This happened in my hometown, and it still hits really hard. I was in the same grade, same classes, same friend groups as everyone involved, so it never felt like some distant story — it was our reality. Belleview was tiny back then, and when you grow up in a place that small, everyone’s lives overlap. We didn’t have much out there, and the rock quarry was just where we all hung out as kids. What makes it even harder is knowing the kind of person Amber was. She had always been a bully — that was just who she was growing up. But even with that in mind, the whole situation was heartbreaking. It changed the community in a way you could feel for years. Something like that doesn’t just fade; it leaves a mark on you, on the people involved, and on the town itself. It’s one of those things that stays with you, whether you want it to or not. Also, Amber and Kyle were given 25 years to life with the possibility of parole at their most recent hearings. If I’m remembering correctly, all of this happened around the same time Charlie got out of prison or before. But I seek pleasure in knowing that Amber is serving at Lowell prison- if ykyk.
Michael tells the judge he doesn't want to die. He probably never thinks about how Seth didn't want to die either.
I wish you could have included the part of the interview when they allowed them to sit in the room together and they didn't know they were being recorded. The woman came back and let them know they were being recorded and heard everything they were saying.
This is so sad! They are 15! They should not be dating and having sex. Their brains are not developed enough to deal with such adult issues!
It always astonishes me how someone doesn't want the death penalty, right after they sentence someone else to death without so much as a hearing. I bet that 15 year old boy didn't want to die either!!
Wowzers! That was a difficult one to hear! I wish Amber would have gotten a much stiifer sentence. Luring someone to their death should carry the same weight as being the triggerman.
I can't imagine how hard it must be knowing you have to report what your own child has done, but imagining how it would destroy you if you said nothing.
My God,why are these kids so serious about a relationship at 14 yrs old? I am glad that grew up in a time, where at 14, we were still roller skating. I just don't get it!
I think they should have ALL gotten the death sentence. They were old enough to decide that Seath shouldn't live. Thank God for the brother & sister's mother. Good job doing the right thing
What a bunch of losers. So much drama and hate over a girl who clearly wasn't worth it. Seath didn't deserve that at all.
