SHE was beautiful. Her eyes were just markable. I was gonna there for her. He was going to be there for me. And matter what I was, I thought that maybe he didn't can named there's something that I could have done or anyone had done.

Sky are going missing was a tough pill swallow. First impression was IT could be a runaway.

SHE slowly walked down to a court on the back seat, and SHE drove away.

Always a sky, Rachel, always together.

that seems so upset to lost.

And I told Rachel, if you know anything, you need to say what happened?

Gossip gone around that there was a teenage party possible overdose.

Twitter, instagram, facebook. Things start to get ridiculously .

out of control of in each other. They plan. I'm not just for hours, but days, weeks, months.

Evil comes in our shape and size.

Teenagers tangled up in a murder mystery who was behind IT. I'm letter hold and this is deadline.

Tonight, Andrew, a canning with something wicked.

In the gentle rolling hills of northern west Virginia, in a sweet college town in the heart of cool country live, three teenage girls, their photos capture a moment time. They were smart, talented, lovely, everything a parent could hope for in a daughter. And so who could have guessed just by looking that some of them Carried a dark secret about a friend?

I have a sixteen year old daughter. He has not been home, has been went toward, I am cared to death.

These teams, a strange and .

hunting game theme .

of betrayal that would .

go beyond raw.

And at the center of IT all was a girl name, skylar David mary nie welcomed their only daughter style to the world back in nineteen ninety six. Tell me about the day he was born. Is that the greatest men of your life?

I wouldn't go that .

for first time I saw her.

First time I saw her. Yes.

I can say that was the greatest moment of my life. Yeah, there was instant love.

They live in star city, a small suburb of Morgantown, west Virginia, where dyve worked at walmart and mary at a medical office. Skylar was a world wind, a rampacious precocious tod ler who owned her parents hearts.

Hi, good.

This is beautiful.

SHE was reading way before he was supposed to do a math and stuff way before he was supposed to. So SHE, very intelligent little girl.

Thanks for me. Three, when skyler started nursery school, SHE made her first friend, Morgan Lawrence. Morgan was drawn right away, a skylar, to SHE kind of .

light up a room. Oh yeah, the giggle in the laugh.

The girl's families became good friends to Morgan's parents. Dave and shero say Morgan and skylar were like, sisters, what are your memories of skylar when when he was this high, he giggled all the time. I just filled our house at .

the biggest eyes. You just wanted to hugger.

They were good. Girls got good grades. Morgan dreamed of becoming a meteorologist. Skylar, a criminal lawyer. They also had a pact that they would always be there for one another.

and you would both be in each other. S wedding parties. Everyone has a sister to put in there what? And we had each other .

as freshmen at Morgan town's university high school. The two girls part a little with a new school came new friends. Classmate Daniel, however, says the bubbly skylar fit in right away.

Friends came first with her. He was always about hanging out with friends if she'd have worker school.

Soon skylar had two new bfs shala edy, who the nieces had known for years, and Rachel shelf, a striking red head with broadway de aspirations. IT wasn't long before they were calling themselves the three musketeers, and in pictures they looked the part.

They were literally together every second of every day. IT seemed like they hung g out all the time.

And like all teenage girls, they shared videos and photos with each other and online, giving us a glimpse into their world. Skyler and SHE la.

just having fun.

And of course, they occasionally got into trouble. But even then, there was for typical teenage things. David, mary weren't too concerned.

She's straight eys student who loves her parents. Did you sort of chock IT up to? Okay, we're not thrilled.

But she's a teenager exactly.

When summer rolled around after hers, soft, more year, skylar seemed happy. SHE had a job at Wendy, what SHE loved. On thursday, july 5， two thousand twelve, SHE came home after work and got ready for bed.

SHE put a room around. Her mom gave her a kiss and gave her hugged and said, I love your mom, turned to means and I love you, dad. And he went to the room.

The next day, dave planned a meat skylar in their apartment at lunch time. He was surprised that he wasn't there, a little worried. He called married.

I thought he was out with one of her other friends. I figured they went swimming or shopping.

Dave called her friends, including SHE, let no one had seen her. Next he went outside and found more cause for worry. A small bench was tuck near skylar's window, and the window screen was missing.

This time I call IT to other cell phone. I said, yeah, you're in trouble. You Better be called me right away. So all seller, about ten domes, I called murray again.

