An eight-year-old girl who died after being tortured with stun guns and hot irons was forced to eat her own faeces after her father and his mistress left her to starve in a locked toilet, a Dubai court heard.

Wadeema al Sherawi had been deprived of food and was locked up as punishment for being ‘naughty’ on the night she died – and in desperation, she ate her own waste before vomiting as a result.

Her father Hamad Saoud al Sherawi, 29, and his mistress Al Anood al Ameri, 27, have been charged with torturing and imprisoning Wadeema and her seven-year-old sister Mira, killing Wadeema and burying her illegally.

The Emirati couple are said to have beaten the girls with electrical wires and metal bars, poured boiling water on them and burned them with hot irons and cigarettes.

A policeman told Dubai Court of First Instance that Wadeema and Mira – who survived the abuse but was left with a permanent disability – were often left unfed and sometimes ate their own faeces.

Emirati police officer Essam Obaid, 35, told the court: ‘The girl and her younger sister were left unfed in the flat.

‘On the night [Wadeema] died, she vomited a lot because she ate her own faeces.

‘She and her sister used to eat mouldy food and sometimes their own faeces.’ 

A second witness in the trial, police corporal Mubarak Ahmed Taleb, 34, said the studio apartment where the couple lived with the two girls was filthy and ‘not fit for humans to live in’.

He told the court it reeked of stale urine: ‘It smelled really bad and was dirty. There was only one bed and the furniture was turned upside down. The girls’ clothes stank and there was mess everywhere.

‘The fridge was full of food which was out of date. No one could live in it.’

He said when his investigation team searched the flat, they found two irons with brown marks on them and said: ‘They had used them to burn the girls.’

He added they found some of the implements of torture, including metal bars, sticks and stun guns.

Al Sherawi and Al Ameri, who have just had a baby boy called Saoud while being held separately in captivity, stood in court while judge Maher Salameh heard the case against them.

Al Ameri clutched her sleeping newborn baby to her chest wrapped in a blue checked blanket.

The pair were arrested after the girls’ uncle visited the flat in International City, Dubai, and was told by Mira of the abuse.

He initially blamed both of them for Wadeema’s death but later changed his story, saying Al Sherawi was ‘a great father who loved his children’.

Al Sherawi has denied all the charges and only admits burying Wadeema in the desert while his mistress has pleaded guilty to all the allegations.

Mr Obaid said today: ‘When I questioned Al Anood, she claimed she saw Wadeema vomiting heavily and was very sick that evening so she called Hamad and asked him to come to the flat.

‘They left her until 5am in the toilet and when they went to check on her, she was dead. She vomited because she ate her own excrement.

‘Al Anood admitted heating the irons and torturing the girls. She said Wadeema was tortured because she did not listen and was disobedient.’

The judge said: ‘Was there no other way she could teach her children?’

Mr Obaid said Al Anood told him they had washed and dressed Wadeema before burying her in the desert.

He said he had not interviewed Mira. The little girl gave evidence in court yesterday but after Al Sherawi, who was clean-shaven for the first time in the trial, refused to carry on with proceedings unless reporters were banned, the trial was heard in chambers.

Wadeema’s body was found in June but was so badly decomposed, forensic experts could not tell how she had died.

The girls’ natural mother Salma Obaid had to give them up in November 2011 after losing custody and had not seen them for six months when Wadeema died.

She married Al Sherawi in 2002 and divorced him in 2006. She previously told the court she tried to convince him to let her see the girls but was forbidden contact with them.

A forensics expert said Mira had been lucky not to die from her injuries. The case was adjourned until November 25.

 

An adult performer has revealed how her virtual clone is now raking in $20,000 (£16,000) a month – earning her more than her real pornographic shots.

Sika Moon, a 28-year-old model from Berlin, used artificial intelligence (AI) to make a copy of herself, which she has been using to engage with thousands of fans online.

Despite five years industry experience, the model’s virtual clone is gaining far more traction than she herself ever did, with Sika now in the top one per cent of Fanvue earners in the UK. 

But Sika doesn’t seem to mind, as the lifelike ‘virtual girlfriend’ project allows her to express creativity in a way that was previously unimaginable in the adult industry.

‘After five years of working in the adult entertainment industry, I got bored of the repetitive and uncreative work in this business,’ Sika told MailOnline. 

‘I decided to get back to creating art – and got fascinated by the potential of AI supported art creation.

