Gone too soon

Adriana was a freshman student at Central Regional High School.

She loved animals, was loved by her family, and even saved the life of a then-8-year-old child, Luciana. Adriana rescued Luciana months ago when she saw the younger girl beginning to drown in her pool after having swallowed some of the pool’s water.

Video footage, along with confirmation from Luciana’s mother, shows Adriana taking off her jacket and then rushing into the water to help the struggling Luciana.

Sadly, during Adriana’s time at Central Regional High School, she dealt with bullying. Earlier this month, the 14-year-old ended her own life after being violently assaulted in school by four different girls.

This assault was filmed and later posted on the internet. The bullies involved would continue to taunt Adriana, sending her cruel messages even after footage of the assault made the rounds on social media.

How did this happen?

On Friday, February 3, Adriana was discovered dead. According to her father, Michael Kuch, Adriana ended her life after one of the bullies sent her a nasty message, mocking her for the assault she endured days prior.
