A 17 year old girl was killed in a home invasion. She was one of the BG's.

What is interesting to me is that the short article is written in a very pro gun, pro homeowner, pro stand your ground manner. Obviously not written by the Chronicle. There is no mention of the homeowner shooter and their role. An exchange of gunfire is all that is said and it doesn't even say "with the homeowner".
The girl was with two male accomplices who fled after the exchange of gun fire. Both have been arrested and charged with felony murder for their part in her death, as that is the law.
Textbook from both the police work, prosecution and the reporting of the story. Says a lot about Texas and why it is good to live here.
Imagine how this would be reported and prosecuted in lets say Los Angeles, Chicago, New York, Washington D.C., or Standford, Florida.
Really sad that a young girl is dead, I wish that a lot of parents were better at raising their children.

Police said Crumley turned himself in Saturday. Fortenberry was already in custody on unrelated charges. They are charged with felony murder.
Unrelated? Wanna bet?
Are they saying that the homeowner isn't a suspect because he was justified or because he isn't the one that shot her at all? This paragraph just muddles it all up for me.
Those close to Hidic say she was robbed several nights ago. Investigators are looking into whether the robbery is linked to her murder.

Another question is where's the rest of the crew?
βIt was three distinct gunshots, one right after another, boom, boom, boom. I thought it was fireworks going off,β Craig said. βI was over at the water fountain and came around, there were four girls and a dog that were running away from the house.β

Yeah, I'm getting really confused now.
Did the homeowner defend his home from robbery from two men, five women and a dog?
Or did the robbers shoot one of their posse while attempting to rob a house?
Or was the young girl a victim of a street crime and just ended up on the door step of a homeowner?

This blogger is as confused as I am.

Aspiring actress, lived with foster parents or with her mom. Originally from Bosnia, but German. Fancy neighborhood, but described as a duplex. Back door kicked in. Girl worked at a taco place near by, but lived 8 miles away. Apparently though hard to tell from the reporting, the homeowner may have called 911 and then stopped talking when the police arrived other than to say he did not know the girl. But not a person of interest, supposedly. Apparently the story made Nancy Grace last week.
Made the UK papers.

From the Fort Worth paper.

Saying she directed the BG's to the house. May have been in the house before.
At this point I am not even sure if the homeowner shot anyone, since they refer to him coming home and finding the body next to the kicked in door. But in other places they refer to the house having six people in it including children when the door was kicked in.
I'll keep you updated whether you want to be or not.

(edited because my auto-correction did bad things with "Scionka")
Not sure what to believe from the reporting. Some things sound like they conflict each other. I can also tell you, one of the articles quoted Jim and Sue Scionka as former foster parents, then shows a photo of the girl with her "grandmother". Except I know the Scionkas, and the photo was of Sue, and she's not the girl's grandmother.

Another example why one should avoid the "Iron Triangle of Trouble": Going to bad places doing bad things with bad people.

I see a lot of pictures of her in news stories but none of the men accused of murdeing her. Not even mugshots. That has to be intentional.

The first link in the thread has linkable tags with their names that go to their facebook, myspace pages.
I guess today if Bonny and Clyde were robbing banks today we could post "like" and stuff to their pages.

It looks like they met on the football team.

Note to self: If I am ever a pretty 17 year old girl. Don't plan a robbery of a meth house, by having two of my criminal friends break in and pretend to hold me hostage at gunpoint, only after I have sold a gun to the owner of the meth house the day before. Oh and don't make it across the street from an elementary school.