Mary told him to calm down. He said. Skylar was expected at work at four.

I said, we're not gonna worry. I'll call them about ten after four, give time, the clock y and everything, see if she's there.

But mary didn't get a chance to call Wendy.

They called us first, wants to know he was coming to work.

Was that a big moment for you? Yeah, a few minutes later, there was another big surprise.

A call from sha SHE said he had to tell me the truth. And I said, well, what truth? He said, well, we did. We snuck out last night.

Mary's heart felt skylar had done that once before, gone on a late night joy ride with Rachel and sha. That time they've been caught for being out after the town curfew. And now here was a worried chiller saying they've done IT again.

I said, where did you do? Where are? And SHE said that skylar insisted they drop her off at the end of the street so we wouldn't hear her sneaking back in.

Now that missing screen and bench outside colors window made sense. Skylar had put IT there to boost herself up so he could get back in, but I left them with a terrifying possibility.

My first instinct was someone abducted her from the end of the street to our house.

Dave called .

the police sixteen years old. The and we struck out over room last night, and he has not been seen. Sense our friends can get all over.

I can. What's your name?

Sky or niece?

The nieces world had fAllen in apart. Their only daughter had disappeared into the night. Now she'd been gone for nearly twenty four hours. Where was skylar .

coming up? Concern for skylar begins to .

grow feeling in my heart. Did something terrible has happened?

Piece of video tape is about to give police one giant clue. What can they clean from this?

SHE slowly walked down to a part. SHE gone the back seat.

Star city, west Virginia has just eighteen hundred residents. Only one stop light scale .

going missing was a tough poto swallow for the entire community.

Police officer Jessica coal bank caught the skyline ese case.

First impression was that could be a run away. There are kings run away all the time. IT wasn't .

long before officer coal bank got the video from the security cameras at the nieces building. Skyler s. Friend shell edy had said skylar was home around midnight.

So what was this car doing? Pulling up around twelve thirty A. M. Who was in IT daveneys watched, horrified as there on the tape out walked.

Skylar SHE slowly walked down to a car that was sit in her a wait north and SHE one a back seat. I can tell that and SHE drove away.

Police couldn't quite make out a license plate or tell the maker model schollers mom mary had .

a theory SHE made at home, knocked back in the window, then a second person or persons had parked behind the building, and he snuck out a second time.

But why, who was in the car and where did they go? The police did issue an Amber alert since IT looked like skylar left .

voluntarily. Once step video came out, SHE willingly got in this car. They're not going to come out and look .

for somebody driving around in a car.

Skyler friend, sla, came right over. Sh'll be home and I really, mr. I'd love her. I wonder back .

the next day he was SAT with mary on skylar's bed, both of them crying. Did he bring you comfort when .

shela would come by being scallowa s best friend?

IT didn't mean a little bit yeah knowing to talk partly ver behind .

marine chela h took to the streets together, posting flyers for skylar.

They would knock on the doors. And have you seen this room? And we keep shown a pictures to people.

Nobody was very, very worried about what had happened.

A scholar and crisis won was a close family friend of shiela and saw shela s distress first hand.

SHE was trying so hard to help them find anything, so hard to help them figure out what had happened.

The star city police are still looking for a missing sixteen year old. Dave made a plea for help on local new .

station W B O Y B.

By sunday night sky er had been gone the whole weekend her family, including her and Carol was heartsick .

I just had this horrible feeling in my heart that you know something terrible has happened and and IT wasn't like her to run away or disappear like he .

did mario tat night. He said, sound of wrong day, something bad.

wrong the community held a candle vigil. Sklar schoolkids came, including Rachel and shila.

They were crying, came up and help me marry. Just cry arose out.

The only think mary could say was, what can we do to help these girls? How can we help these girls?

Skyler s. Family friend Morgan Lawrence was upset too. He was a way at camp when he read on facebook that skylar was missing.

I worried for you, my gold time worry.

So was officer. Coal bank SHE was added non stop and come .

back to the office in the evenings, you know, watching the video.

getting facebook records. Colberg was swamped with tips from people saying they'd seen skylar from Morgan town to new york and even california, each citing was a dead end. At the same time, calving pulled stylish records.

What he found was ominous. Skylar wasn't using her cell phone or her A, T. M. card. Corbin now had serious doubts that skylar had run away.

usually run away. They take atoms with them. They especially SHE, had contacts and glasses. SHE didn't weather.

and then police got an important new lead in the case. There had been two bank robberies in the nearby town of black swilled. Both of them had gone down around the time skylar vanished.

