Interview: Marla Godette On The Tragedy Of Rio Allred

Our community is being rocked by the tragedy of Rio Allred. Rio is a 12-year-old girl who took her own life after she was relentlessly bullied after she came down with alopecia and began losing her hair.

Elkhart Community Schools knew about the bullying and did nothing to intervene on Rio’s behalf, that we are aware of.

Marla Godette is a mental health professional who was at Rio’s candlelight vigil. She offers advice to parents who might have the same thing happening to their child at school. Advice that most parents don’t know and most schools don’t want you to know.
