Just a few days ago outside the Australian city of Perth, two 16 year-old girls strangled a third girl with speaker wire, burying the body under the house. As if the facts themselves weren’t disturbing in themselves, the motive for the killing seems to be no more than curiosity. Saying that killing their victim Eliza Jane Davis, “felt right,” the two confessed killers apparently wanted to find out whether they would feel guilty. The answer? They don’t. They’ve both been sentenced to life sentences by the Australian court, more at “the BBC”:http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/asia-pacific/6639027.stm.

On a less violent but just as strange note, two months ago in an affluent suburb of Atlanta, two 19 year-old women (pictured above) robbed a Bank of America branch. The pair is alleged to have threatened to the teller with a note and then taken their ill-gotten gains on a shopping spree. I found this story through a “personal blog”:http://janabean.blogspot.com/2007/04/how-did-i-miss-hearing-about-this.html but would love to know if there is any more evidence of this or other “Girls Gone Wild, in a Criminal Way” stories out there. Comment if you know anything.
