11-year-old girl committed suicide in school bathroom, her mother says bullying caused tragic death and shares daughter's ominous audio

An 11-year-old girl committed suicide because she was being bullied at school in New Jersey, according to the child's mother.

On February 6, Felicia LoAlbo-Melendez attempted suicide in a bathroom at the F.W. Holbein Middle School in Mount Holly, New Jersey. She was rushed to a local hospital, then transferred to the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia, where she was pronounced dead two days later.

The Philadelphia Medical Examiner's Office confirmed that her death was from complications related to her suicide attempt by hanging.

"An investigation into the student's death by the Burlington County Prosecutor's Office, which included a review of the school's surveillance cameras, determined that she was alone in the restroom when this tragic action occurred. The investigation further determined that no foul play was involved. The name of the student is being withheld by the Prosecutor's Office," the Philadelphia Medical Examiner’s Office told NJ.com.

Compounding issues beyond comprehension, Felicia's father and Elaina's husband died two weeks before the little girl's death. New Jersey Transit Police Detective Alexis Melendez died of cancer in January.

The girl's mother, Elaina LoAlbo, claimed that her daughter was bullied for years by classmates at her school, and her death was preventable.

"They called her a furry. She was not a furry," LoAlbo told WCAU. "They called her gay. They called her straight. They called her bi. They called her all kinds of things."

"My daughter was being tortured within the walls of that school," LoAlbo added.

The mother said she met with school officials four times to report that her daughter was being bullied.

LoAlbo said Felicia sent roughly a dozen emails to school officials about the alleged abuse, including one communication just four days before her death.

"She’s telling her teachers. The teachers were witnesses to most of the bullying, physical altercations that were happening in classrooms and on school trips," LoAlbo said.

"She herself had written numerous emails to the administration detailing the events, yet no one was ever questioned," LoAlbo told NJ.com. "They have swept under the rug, the bullying that she and so many other kids in that school have encountered and now they're doing the same with this investigation."

In one email, Felicia asked school officials to offer a "trauma club," where students could have a safe space to discuss mental health issues.

"Instead of a drama club, it would be a Trama [sic] club! Trama [sic] is not a light subject to talk about, but I believe that having somewhere that people can go to, destress and let out all of their feelings and emotions," Felicia wrote.

"I hope that this does happen," Felicia said. "I, for one, have heard from my friends and others about things that have happened to them and I think this would be a fantastic thing. Have a great night."

Elaina shared an ominous audio recording on Felicia's cellphone where the 11-year-old girl is telling people to be nice and "don't be a bully."

"Never ever ever ever be a bully," Felicia said in the audio. "Never be a bully. Or no one will talk to you. But I don’t want that."

Robert Mungo, superintendent of the Mount Holly Township School District, said they were cooperating with the Burlington County Prosecutor's Office.

"Our district suffered a loss, which continues to weigh heavily on the school community," Mungo told Fox News. "School counselors and administrators, with the support of the Burlington County School Crisis Response Team, have and will continue to increase outreach to students and staff and are prepared to aid them in processing this latest information as they continue to grieve."

"We remain focused on strengthening our support system for students, especially regarding their social and emotional well-being," Mungo added. "Beyond that, we are committed to a culture that involves our entire school community in making our schools safe and secure for every student."

LoAlbo declared, "My next steps will be so that no other parent has to fight like I do and no other child ever has to suffer like my daughter has."
