Taylor Meyer Found Deceased

• one of the saddest stories i've ever heard. i don't know taylor on a personal level but i do know a lot of your friends and they all miss you so much. my heart goes out to your family and friends. i'm not sure what people are fighting about on this comments but this is no time to fight. i hope you rest in peace and keep shining down on the people who love you and miss you every day.

• ... taylor(tata)was my baby sitter she was my friend she was my moms best friend and my best friends baby sitter too shes so kind ,sweet,and loving.i miss her so much . nobody killed her she just took off from the airport to walk .before she went to the airport she was at a party with beer and we belive that she might of drank some.her coisin goes on my bus saying why is it that the good ones always die after he said that we saw a sign that siad r.i.p talor myer.the end <strong>NOTE FROM STEVE: I'm very sorry you lost Taylor. I have edited your comment just a little bit because you are really too young to be commenting online. But thank you, and know that the sadness will get better.</strong>

• She is an idiot for drinking in the woods for a group of friends and if she died it's her own fault, she should know better than to be retarded enough to go off drinking. Stop acting like her death is such a tragedy, drugs addicts die all the time everyday and no one gives a crap about them, why should anyone care about Taylor? Stop claiming this is all because of alcohol when really it's because the parents did a shitty job preventing their daughter from making retarded decisions and they wound up getting her killed.

• Death is a tragic affair, but her death was caused in part by her underage drinking. If she wasn't participating in an illegal activity, then she wouldn't have died.

• I feel compelled to add my two cents...I am very respectful of Taylor's parents as my own brother was killed in a drunken driving accident 20 years ago. It shaped the whole course of my life in addition to my parents and my sister. The drunken driving accident was caused by my brother. He was out partying while home from college. They were partying where we had all partied for years, as was the case with Taylor. I am now dealing with our 16-year-old son and his friends - all "good kids" who play football, basketball, sing in the choir, play in the band, make honor roll...yet can't seem to go to a movie without drinking first. All of us parents are well aware of it and this past weekend, my son along with 4 of his friends finally got caught at it. My son told us who he was with...but not what they would be doing. We are going to court today so that he can answer for this...and this is where I have to say that unfortunately, unless parents DO take a stand, these tragedies will continue to happen. My son will be grounded until next year sometime. Maybe longer. He more than likely will not be able to play any sports. He just got his license and a JEEP - it will be parked. What happened to Taylor was not a tragic accident...it is a sad conclusion for Taylor and her family due to a night of drinking. My family has been through it and it wouldn't be any easier today than it was 20 years ago. I have the family in my thoughts and prayers.

• My heart goes out to the family. I'm from Sharon...not too far from plainville,wrentham,KP.. and i know some people that knew Taylor. This is so sad and such a tragedy. we all know what should have/could have happened but it did not, so we focus on celebrating her life instead which from what i understand was amazing. Unfortunately we've lost someone special..but i pray that Taylor's Family gets the comfort that they need to make it through this difficult time.

• God bless this young lady. Noone deserves to have thier lives snuffed out forever..She will never walk this earth again and her friedns and family will never get to hug and kiss her.

• SHE IS AN HERO

• My condolences to the family and to the girl's community. Although i didnt personally know taylor, i know some of her friends, and after losing a senior at my high school last year i know how devastating it is for the entire school and community. TO LADY M: I would think that an adult and mother of her own children would know when to not open her mouth and be disrespectful and condescending to people who are obviously torn up and in mourning. SO MATURE OF YOU. And just for your information, high school parties have been common for decades, esp for seniors. It may not be "responsible" but its a fact. it happens. YOUR kids will do it too. Im sorry you had no life in high school. But the FACT OF THE MATTER IS... you dont know the facts about why her parents let her out, who she was with, and the circumstances following that night, so stop making assumptions about how horrible and irresponsible her family was. GET OVER YOURSELF! you dont know them or her, so just back off and shut your mouth and dont say anything. It was a tragedy and has hurt the entire community, we dont need your pettiness and self righteous attitude to make this horrible situation any worse. She was a senior, most seniors who are about to be 18 dont have strict curfews since they are legally considered adults at 17 [no not 18, they can be charged, and found responsible for actions as young as 16 by law] and just because she ddnt have a curfew that nite [again we dnt know the circumstances] doesnt mean her family ddnt love her greatly! SO GET OFF YOUR HIGH HORSE. and i think its funny that your going on about fighting online, when youre the one who has posted and argued with ppl on here numerous times. HAVE FUN BEING TERRIBLE AND INCONSIDERATE AT LIFE!

