Really?
What about the daughter of the woman who did this? would you have her go into the same depression state that 'your daughter' (the one who killed herself) was in? What if the woman heard your plans to kill her and killed you instead. You did threaten her life, should she get off in three years?
One of my biggest issues with Law is thoughts like those stated above. The law is meant to be black and white, you commit a crime, you do the time. If you did not commit a crime you do not do the time. If this woman has not committed a crime (and it appears that she hasn't) then she should not be punished - Even if you personally don't like what she did. There should be no space in a court room for personal feelings or emotional movements.
If you (and the rest of the state/country) feel that what was done should be illegal then write to your law maker and make it so. I personally would be more inclined to vote in a law that makes you (as the parent who did not protect the daughter from herself) responsible than someone on the other end of the internet responsible. The internet is a powerful tool, it should not be infringed by the government as doing so infringes on freedom of speech/press. If the daughter wasn't psychologically stable then she should not have been on the internet (or possibly outside of a hospital, hind sight 20/20 and all of that)
What happened was cruel and tragic but not illegal. What you propose is not only cruel and tragic, it is also illegal. I would be more than happy to dish out a death sentence given a seat on the jury.
