12-year-old girls are perfectly able to get up to horrible acts without the Internet. See this horrible event which happened fairly near to where I grew up: Cruel Sacrifices (book by Aphrodite Jones. Teenage girls tortured, mutilated, and killed another girl — " …a tragic story of twisted love and insane jealousy, lesbianism, brutal child abuse, and sadistic ritual killing in small-town America." (from the link)
I was interested in everything but the lesbianism!
I’ll take any lesbianism you don’t want. Hate to see it go to waste.
Great news: the stabbing victim is out of the hospital–surprising after 19 stab wounds.
12 year olds tend to lack the muscle to do all that much harm.
One of the girls was found mentally incompetent so won’t stand trial:
Well, if she turns her life around and one day has kids, she’ll be able to say, “When I was your age I was found mentally incompetent. Now clean up your room!”
or i’ll get stabby.
Another case:

Luckily they weren’t hurt.

The victim’s name is Payton Leutner (apparently the parents are no longer interested in protecting her privacy)
