Just what the hell is wrong with this world?

I didn't know these girls or the boyfriend they were fighting over, but they look familiar and their names sound really familiar. They did go to the school I usually work at.

Pinellas Park High student stabbed to death


PINELLAS PARK, FL -- The feud between two teenage girls over a boyfriend had been brewing since last summer. It exploded early Wednesday morning when 19-year-old Rachel Wade stabbed to death her rival Sarah Ludemann, Pinellas Park police said.

Pinellas Park Police Captain Sanfield Forseth told ABC Action News.com that Ludemann drove to a house where Wade was staying to confront her over another teen named Joshua Camacho.Words were exchanged and police say Wade stabbed Ludemann with a kitchen knife.

The victim's mother, Gay Ludemann, stood in front of her home, surrounded by friends, and cried as she talked about the murder. "She was a good girl. She was a smart girl," Ludemann said. "We wanted her to be something. Not dead! Not dead! The girl took my daughter's life."

Police say the two girls had been exchanging texts and voice mails all day long. That led to the confrontation in the street in front of 9821 52nd St. Investigators say they found the murder weapon thrown on a nearby rooftop.

Police say they answered calls about fights between Wade, Ludemann and Camacho at least 12 times since August.

The victim, Sarah Ludemann, attended Pinellas Park High School where Principal John Johnston said grief counselors had been called in to talk to students.


So sad. What gets me is that kids, or really anyone, would go this far. A bitchslap or a fist fight I could understand, but a stabbing? WTF???
