Attorney for Lori Drew Dean Steward speaks to the media on the steps of the U.S. Federal Courthouse.

The MySpace suicide trial ended today with three guilty verdicts against Lori Drew, the 49-year-old Missouri mother who created a fake MySpace account to torment a 13-year-old girl who wound up committing suicide. Lori Drew was not convicted of the more serious charges of using a computer to intentionally inflict emotional distress on Meier. Read Steven Mikulan's "Bulletin: MySpace Mom Beats Worst Charges."
