The charity supporting the mum of murdered Airdrie schoolgirl Alesha MacPhail has hit out after she was targeted by vicious internet trolls.
FAMS (Families and Friends Against Murder and Suicide) said that Georgina Lochrane, 24, had been “attacked” online and accused of “attention seeking” after the first anniversary of the six-year-old’s death on the Isle of Bute last year. On their Facebook page, the charity said: “You only need to look at Georgina’s eyes to see her grief and distress.
“They won’t understand her need to ensure that Alesha is remembered for who she was, not what happened to her.”
The post led to an outpouring of support for Georgina.
Angela Williamson said: “This young woman is an inspiration. And the trolls that slate her lead a very sad existence.”
Izzy Clark added: “Keep it up Georgina, you are helping so many.

“As for the trolls, can’t even find the words for how despicable their behaviour is.”
Mum Georgina celebrated six-year-old Alesha’s life with a fun day, raising more than £2000 for FAMS, earlier this month.