‘So, I recreated myself with the help of AI tools to be the girl I always dreamed to be – perfect, forever young and smoking sexy every minute of the day – smart, but with my personality.’ 

Sika claims her virtual clone is based on her ‘real face and body’, and calls it a ‘part of me’.

‘She’s a part of me. And I love her!’ she told MailOnline.

‘My fans know she’s like me and there’s no agency, chatbot or random nerd chatting.’

Like OnlyFans, Fanvue is a site that allows content creators to monetise their images and videos.

Users can view Sika’s content and ‘chat with her’ for $10.99 (£8.82) a month.

Subscribers can even request custom-made content, which Sika claims is often surprisingly ‘normal’ and not ‘smutty’.

The news comes amid a wave of AI-generated girlfriends, with some charging as much as $1 (80p) per minute for ‘erotic discourse’. 

In some cases, fans are prioritising their fake, virtual connections over human relationships as a way of fulfilling unmet sexual desires. 

This was the case for ‘Sonia’ who was previously revealed to be sexting a bot named ‘Idris Elba’ – unbeknown to her husband. 

The AI model industry is now booming, with thousands of virtual characters flooding platforms including Instagram, TikTok and Twitter.

‘This really is just the start for the AI creator economy,’ Sika said.

‘Sika has built an engaged community of fans that share everything with her – it might be about work stress, what to get their partner for their birthday – that sort of thing, and they’re more than happy to support me because I’m their virtual girlfriend and feel with them. 

‘And I’m thankful for every single one of my lovely new friends, fans and supporters.’ 

Influencers like Sika often use the tool ‘Anydream’ to assist with the creation of their virtual alter-egos.  

This image creation site uses both photographic and text prompts to generate realistic images of any man, woman or non-binary character that is desired. 

Controversially, ‘bad body’, ‘gross proportions’ and ‘supermodel’ are among just a few default prompts on the site.

One prompt even uses the term ‘cute feminine Lolita dress’ – referring to the troubling novel in which an adult man becomes obsessed with a 12-year-old girl. 

As a result, psychologist Dr Catherine Hallissey warns that developers must take more caution and steer clear of both harmful and inappropriate beauty standards. 

‘Animated images such as these tend to portray flawless skin and exaggerated features which promote an ideal of beauty that cannot be realistically obtained,’ she told MailOnline.

‘When people compare themselves unfavourably to such unattainable ideals, it can negatively impact self-esteem and body image. 

‘In certain individuals, exposure to these unrealistic portrayals of beauty can exacerbate feelings of inadequacy and can even be a trigger for body dysmorphia.’

Sika nor Fanvue are associated with Anydream in any capacity and were not aware of these prompts.

MailOnline has approached Anydream for comment. 

A Belgian cyclist who went viral after he was filmed kneeing a little girl and knocking her to the ground as he rode past her has won his court case against her father for posting the footage online.

A court will determine in April next year how much compensation he is entitled to after he successfully argued he was defamed. He previously demanded €4,500 – roughly the price of his bike.

The footage was filmed by five-year-old Neia’s dad, Patrick Mpasa, during their family walk in a nature reserve in Baraque Michel, Liege Province on Christmas Day 2020.

The cyclist was originally taken to court in Verviers for kneeing the child, only to be given a suspended sentence on the grounds that he had been criticised enough on social media. He was ordered to pay the girl’s family a pitiful €1 in compensation.

The video shows him knocking into the youngster, causing her to topple over. 

But the 62-year-old cyclist – reportedly a father and grandfather of seven grandchildren, who has not been named publicly – sued Mpasa for defamation.

In the video, the five-year-old girl is seen walking by her mother’s side on the snow-covered path as the cyclist approaches them from behind.

Just as he rides alongside the girl, he extends his knee out, hitting the little girl and knocking her to the ground before continuing on his way unbothered.

The family believed it was not an accident, as the man did not stop to check if the girl was okay and carried on cycling down the path.

However, the court decided the cyclist was free to go because he had incurred enough criticism on social media over the incident.

But the story did not end there. Almost a year after the incident, the cyclist went back to court to sue the girl’s father for defamation.

He did so on the grounds that the backlash the video received resulted in him feeling so threatened by the public he was scared to leave his own house.

Jacques Englebert, Mpasa’s lawyer, said in response to the defamation suit at the time: ‘We have the right to express ourselves. We have the right to post or have posted a video on the internet. In this case, we must check whether we have exceeded the limits of this freedom of expression.’

However, Englebert’s arguments were not strong enough in court, and Mpasa has lost the case and could be ordered to pay compensation.

