Thank goodness there aren't any guns that kill people in Australia. They only have people to kill people. A couple of sick and twisted individuals.

Girls 'just felt right' murdering friend

TWO teenagers who wanted to experience murder told police it "felt right" to strangle a friend and bury her body in a shallow grave beneath her West Australian home.

The 17-year-old girls, who cannot be named due to their age, today faced a sentencing hearing in Perth Children's Court after pleading guilty to murdering Eliza Jane Davis in the small coal mining town of Collie on June 18, 2006.

As the girls sat stony-faced in court today, Prosecutor Simon Stone said they had confessed that after partying with Eliza on the Saturday night they decided to kill her.

"Sunday morning me and (her) woke up, and we were just talking, and for some reason we just decided to kill her," one of the girls told police in her interview.

"We just did it because we felt like it, it is hard to explain," the other girl said.

"I knew we had wanted to kill someone before.

"We knew it was wrong, but it didn't feel wrong at all, it just felt right."

The girls planned their attack and changed into old clothes.

One of them snuck up behind Eliza as she was reading, wrapped speaker wire twice around her throat and quickly tightened it as the other held her down, trying to press a chemical soaked cloth into her mouth.

"She started not being able to get her breath, and we just kept going," one of the girls said.

"She was just yelling at us `What the f**k, what are you doing' .. `Oh you freaks, what's wrong with you psychos."

Mr Stone said they chose to strangle Eliza because one of them had to return to Perth that afternoon and they wanted a quick and "non-messy" killing.

"As our friend, we did not really want her to suffer," one told police.

"We didn't really expect to get away with it.

"We were willing to take the risk."

The girls regretted the fuss the killing caused but neither felt remorse for their dead friend, Mr Stone said.

"If she had died another way it probably would have bothered me ... but it just did not," one girl said.

The girls reported Eliza missing after they buried her and pretended to help her family look for the dead girl.

The girls turned themselves in several days later, walking into separate police stations and directing authorities to where they buried her body.

Mr Stone told the court the girls had no remorse and were holding back on the reason behind their cold-blooded, premeditated, sadistic killing.

"It is a mystery your honour, what happened."

He said the girls had discussed killing someone else and one had prepared for homicide by killing two kittens.

"Whilst together (they) will continue to pose some risk to others in custody."

Mr Stone called for sentences of life in prison.

The hearing continues tomorrow.

Thought we were dealing with a troll.

Sorry...didn't mean to sound like a "troll". Just being facetious. :D When some sick individual(s) want to kill, then gun control doesn't solve anything. It just creates a victim. Not that their teen friend would likely have had a firearm even if they were legal. Maybe the best defense here is choosing better friends.
 
Good god, with friends like those who needs the Manson family?

But I think the message here is clear: Speaker wire should be banned, or at the very least federally registered and regulated, and there should be a two-week waiting period when purchasing speaker wire.
 
Make sure you regulate drop-down speaker connectors, and do not forget to regulate the production and sale of wire which can accept detachable connections or wires which can output to more than one device at once (AKA high-capacity wire), as well as wire whose plastic exterior is not firmly and permenantly attached to the wire itself (Wire Shroud). Also, wires which can carry more than 100w of electricity should be considered Class III/NFA.
 
I dont understand this thread, as you showing it just to shock or are you trying to say " look, they dont have guns and she still died!" either way its pretty pathetic.
 
The other posts pretty much say it all. Bad people are everywhere. They don't need guns to kill if that is what they intend to do. A legal knee jerk reaction does not solve the problem.

(sigh) Explaining a joke strips all the fun out of it, retroactively.

If these girls had used a gun, the whole world would be screaming about how it's all the fault of the gun, and that we need to ban guns, but for some reason nobody even considers these thoughts when the murder is committed with some other object. They can't/won't see that the crime was committed a person, not a weapon.
