Shock as 16-year-old confesses to stabbing classmate who was missing for two months 'just because sh

On May 1, Rachel Shoaf, of Morgantown, pleaded guilty to the second-degree murder of Skylar Neese and she awaits sentencing in a juvenile detention center. Another unnamed girl is also facing charges.

Now, a newly released transcript of a secret plea hearing reveals that Shoaf said she and the second girl carried out a plan to kill Neese....

'I think police who were involved in the front lines of that interview and that part of the investigation were stunned at Rachel Shoaf's confession,' Ashdown told Judge Russell Clawges that day.

'She confessed to a plan and conspiracy with another juvenile to kill Skylar Neese. A plan carried out.'

The three girls drove to Wayne Township, Pa., got out of the car and the suspects pretended to socialize with Neese.

'And, at a planned and agreed upon moment,' Ashdown said, the girls 'attacked and stabbed Skylar to death, and they left her there.'

live openly amongst us and kill with regularity, then -- maybe then -- we'll have the maturity to figure out what to do about it.
