A jury on Wednesday found 16-year-old Teah Wimberly guilty of murdering her 15-year-old classmate.Wimberly was 15, when she shot and killed her friend, Amanda Collette, in the hallways of Dillard High School in Fort Lauderdale, FL. Now she faces a possible life sentence.
During a 23-minute statement to police, Wimberly said she had been in a lesbian relationship with the victim, whom she was deeply in love with, and became upset when the girl broke up with her."I love her more than I love any human on earth," Wimberly said. "I can't believe I hurt her."
Wimberly's attorney, Larry S. Davis, says tragedies in the teen's early years are what brought her to this point. He says abandonment, sexual molestation and beatings in her childhood lead to a mental ilness.
Davis will try to have the teen confined to mental facility, instead of a prison.
The victim, an adorable ballet dancer, loved to text her friends and have fun on weekends. The smartest girl in her classes, she always knew the right thing to say. She was apart of a dance group called "Wreckless" and had danced at her friend's Sweet 16.
The murder occurred in November of 2008. The honor student was summoned to a vending machine by Wimberly.
After a confrontation, Wimberly fired a single shot, killing Collette with a bullet to the torso.
Shortly after the shooting, Wimberly fled to a nearby restaurant, where she dialed 911 and surrendered to police.
I was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease four years ago. For over two years, I relied on Levodopa and several other medications, but unfortunately, the symptoms kept getting worse. The tremors became more noticeable, and my balance and mobility started to decline quickly. Last year, out of desperation and hope, I decided to try a herbal treatment program from NaturePath Herbal Clinic.
ReplyDeleteHonestly, I was skeptical at first, but within a few months of starting the treatment, I began to notice real changes. My movements became smoother, the tremors subsided, and I felt steadier on my feet. Incredibly, I also regained much of my energy and confidence. It’s been a life-changing experience I feel more like myself again, better than I’ve felt in years.If you or a loved one is struggling with Parkinson’s disease, I truly recommend looking into their natural approach.
