Carlee Russell‘s kidnapping story is slowly melting away and so is her mental health apparently … ’cause her boyfriend is begging the public to cut out all the cyberbullying.
Thomar Lattrel Simmons was interviewed Saturday by the New York Post and made his desperate plea on behalf of Russell.
Simmons said, “The only thing I can say is, I want everyone to stop bullying her. I know what it seems like what she did. Just stop bullying on social media.”
He continued, “Think about her mental health. She doesn’t deserve that. She doesn’t. Nobody deserves to be cyberbullied.”
