April.
Her family says she was bullied for months after a digital photo of her allegedly being sexually assaulted was passed around her school.
Police say they arrested two males at their homes in Halifax today at around 8 a.m.
Investigators say they are in custody and being questioned.
