Case 91: Carly Ryan
In 2006, Myspace was the biggest social media platform in the world, surpassing Google as the most visited website. Like many teenagers, 14-year-old Carly Ryan turned to the internet to interact with friends and meet new people. It wasn’t long before she struck up a friendship with 18-year-old Brandon Kane, who went by the username ‘KuruptKoala.’

Heartbreaking and frighteningly familiar. Thanks so much for the fantastic storytelling, I love the way you bring us close to the subject’s life and character.
Another great episode not as intense as some others but a story worth telling.
p.s.—if you think my post contained spoilers, please delete!
Such an important story and well done, Everyone! I plan to play it for my step-children, ages 11 and 14, because they are very active on social media. I hope Thread can come to the US.
