The Niall Boylan Podcast (They Told Me To Shut Up)

My Daughter Took Her own Life Because Of Bullies (Jackie Fox)


Listen Later

In this emotionally charged interview, Niall engages in a poignant conversation with Jackie Fox, the courageous mother of Nicole Fox, affectionately known as Coco. Nicole's life tragically came to an end at the age of 21 after enduring three years of relentless abuse and bullying.

Jackie's grief transformed into activism, leading to the creation of Coco’s Law—a groundbreaking legislation enacted in the Dáil in 2021. Designed to combat online abuse, cyber-bullying, and image-based abuse, Coco’s Law imposes penalties of up to seven years in prison for those found guilty.

Jackie's tireless advocacy not only sparked significant changes in Ireland but also drew the attention of the European Parliament. Invited by European leaders, Jackie is scheduled to address the Parliament, sharing Nicole's story and advocating for the implementation of Coco’s Law across all European countries.

During this heartfelt conversation, Jackie opens up about the personal toll of her fight for justice and reflects on her daughter's enduring legacy. Despite the painful journey, she expresses gratitude for the support received and acknowledges the positive impact of Coco’s Law, which is now being discussed in schools by law enforcement.

Join Niall and Jackie in a powerful exploration of resilience, justice, and the ongoing battle against online bullying, as they strive to turn tragedy into a legacy of hope.
