Charley-Ann Patterson took her own life in 2020 after being verbally abused online and in school.

Charley-Ann Patterson was targeted by other pupils who called her names, her inquest has heard

A 12-year-old girl who killed herself "suffered some bullying" but the abuse did not "cross the criminal threshold", a police officer has told her inquest.Det Sgt Lee Baldwin said she had been called names, including sexually offensive slurs, and people had clapped in her face to "make fun of her tics".

That had included name-calling as well as comments such as "I hope you get run over by a bus", he added. When Charley was found dead in her bedroom, she had the word "freak" written on her hand and the television was paused on a screen that said: "I'm a misfit."The hearing was told police considered criminal offences including encouraging suicide and malicious communications.

However, Det Sgt Baldwin said: "Although it is possible to find incidents and identify persons who have on occasions said or done something to Charley which would have undoubtedly caused some distress, none of those incidents appear to be sufficient to cross the criminal threshold.He added: "There is nothing to suggest the death was anything other than a suicide."