In the footage, which went viral online, the cyclist was seen emerging from a bend in the snowy road before knocking into the young girl and sending her toppling into the snow.  

Furious father Patrick Mpasa, who had been filming his wife and two children, later shared the video on social media asking if people agreed that he was right to complain to the police.   

Mpasa said he had chased after the man and managed to make him stop but the cyclist had been unrepentant.  

‘He explained what happened and asked us to withdraw the police complaint, but he showed no remorse and did not apologise,’ said Mpasa at the time.

‘A lot of people tell me that I should have hit him, but I don’t agree and, in any case, I was in front of my children, which would have made things even worse for them. I also don’t want a witch hunt, I just want him to apologise.’

The family soon filed a complaint with police and both the cyclist and any witnesses were asked to come forward. The cyclist was reported to have come forward by contacting the parents of the child.

During a court hearing on February 3, 2021, the cyclist claimed that the incident had happened because he had tried to keep his balance.

He said: ‘When I was riding close to the girl, I felt my rear wheel sliding. To avoid a fall, I balanced myself with a movement of my knee. I felt that I might have hit the girl, but did not immediately realise she had been knocked over.’

But the prosecution argued his statement seemed very unlikely.

‘He was simply annoyed by the people on the path whom he had to swerve around all the time,’ they said. ‘He gave the child a ”knee punch” out of sheer annoyance because an obstacle was in his way for the umpteenth time.’ 

The local cyclist association described the man’s behaviour as ‘unacceptable’, but the judge opted for lenient treatment, arguing that the man had no intention of harming the girl, the incident was minor and he had already been criticised on social media.

The judge went on to say that the cyclist had already spent time in custody when he was arrested, and ruled that the unnamed man must pay the girl’s family a symbolic €1 (86p) in compensation for the incident.   

While the cyclist had faced up to a year in prison, the court decided to hand him a suspended sentence, meaning he will not face any penalties for his actions so long as he does not reoffend.

This is the first image of the ten-year-old girl whose murder in a children’s home allegedly by a fellow child resident has shocked Germany.

The picture emerged as the father of little Lena spoke about his loss for the first time.

Lena was found strangled in the boy’s room by staff at the facility 12 hours after she died and astonishingly after she had been raped by an opportunistic burglar who broke in through an opened bathroom window.

Speaking to MailOnline, Lena‘s father, who asked to be named only as Werner, expressed his outrage at how father-of-two Daniel Troger, 25, had been able to break in with apparent ease.

And he lashed out at authorities for letting the boy, who had a history of violence and had attacked other residents with a baseball bat, stay in the facility.

Germany has been left reeling by the atrocity which happened in April at the St Josef children’s home in the picturesque Bavarian town of Wunsiedel, 90 minutes north of Nuremburg.

Speaking to MailOnline at his home in the village of Mantel, civil servant Werner, who has been on sick leave since the death of his daughter, said: ‘I just don’t understand how this can happen. How was this man able to get into the home and attack my daughter?

‘The place should be secure. What were the staff doing that night? Why was the window left open? The children are supposed to be safe there but clearly they weren’t.

‘But the other big question is why was this boy even in there? I’ve read he had a history of violence and attacked other children there so why was he there and not in a proper institution with trained staff?

‘There is so much more the police and the authorities should be telling me but they are not. I feel as if I am being kept in the dark here and it is my daughter who is the victim.’

Lena, who was a gifted musician, swimmer and gymnast, had been at the home since November following a custody battle between Werner and his former wife of twelve years Regina.

Their daughter had been temporarily placed in the home but Werner told MailOnline he had successfully applied for her to be allowed to go on holiday with him to the Canary Islands during this year’s Easter break.

Werner said: ‘The day before she was supposed to come out, they said I couldn’t take her with me and so she had to stay there.

‘I still don’t know why they said that but if she had been allowed to come with me as they initially said she would still be here. That’s why I am so angry.’

Werner added: ‘I’ve spoken with the police numerous times and I have seen that this man has been charged with sexually attacking my daughter and the boy killed her but he is too young to face justice.

‘Lena hated it at that home. She was always crying about it whenever I saw her and she said she wanted to be with either me or my ex-wife but they wouldn’t allow it.

‘The best solution would have been for her to stay with one of us. If that had happened, she would have still been alive. That’s why I am so angry.

‘I was allowed to see her once a month for two hours and so was my wife, and every time I saw Lena she was always crying that she didn’t meant to be there.