• rest in the sweetest peace taylor, i'll never forget about you<3. my prays go out to her family.

• The entire school is in mourning? Man, she really got around.

• everyone loved taylor. rest in peace baby. we'll never forget you.

• to all you people who are saying all this stuff about the parents and supervisions shut it. yes it is a case about a tragedy that should not have happened but listening to f***ing morons like you make people like us pissed off. just because you shelter your children and treat them like 5 year olds is the reason why they have no life. As a friend of the family and taylor she was a very responsibly girl who just made a very tragic mistake. **** you ppl who are bad mouthing anything about the situation

• I was so sorry to hear of the tragic ending for Taylor. My prayers go out to her family and friends. Please accept my condolences.

• LadyM - I agree that some parents are way too lenient with their children. I knew several in high school who never had to check in, would be gone for days without calling, etc. BUT it has stated in more than one article that Taylor had told her mother she was staying the night with a friend so her mother was not expecting her back at any point that night. THAT is why you need to get the whole story before you get on your soapbox because when you don't you just look kinda silly.

• I'll never get over how frequently a "student" has more maturity than a lot of adults.

• as a student at king philip and friend of taylor, i just ask that we not fight about this or argue. This is a tragic incident that cannot be change. Yes, maybe it could have been prevented, and maybe the parent should have done something else but that does not matter. fighting on the internet makes things worse. all we can do is pray for her, her family, and friends in this time of tragedy and try to get through this. No one deserves to have that happen to them, and no one should have to go through this pain that many are going through. all i ask is that everyone pray and learn from this. Thank you

• This is so sad, I will be praying for the family.

• I apologize for assuming it was anything other than a natural or accidential death with no one else involved. I truly hope that is the case, however I guess we will have to wait and see what LE has to say.

• LADY M HAS A GOOD POINT - MAKE SURE YOU KNOW WHERE YOUR KIDS ARE AND WITH WHO AND DO NOT BE AFRAID TO CHECK UP ON THEM IT MAY SAVE THEIR LIFE! WHY DO YOU ATTACK PEOPLE WITH COMMON SENSE IN AMERICA? LADY RIGHT ON!!!! STOP MAKING EVERYONE ELSE RESPONSIBLE FOR POOR SUPERVISION!! I BET THE DEFUNCT AIRPORT GETS A LAWSUIT!

• All the people critizing me for being disrespectful respond with blatant personal insults against me. Nice! My point is not to distrust your children, and yes I have been happily married for years with two wonderful children to boot thank you, but if they aren't home at curfew to call them. Check up with them when they are out. Make sure they are ok. Anything can happen in an instant. That is not ridiculous! It is ridiculous to watch the news everyday and hear these tragedies and to know that in many cases one call, one person checking in would have made a difference. It does not help now but perhaps it will save someone else's child. Yes I really have issues by wanting to save lives..sheesh people. I'm so terrible at life! Way to go by actually being disrespectful and rude. Let me know how insult a complete stranger on the Internet works out for you in life or maybe someday you will learn to hear advice and take it for what's it worth when your defenses go down. Have a great day, it'll be better if you aren't so rude ;) I'll continue being terrible at life =)

• Truly sad, I can't help but wonder what kind of people her "friends" were that let her what into the woods drunk at that party. What happened to the buddy system? my heart goes out to her family.

• Thanks Steve. This is clearly a premature stage of the investigation, we are all hoping for more information as it comes out. But then again, we cannot jump to conclusions in regards to her disappearance and death. Lets have some respect, people. I am a student as well, and we are all grieving at this time.

• I'll echo what B wrote -- we don't know what happened to Taylor, yet. I cover missing persons cases in this blog because many of the same people who like to read crime stories are interested in missing persons stories. That doesn't mean every missing persons case involves a crime, so let's not make that leap yet. The circumstances are odd, yes, but we don't know if they're criminal.

• Best wishes to the family, hoping for the best during this awful time. Didn't know her personally, but she sure seemed like she was well put together. Kat: Let's not jump to conclusions, as this must be a very hard time for her family and friends. Leave the rest to her family and cooperating law enforcement. Condolences.

• To LadyM apparently daddy wasn't there for you... get over it. What parent wouldn't want to trust their child. If you ever have kids (and of course that would mean you would need to find some who would actually have children with you) and they tell you that they are spending the night at a friends house are you really going to call all of their friends and all of their friends parents at their curfew to see where they are. Good luck on life, seems like you are pretty terrible at it.

