PRINCE WILLIAM COUNTY, VA—Two preteen girls are facing criminal charges after conspiring to kill a fellow student at an undisclosed county school, according to Prince William County Police. The girls, 11 and 10, were each charged with one count of conspiracy to commit a felony.
On April 25, police responded to the school after being notified by staff members who had been alerted by a concerned parent. They found that the two girls sent each other text messages conspiring to kill another student. They used cryptic language when communicating and advised that messages regarding the threat be deleted once they were read.
After extensive consultation with the Commonwealth's Attorney, police were directed to obtain a petition for the conspiracy charges.
