    Essex police and school officials warned the mother to cancel the party after rumors spread that revelers were going to ruin it, but the mother insisted she would keep an eye out for trouble.

The stupid - it hurts. 15th birthday. Yolo. Facebook. It's liek the devils trifecta. And for what sensationalist reason does anyone need the full name of the girl/affected family?

Well is sounds that, the girl, and the mom, were calling for it. I mean how normal could it be to receive a call from the police, that people are going to your party, just to trash your house.

"Yes excuse me ma'am. There is a tornado headed your way. Just thought we'd let you know." "Oh I'll be fine, I have a fan to blow the other direction." "Whatever you say ma'am."

Well, I think there is the belief that "It'll never happen to me" that affects people's decision process. How often do you hear about 100's of people showing up and trashing a birthday party of. 15 year old? Although the police calling should have warned her, the insurance not covering it seems like a low blow.
