Perpetua further called for a serious lesson to be taught on Facebook, highlighting that not everyone on the platform should be taken lightly. She encouraged anyone with knowledge of Nicole Ruth to send her a direct message, underscoring the urgency of the situation.
Broader Implications for Online Safety