‘She said one of the other children was trouble and picking on her. I can only assume it was this 11-year-old boy. We wanted joint custody but the court didn’t give it to us – I still don’t know why.’

When asked to describe Lena, Werner blinked back tears and said: ‘How can I have only one memory of her? I have many memories of her, all wonderful, all good. She was my first and only child. I loved her dearly.

‘She was a good girl. She didn’t deserve this and had dreams for when she grew up like any other girl. She was good at swimming; she was a musician and she loved playing the piano and the drums.

‘She liked going out riding and we spent many happy times together and now that is all I have memories.’

Werner added: ‘The police say the case is now closed because the boy cannot face justice because he is under 14 and this other man will go on trial but for me it’s not closed. It’s the authorities who are also the culprits here.

‘If Lena had been admitted to the home she would still be here. She should have been allowed to stay with either me or my wife.

‘But I would also like to know why the window was left open to allow this man to get in and why was he even there? What did he expect to steal from a children’s home? Is there is information I am not being told?

‘I haven’t taken any action yet against the home and the authorities who run it but I am thinking about it.’

In a further shocking revelation, it has emerged Troger and the boy drank beer and watched pornography together at the home in the hours before Lena was attacked and then killed.

But because he is below the age of criminal responsibility in Germany, which is 14, he will not be punished and he has since been moved to another facility elsewhere in the country.

Bin man Troger was arrested by police three weeks after the murder when he turned up for his shift at the local depot where he works in Wunsiedel.

Police linked him to the crime through DNA found at the scene and also through his mobile phone which was picked up in the building.

Troger – who is married with two young children and married to wife Cassandra – has since been charged with rape, burglary and arson.

He is suspected of having broken into five construction containers in the last year and stolen building machinery with more than £12,000.

On his now-deleted Facebook page he describes himself as a ‘proud father’ and that ‘family is the most important thing in the world’, alongside pictures of him his wife and children.

He worked as a rubbish collector in Wunsiedel and lived in nearby Thiersheim where locals remember him as a ‘loner’.

One neighbour said: ‘He didn’t really mix much with anyone. They moved here a few years ago from another part of Germany.

‘I know they have a child of around 18 months old and an older one, who is seven, as she is in the same year at school as my daughter.

‘The wife and he must have had the children very young as she can’t be more than 25 years old.’

When MailOnline knocked on the pastel blue painted house close to the village football pitch, there was no answer, but a trampoline and swings were in the garden.

On her TikTok page Cassandra has posted videos of the children playing in the garden but there are no images of her husband.

Kader Catal, who went to school with Troger, told MailOnline: ‘I was shocked when I saw the news and it gave me goosebumps as I had known him when he was younger.

‘It left a deep impression on me because of what happened to the girl and because I know he has children of his own.

‘To be honest he was a loner when I knew him at school and also quite weird – I can’t believe that someone I knew and who has children himself did something like this.’

A spokesperson for the local prosecutor said: ‘An eleven-year-old boy is suspected of murder and a 25-year-old man has been charged with rape, burglary and arson.

‘There is no evidence that the man participated in the murder of the ten-year-old girl but rather, the 11-year-old boy killed the girl after the man had left the facility, after a dispute arose between the two.

‘Due to the boy’s criminal immaturity, no criminal proceedings can be carried out against him and he has been taken into the custody of responsible authorities.

‘The older man is still in custody and he has confessed during initial questioning.

‘Investigations into possible breaches of duty by the authorities responsible for the dare of the children are still ongoing.’

An eight-year-old schoolgirl has been rescued after she was abducted and stuffed in a suitcase by her family’s apartment caretaker in the Philippines.

Jin Nichole You, who has dual Filipino and Korean nationality, was on her way home when she was bundled into the case in the district of Bakilid in Mandaue City, Cebu province before noon yesterday.

Her family became worried when they realised she had not returned.

Mum Tyree Rendal frantically checked the apartment’s security cameras and was horrified to see an unidentified person in a hoodie inside the property’s gates.

The suspect was seen dragging along a large black suitcase believed to have concealed the girl.

Mandaue City police received a report at around 5pm and launched a search for the missing child.

Officers tracked down the suspect’s location to an apartment in the same district later that evening.

They arrested Godiflor Rama, 32, the caretaker of the apartment where the victim and her parents were staying.

Jin was found dishevelled but alive. She was taken to the Women Children’s Protection Desk of the Subangdaku Police Station where she explained what had happened.

