The first time Ashley Campbell warned her child about the possibility of being bullied was because of a navy blue suit. A month before a father-daughter dance, Campbell brought her then 5-year-old to a thrift store to buy a dress. Miles, as he would call himself a decade later, insisted on a suit instead.

But Campbell cautioned that some people might not be kind about the clothing choice. Miles Phipps' family never could have predicted how bad the bullying would get. Or the tragedy that would result.
