Collie murder

The Advertiser: Cloth 'muffled girl's screams' :

"It is alleged that when the two 16-year-olds awoke on Sunday morning, they worked out how to kill Ms Davis before seizing her in one of the bedrooms of the split-level house."

I have had to divorce myself emotionally from this. It is so horrible. As I had said it totally struck us dumb when we first heard it. Eliza, the girl who was killed, was to all accounts a happy, healthy, normal girl. When you read this article it sheds no light and sounds even more bizarre. It reads as though the other two girls were drones, like robots. They all went out dancing on Saturday night and the two of them were supposed to have got up on Sunday and planned the murder. They were supposed to be happy and friends. What 16 year old Australian girls get up on a Sunday morning and plan to strangle their friend? On that very morning? With speaker wire and I guess the flannel was stuffed in her mouth? It's like they were just robots . 16 year old girls would be laughing, chatting, maybe getting far too loud and playing loud music. Maybe cooking pancakes on a cold day ...certainly listening to music and just full on chatting. Have you had 16 year old girls over at your place? They are full on!...or, since they were out the night before, they might have been pretty sleepy for a while. 16 year old can't even get their washing in the wash and their bed made let alone murder someone in a very hands on way and then drag the body downstairs to bury it and leave it there under the house. 16 year old girls can be a bit morbid and into the supernatural and all of that, but they are basically not good on real life squeamish. I'm sorry, we have got to get to the bottom of this. That young girl has died for no good reason and I don't want to live in a country where this happens and we do not understand how it happened. We are speechless and dumb struck and the instinct is to pretend it hasn't happened. Why chuck her stuff in the river? At 16 they would know the police would search the local area. And what did they do till Wednesday? Go to school? Pretend it was all normal? That's 2 pretty tough girls. They really sound like they were programmed. Did they text each other to go to the police? One in Perth, one in Collie? We have to understand this because people have girls at school. How could they wait till Wednesday and why? Did they think , at 16, the police wouldn't mind very much if they went and said? That they'd get a detention? You don't get up on a Sunday morning and decide to murder your friend. Presumably they had to overpower her? Sexist as it may sound, it doesn't sound like 16 year old girls at all. Doesn't sound like 16 year old anyone. It sounds like robots. What is to become of these girls? Eliza's family must be so traumatised. If we can't deal with it, how must they be feeling? Why? I know. We are all asking why. It is something for us to understand so we do not have to let our young ones be like this.