• Steve, I am from the area and only about 10 years older than Taylor. I don't know her but do know her mother, and the family is pretty well known. In this area of Massachusetts it is VERY common after football games and on weekends to have high school parties in the woods. Often kids get alcohol. When I was in high school kegs were at times involved. In some areas the police know about them, but when they break up a party in one area, the kids just find someplace else to go the following weekend. It sounds like this was the case on Friday, and the results were tragic. Regardlss of what happened, I unfortunately don't see this changing the parties the kids have. Certainly nothing the police have done has worked as of yet...

• Shoulda-coulda-woulda's doesn't heal wounds or comfort those who mourn. Condolences.

• Absolutely Sad. Being a Mother of three I cannot imagine the pain this famiy is in. The family will be in our prayers. One thing I don't understand is this was a underage drinking party (which we had when I was younger in Pastures we called them pasture parties) there were other teens there. Where were her friends? We always stayed in a group. Did she drive there? If not who did she ride with? How could they leave without her? This really doesn't add up. Friends are suppose to stick together. How could they leave her? hopefully she did not suffer.

• this story is absolutely terrible. although i did not know her on a personal level, she will be missed dearly. My heart goes out to the parents, grandparents, friends and other family members as this story impacts all of their lives. i will continue to pray for taylor and all of the people her death impacted.

• welcome to the internet people

• Okay I agree with the other student this is a tradegy and we are praying for taylor, her friends and her family. and nobody should be making negative remarks towards this awful situation brought upon everyone and on behalf of KPHS we are ALL prayiing for them.

• I pray that other teens will learn the dangers of drinking. It is not only when you are to drive that you teens need to be careful..drinking too much can make you loose your judgement and in this sweet Taylor's case her life. My heart goes out to her family and to her friends. I hope a bit of good can come of this with other teens learning from Taylor's mistake.

• LADYM your comment is really rediculous. You dont know the whole story. She probably already told her mother she was sleeping over a friends house and she assumed she would be back saturday. i could be wrong but still you dont know what happened you just read the news. be a little more sensitive. If your child dies i can guarantee you i wouldn't say some disrespectful garbage like that. teens are never going to stop partying so it's up to people to just be more responsible and make sure they understand the consequences of their actions. PARENTS dont imprison your kids just be watchful and make sure they know how to be responsible and take care of others as well as themselves. KING PHILLIP and THE FAMILY my heart pours out to you in this tough time. my mother was high school friends with the mother and tells me she is a great mother so don't belittle her like that

• LADYM YOUR A ***** WE JUST LOST A FRIEND/CLASSMATE/FAMILY MEMBER NO NEED TO BE A ******* ****ABOUT IT

• Taylor we will miss you you were loved and all of us at kp were hopeing you were ok and it was a shock to hear theh news we will truely miss you rest in peace<33

• Stop allowing teens to go party as though it's a rite of passage! The tragedy here is that it was acceptable for a 17 year old to not return home all night and her parents simply assume she stayed the night somewhere. If not home by curfew, call each and every friend's cell phone and parents home until you find your child. Read the news... no way is it ok to assume where your kid is. So what if it embarasses your kid(s) - at least you will know where they are and will have them home that night. BE A PARENT NOT A FRIEND.

• I was devastated to hear the news. Farkitrol is an insensitive ass who does not even deserve much more than - think about if it was your sister or daughter... I think you would be a little less particular about hair color. I know her mother as I said earlier and my heart completely pours out for her and her family at this time of tragedy. As always we hope for happy endings but life isn't always kind. And to the students of King Phillips I also feel your pain and are together with you in this time of grief. I hope you all can remember her in a good light and push on in her memory. (I also feel awful for the guilt that some of you feel - those of you who haven't always had a kind word to say) Life is way too short to hold grudges and be ignorantly unkind - you also could be here one day and gone the next. It's unfair but it's reality. Blessed Be.

• Maybe we should not waste our words on Farkitrol, he/she has obviously not been following Steve's blog on crime or he/she would know there is NO truth to the comment/question about blue/blonde. We need to put our energy into helping her family and friends cope with the devastating loss of this lovely young person.

• Okay, Farkitrol...go to hell. Don't talk about people like that. This is a tragedy, and the entire school is in mourning. Have some respect...

• To the friends and family of Taylor, my condolences. I hope you find out what happened and anyone responsible (if foul play) is held accountable. To Farkitrol, since it doesn't look like I can respond on the earlier post - if you had followed Steve's case coverage over the years, you would not accuse him of covering only blond/blue missing girls. That's just hogwash.

• I am so sad about this young lady. My heart goes out to her family and friends. We can only pray that the person responsible for the evil act is caught and made to pay for his/her/their actions.
