Scary story

Ok, so I haven’t been posting anything in a really long time. And I should be trying to make up for that. But in the meantime, I have this extremely disturbing story to report from Australia.
Two teenage girls who killed another basically to see whether they would feel remorse because they were sure they wouldn’t? That’s really scary stuff. The BBC story is here.
I’m still not sure what to make of this. I guess they’re sociopaths. But what does a society do with people like this? I don’t think executing them is the right thing to do, and so I’m certainly glad that that isn’t what’s going to happen to them, but I’m not sure how they can be treated properly. There’s clearly something very wrong with them. Very wrong.

    this is incredibly freaky! the lack of remorse definitely sounds like a psychopath. how do they only get 15 years? it is scary to think of these girls (they are young!) in the communitiy.