Speaking to local media, Godiflor said: ‘I hope the family can forgive me for what I did. I only did that because they were accusing me of stealing their belongings, like their bags and hangers.

‘I admit that the girl is attractive, but that doesn’t mean that I like her. I did not rape her. I did not sexually assault her.’

Police said Godiflor had used his familiarity with the girl and her family to enact his plan.

In a statement, the Police Regional Office 7 (PRO7) said: ‘The police team immediately utilized modern technology, in-depth investigation and comprehensive intelligence resulting in the successful tracking of the suspect and the victim.

‘Three hours after the incident came to the knowledge of the operatives, an intricate rescue police operation was immediately conducted paving the way to the successful rescue of the victim and the arrest of the suspect.’

Police Brigadier General Anthony Aberin, PRO7 Regional Director, said: ‘I would like to recognize the very swift action of the able, active and allied police operatives of PRO 7 who participated in the rescue operation of the minor kidnap victim and the arrest of the kidnapper.’

Jin has been safely reunited with her mother and is recovering from the ordeal.

Grateful mum Tyree said: ‘I would like to thank the police and investigators from the bottom of my heart. They acted swiftly just to save my daughter.

‘I couldn’t imagine that this kind of thing would happen to us. We love Jin so much, everyone knows what a good girl she is.

‘Everyone’s effort will not be wasted. We will proceed with the legal case to obtain justice for my daughter.’

Diana Jenkins has announced the arrival of her fourth child, a daughter named Elodie Mae Book.  

The Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills star, 49, revealed on Instagram she and fiance Asher Monroe welcomed Elodie on August 8, 2023.  

Diana has a total of four children, but baby Elodie is her second with fiance Asher. 

‘Welcome to the world our sweet little girl,’ she captioned the post. ‘Meet Elodie Mae Book. Born on 8.8.23.’

The photos appeared to have been taken in the hospital, and captured the new parents looking over the moon at the sight of their newborn daughter.  

The infant was wrapped up in a pink and blue hospital blanket as she lay on her mother and father’s chest. 

In addition to Elodie, Diana shares daughter Eliyanah, two, with Asher. She also has son Innis, 22, and daughter Eneya, 19, with ex-husband Roger Jenkins. 

Diana has been proudly showing off her baby bump after confirming her pregnancy back in December 2022. News she was expecting came after she suffered a tragic miscarriage.

A source revealed her pregnancy to People at the time, ‘Diana and Asher are filled with joy. What a wonderful time of year to get news like this!’

Diana confirmed the pregnancy news herself when a social media user commented on an Instagram post with, ‘Mazel Tov in your pregnancy,’ resulting in the star to respond with, ‘Long way to go but thank you.’ 

As the news spread, her Real Housewives co-star, Kathy Hilton, sent her Congratulations on another Instagram post on Sunday, reported Us Weekly. Diana typed out red heart emojis in response.

Back in January Jenkins announced her departure from the RHOBH franchise after just one season, in order to focus on her ‘high-risk’ pregnancy. 

‘As so many of you know, Asher and I are expecting our second child later this year. You also know that due to many factors, this pregnancy is considered high risk and I am on doctor-advised bed rest,’ she wrote along with a selfie of her, Asher, and Eliyanah in bed.

She continued: ‘To that end, I am not able to devote myself fully to filming the next season of Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.

‘I would like to thank Bravo and Evolution for allowing me to focus on my pregnancy, and for their support and understanding.’

‘I promise to continue sharing my fertility journey with you,’ she vowed at the end of the post.

In December, she was unable to attend the 2022 People’s Choice Awards as she dutifully follow her doctor’s orders to remain on ‘bed rest.’

‘She’s feeling great, but because of her health history, she’s on bed rest,’ an insider told People.

The source close to the reality star additionally explained that as a ‘precaution,’ the soon-to-be mother of four is ‘doing everything she can to protect her new blessing.’

The entrepreneur opened up about her recent miscarriage during the 12th season of Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills, revealing that the devastating incident had occurred after she welcomed her daughter, Eliyanah, in 2020.

During an episode of Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills that aired in June 2022, Diana opened up about a pregnancy loss she suffered.

Talking to series vet Kyle Richards, the entrepreneur explained that six months after giving birth to Eliyanah she discovered she was pregnant again.

However, after an appointment with her doctor, it was revealed that her child had passed away and had to be delivered stillborn in order to prevent infections.

Diana, also known as Sanela Diana Jenkins, was born and raised in Bosnia and Herzegovina, but then moved to London where she eventually studied at City University, London.

