Jesus. Poor girl. And her family and friends. Just awful.

Unbelievable, just kids.

I got choked listening that news report too... absolutely gutting

So very sad, can’t even imagine children doing this to another child.
Her poor family.

Shocked and sickened by the reports.
Ava White and my own daughter are the same age; I cannot begin to imagine the pain of such loss.

What possible situation leads to a tragedy like this?

 

[roadrash]

try as i may i just find this so hard to comprehend

There have been some horrible news stories this week. The world is not a nice place 😢

When I was the age of those arrested after this horrible incident we also carried knives, but they were penknives and sheath/bowie knives. No way would we use them to stab someone. They were used for stripping bark off branches to make 'dens', carve names in trees, knife throwing practice at trees etc. Those arrested face a life of trouble if found guilty. The girl's family and the families of those arrested will now sadly be in a very bad place!

Have to say, I actually shed a few tears when i saw that.
One crazy act and so many lives ruined.

Yeah, as hardened and cynical as I am I was really shocked and saddened to read about this.

What a horrible, dysfunctional dystopian world we've created for ourselves
