Student murders classmate for being 'too pretty'

A 12-YEAR-OLD girl has been found guilty of brutally slaying another girl in her class because she thought she was prettier then she was.

China's Guangxi Channel reports that Qin, 12, was jealous of her classmate Zhou, 13, who was more popular, thinner and prettier.

The Guangxi Hechi City Intermediate People's court ordered Qin's parents to pay the victim's family 108,000 yuan - about $17,500. The girl will be put into a rehabilitation program for three years.

I was thinking about that Texas thing.

The mother hired someone to bump off her daughter's rival in the highschool cheerleading competition. Something like that.

Sounds like typical a psycho-soccer mom.

I thought about the Texas murder as soon as I started reading this story. I feel bad for both of those girls' parents. One couple's daughter is now dead and the other couple has a criminal for a daughter.

I have to think life for the convicted girl is going to be either long and empty while serving a life sentence, or will end abruptly with a death sentence.
Being crazy doesn't pay.

12. Can you even fathom murdering someone at that age?

"Qin is reported to have knocked Zhou unconscious with a stool, then stabbed her with a kitchen knife, beer bottle, paper knife and scissors. Qin then cut off her victim's head and arms and placed them in a bag."

"The girl will be put into a rehabilitation program for three years."

I'd put her away for a lot longer than that as I don't think 3 years rehab is going to solve her problems somehow!

In Kentucky, a 12-year-old boy killed his 8-year-old sister. Likely the parents have bad parenting skills, but who knows why in this case.

As for the Chinese girl, 3 years is just a slap on the wrist.

Ever heard of the James Bolger case, the boys involved were around 9 yrs old killing a 2yr old.