On RHOBH, she revealed she was only ’19 years old when the war broke out’ and she fled her country as a refugee without a penny to her name.’

‘Cleaning toilets, doing anything to get anything,’ Diana said. ‘I would say that there were a good ten years of my life that were excruciating.’

She tied the knot with British financer, Roger Jenkins, and they share two children together. However, their divorce was finalized in 2011.

Shortly after the divorce, Diana began dating actor and musician, Asher, but had initially crossed paths in 2010.

Since welcoming their daughter in 2020, both stars enjoy uploading adorable photos and videos onto Instagram capturing special moments during their journey of parenthood together.

Diana was a new addition to the cast before her departure this past year. She joined the series last year for season 12.

A schoolgirl who shot her father as part of a pre-planned murder-pact with a friend before turning the gun on herself can be pictured for the first time.

Emma Brown, 12, shot her father, Daniel Brown, 38, in the abdomen at their home in Poolville, Texas, around 30 miles from Fort Worth on September 20, 2022. Emma shot herself in the head and died in hospital two days later. 

Exclusive pictures obtained by DailyMail.com show the father, who survived, and daughter smiling as they posed with a rifle and handguns together before the horror incident.

The seventh grade student had plotted to kill her entire family and pets, along with another 12-year-old girl from Lufkin, Texas, though it is unclear how they met. 

Parker County District Attorney’s office confirmed that the second girl, who has not been identified, was charged with conspiracy to commit murder.

A spokeswoman was unable to give details of the sentence handed to the girl, because of Texas state law protecting the identity of juveniles charged with a crime.

They added: ‘The charge was not dismissed. The allegations were fully prosecuted with a final disposition of the case occurring on March 14, 2023.’

A lawyer for the surviving girl did not respond to a DailyMail.com request for comment.

Brown died two days after shooting herself in the head, with police confirming that she had been planning to drive 230 miles to pick up her pal before driving to Georgia.

A dispatch call from the night of the incident reveals that Brown took off on foot down the driveway, making it just a few hundred yards before shooting herself in the head. 

The emergency services worker can be heard saying ‘the daughter just shot him’ in the master bedroom, after saying ‘nothing’, and it was understood she had been getting ready for bed.

Officers later discovered the schoolgirl lying on the dirt road, with a handgun underneath her body.

The family home appeared to have installed a gate at the front of the property, with a ‘No Trespassing’ sign put up shortly after the tragedy. 

A source told DailyMail.com: ‘It’s an awful tragedy. Her parents didn’t know anything about the other girl, they still don’t.’ 

Her father also has an FFL licence, meaning that he is legally able to store and sell firearms at the family home.

Brown also went to a fathers and daughters dance at Peaster Elementary, where she was a pupil, though it is unclear if she attended with her father.

Daniel was released from hospital shortly after the incident and is expected to make a full recovery according to authorities.

Relatives of Brown did not respond to multiple requests for comment when approached by DailyMail.com.

A cause of death for Brown was given as suicide by Tarrant County Medical Examiner’s office, with the autopsy report sealed.

Parker County Sheriff’s Office and Peaster Elementary did not respond to a request for comment by DailyMail.com.

Mayor of Peaster, Don Smelly, said he was ‘unable to comment’ on the incident.

A spokesman for Parker County Sheriff’s Office said previously: ‘The 12-year-old female juvenile involved in the shooting incident in northwestern Parker County on Sept. 20, 2022, succumbed to her injuries on Sept. 22, at a local hospital.

‘The Tarrant County Medical Examiner’s Office performed an autopsy and ruled the cause and manner of death as a suicide by gunshot wound of the head. 

‘Her father, who was the victim of a gunshot wound to the abdomen was recently released from the hospital is expected to recover.

‘The second 12-year-old female from Lufkin, who Sheriff’s investigators believe was involved with the planning of the shooting, was taken into custody last week and has been charged with conspiracy to commit murder.’

It remains unclear why the girls wanted to kill their families and run away.

‘It doesn’t matter if they live in a small town or a big city. Things like this can happen, unfortunately,’ Lufkin Communications Director, Jessica Pebsworth, said.

‘I will say that this case is definitely a time to remind parents that it’s very important to know who your children are friends with, whether that’s in the classroom, social media apps, Snapchat, TikTok and then also gaming platforms.’

Cops said they are withholding the names of the girls due to their age, and are also not releasing the name of the wounded father to protect the kids.
