A sleepover between two 14-year-old girls ended in tragedy when they were found hanged in a suicide pact after complaining that they were being bullied at school.Best friends Haylee Fentress and Paige Moravetz left suicide notes in the slumber party nightmare telling their families they loved them.
Haylee’s mother, Tracy Morrison, discovered their bodies early on Saturday morning when she went to check on the girls at her home in Island Lake Township in southwest Minnesota.
Police investigating the deaths believe the teenagers had been planning the hangings for some time.
They even left details about how they wanted their funerals to be carried out in their farewell notes.
‘She requested everything pink and princess and butterflies,’ said Haylee’s aunt, Robin Settle.
The suicides came three days after Paige’s mother and stepfather left for a 10-day break in Hawaii.
Mrs Settle said her niece had only recently moved to the rural area from Indiana with her mother and eight-year-old brother and had complained that she felt ostracised and bullied.
‘I’m shocked and I’m mad and I’m sad. I don’t understand the mentality of kids torturing other kids, kids having to go through this. They don’t think they have anywhere to go to,’ she told ABC News.
‘She was made fun of for being overweight, her red hair. She posted on my Facebook wall that she really wanted to come back, that the people were mean and cruel and she didn’t fit in.’ Read More
