Collie Murder

Girls accused of friend's murder delay plea : "A state prosecutor said the delay was of concern to the family of Eliza Davis, who had come to court to see the girls enter their plea."
I blogged about this Western Australian case of the two young girls who have been accused of murdering their friend and leaving her under the house. It was a very disturbing case and yes, people want to know what is happening. I can understand the difficulty of it because we have two 16 year olds who have been accused of a pretty grim murder and Eliza's family have had to try and come to terms with it all and the loss of their young daughter. There is still a delay in the hearing because one of the accused girls' reports cannot yet be completed. Tricky , tricky stuff and we are going to have to consult well with experts. If the girls did do this, how will we be able to rehabilitate them? If they didn't do it, why are they covering up for someone? I suppose the delay will help the parents become a little bit stronger but it must be horribly hard for Eliza's family and it will be even more difficult to listen to the story. They are going to need a lot of help just to withstand this. The girls will be appearing in court on March 9th.
