A third teenager has been sentenced to probation after pleading guilty to bullying an Irish student who had been living in the US.
15-year-old Phoebe Prince took her own life after months of bullying.
Flannery Mullins admitted the criminal harassment of Ms Prince and was given probation until she is 19.
She will also have to perform 100 hours of community service with at-risk youth.
Earlier today Sharon Velazquez also admitted to sufficient facts to a charge of criminal harassment, and was sentenced to probation until she turns 18 (she reaches that age in July) and 50 hours of community service.
It is expected the others will plead guilty to the same charge in return for prosecutors dropping the more serious charges against them.
Ashley Longe also admitted to sufficient facts and pleaded delinquent to a charge of criminal harassment.
Ms Prince, originally from Fanore in West Clare, moved
with her family to South Hadley in 2009.
Following a relationship with a fellow student she was suffered months - of what the prosecution called ‘unrelenting bullying’ before she took her own life in January, 2010.
Two others were in court yesterday in connection with the case. 18-year-old Sean Mulveyhill, who once dated Ms Prince, pleaded guilty to a misdemeanour charge of criminal harassment.
As part of a plea bargain - three other charges against him were dropped.
He and Kayla Narey, 18, were sentenced to one year probation and 100 hours of community service.
A sixth student, Austin Renaud, will come before the court in July. He is facing a charge of statutory rape.
