Classmates who killed a 12-year-old girl in a German village may have stabbed her to death by a boy

A fight over a child may have led to two twisted schoolgirls stabbing a 12-year-old classmate to death, as comments from their peers have surfaced on TikTok in a case that continues to horrify Germany.

The two killers, aged 12 and 13, allegedly posted a sick video of themselves dancing on TikTok the day after stabbing their victim, named only as Luise, more than 30 times.

It has since emerged that Luise, who disappeared after leaving the 13-year-old’s home in Freudenberg, was killed by her two classmates ‘in revenge’ after she told an adult they had been harassing her for months, according to the German newspaper. image

Other theories have involved comments, under the girls’ alleged dance TikTok post, indicating that a child was involved.

Luise’s body was found in a pool of blood on Sunday in a wooded area near the town of Freudenberg in the western state of North Rhine-Westphalia, after she was stabbed more than 30 times.

The shocking social media videos came to light during an investigation by a German WELT journalist, who revealed that one of the dance videos was posted on Sunday, the day the victim – known only as Luise due to Germanystrict privacy laws – was found.

The shameless couple also allegedly posted a video asking for help finding Luise on Saturday after she had been “missing since 5pm”, knowing exactly where the schoolgirl’s body would be found after she was stabbed to death.

It is said that many of the girls’ classmates repeatedly mentioned that an unidentified boy had caused the fight between the “best friends”.

The video’s comments section was reportedly flooded with messages, with one person writing, “I can’t believe you’re posting a dance video the day after the murder.”

Another classmate reportedly added: “When your chair in the classroom was empty this morning, we all knew what was going on.”

Other videos posted to the TikTok page were also reportedly inundated with messages asking, “How could you do this?” or ‘I can’t believe it’.

Ever since the TikTok videos surfaced, there has been disbelief that the police, who until now had been very secretive about information about the murder, allowed the 13-year-old killer to remain active on TikTok and did not block the account for users. . He could keep watching the videos of him and reading the comments.

The girls’ social media accounts are now offline, a police spokesman said on Friday, March 17.

Although their profiles are no longer active, especially the videos of the 13-year-old girl have been posted by other users, as well as screenshots of the videos where she is ‘worried’ about her friend or dancing the day after stab Luise.

Luise disappeared on Saturday afternoon, March 11, after a Friday-Saturday sleepover with her 13-year-old friend, who is said to be “more secretive than cheeky,” at her home in the Hohenhain district of the city. two miles from Luise’s own house.

Though they’ve known each other for years, rode the school bus together and were even in the same class at school, it’s unclear why Luise and her killer met in light of the bullying allegations.

Later that day, the 12-year-old boy joined in and the trio walked into a nearby forest. There Luise was allegedly stabbed more than 30 times with a knife in a case that has shocked Germany.

Luise’s body was found in the woods the next day, March 12, after her parents reported the girl missing on Saturday afternoon, prompting a massive police search of the area.

The two girls, who were seen by a neighbor while walking through the woods with Luise, “made statements about the matter and eventually admitted to the crime,” said Florian Locker, head of the Koblenz police’s homicide department.

The 13-year-old girl, who is reportedly part of a patchwork family, is suspected of coercing the younger girl into helping her.

Locker declined to provide further details because the suspects are under 14 and under German law children under 14 do not have the age of criminal responsibility.

Investigators have yet to locate the ‘small knife’ used in the crime.

After the stabbing, the girls returned to the 13-year-old’s home, where her father later picked up the younger girl.

Subsequently, the older girl called Luise’s parents and told them a story of lies, saying that Luise started coming home at 5:30 pm and wanted to let her know once she had arrived.

Since Luise had not called, the 13-year-old girl allegedly called her multiple times because she was “worried” about her, while knowing where Luise really was: stabbed and left to die in the woods.

Police said that during the search and subsequent questioning, the two girls made conflicting statements and both finally confessed on Monday, March 13.

The two girls attended the same school as Luise and were said to be friends.

The parents of the suspects have moved on for the time being but are still in contact with their daughters. The German newspaper Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung reported that the couple had also traveled far from Freudenberg with their families.

Luise’s disappearance sparked a frantic search operation involving a helicopter, sniffer dogs and drones. When she was found stabbed 30 times, the community in the small town of just 18,000 was shocked.

Koblenz prosecutor Mario Mannweiler told a press conference after Luise’s discovery: “The girl died as a result of numerous stab wounds and consequent loss of blood.” He added that there was “no indication of a sexual offence.”

Local residents laid flowers and placed candles near the wooded area where the body was found.

Hendrik Wuest, governor of North Rhine-Westphalia, said the state is “mourning”. And he added: “It is incomprehensible and unbearable that children are capable of such horrible acts.”

He promised that the authorities will do everything possible to discover the motive and the circumstances behind the crime.

Chief prosecutor Patrick Baron von Grotthuss of the Siegen public prosecutor’s office said there may never be more answers about the exact circumstances of Luise’s death, as “we cannot break the law or cross legal boundaries set for us alone. because people believe they have the right to know all the details.

He said that if they are allowed to do so, they will reveal more details, but cautioned that in cases like this, where the victim and suspects are children, “you kind of have to live with it to not know everything.”

“After more than 40 years on the job, you still have cases that leave you speechless,” said Jürgen Süs, vice president of the Koblenz police directorate.

Luise’s school replaced their home page with a condolence message.

“We lost our student, classmate and friend Luise over the weekend,” the Esther-Bejarano Comprehensive School in Freudenberg said in the statement.

‘Too soon, she was violently torn from our midst and from her family. Our thoughts and wishes are with her family and friends now and in the days to come.”

A condolence book for Luise and a card reading “We mourn Luise” are on display in the Freudenberg Protestant church.

The case revived memories of the notorious 1993 murder of two-year-old James Bulger in England. The little boy was kidnapped and tortured before being killed by two 10-year-old boys, Robert Thompson and Jon Venables.