I was working with other investigators on those bank .

robberies while looking into the robberies, roney gasses of the west Virginia state police was called into skylar's case. There had been a tip that somehow skylar had been at a party with the suspected bank robbers when something bad happened. Yeah.

what was the theory? There's just rumors, you know, gossip gone around that there was a teenage party and there was a possible over those. And people there were scared, so they hit the body.

IT seemed unlikely, skylar, and use heavy drugs.

IT was just a lot of tracking down rumors, tons and tons and tons of rumors.

all leading nowhere. By now, skyler had been gone more than a month gaskin s vow he would find her.

I don't like to make promises. I want to work. But knowing promise I made the day was we would never stop, never give up and trying to find out what happened sklar.

Their search for skylar had taken them across the united states. What they didn't know then was that the truth was right there in Morgan town at university high.

coming up twitter.

instagram and facebook, things start to get ridiculously out of control.

Whispers in the hallways with someone hiding something police are about to get a break.

That was in our whole moment. Finally, we have something to .

go on when deadline continues.

The first day of school, the fall of two thousand twelve, was heartbreaking. One of university high schools top students, skylar's, had disappeared during the summer. Classmates, genie ams.

starting school without her like that is probably one of the hardest through the whole thing, like scala was a go to person and he was just gone.

Skylar's friend Morgan Lawrence was dread roll call.

I didn't have any classrooms with her than .

god didn't to hear her name .

called is not the, you know, you can tell the teacher, we don't know if she's coming back SHE in some ways.

life seem Normal scylla's good friend SHE let eddy seen here in this video taken in the classroom back in school. So was B, F, F, Rachel shelf singing for friends in this video?

Rahel got the lead in .

the fall play, but everyone was worried about skylar and in school house ways and on social media rumors.

flu between twitter and station m and facebook. I just see things start to get ridiculously out of control.

Kids saying things from the scholar headed over toast, and things that the sky was in a different country.

Daniel, however, was in drama with Rachel and knew how close the three girls war. He wondered if Rachel and china might be helping cover something up for.

or there have been rumors going around, oh, Rachel and shelter, where she's hiding.

Daniel knew Rachel and shela were the last ones to see skylar. He wondered if they were protecting her or maybe protecting someone else. Either way, they had to know something.

They were probably a good three, four, five times where I told Rachel, if you know anything, you need to say what happened or where she's at.

Daniel wasn't alone. Writers daily berry and jeff fuller live in the Morgan town area and have written a book about skylar's case. They've spent hours coming through what kids were saying on social media.

The one thing that stood out to me is that people, teams, were tween chilling. Rachel had to know something.

We talk, say something. No, you know, tell us what, you know, the heat got turned up on the girls when the FBI showed up and started interviewing students.

I was only in interviewed once. I guess I was nervously because I was, I get to the FBI like they're serious. They asked me about Rachel cha. They seemed any different, and I was telling him they didn't seem different, but they were secluded to themselves more.

The Normal fall rituals like football and homecoming were punctuated with police visits to Rachel and shela kids say Rachel left play rehearsal al to meet with the FBI marine David ese, desperate to find their daughter, thought the police were wasting their time investigating the girls they knew so well.

very much to the police. And we ve feel alone, please. I said, you guys, her arrest and her twenty four, seven, the kids going through enough right now, leave her alone. He was like her daughter.

But investigators were convinced the two girls knew more than they were saying that fall, ronnie gkn interviewed each girl repeatedly. How was she's deer? In these meanings you would have with .

calm collect, but look at your right to face, right your eyes. He says .

Rachel seem distracted.

SHE would draw on the desk, play with the pencil just for non verbal views.

Book a lot. Their story never varied. They picked skylar up, drove around Morgan town, smoke a little pot and dropped off a few blocks from home.

IT was like a recording with these two.

In the meantime, the officers had begun to collect physical evidence, and IT didn't match up with the story the girls had been telling. SurveilLance video from a convenient store put the girl's car not having east, as they'd said, but having west toward black sfo. And the girls phone records from that night showed Rachel phone hanging off a cell tower in .

black slow that was in our hall moment. Finally, we have something to go on that's different from their story.

Now, even skylar's parents join the course of people trying to get the girls to talk.

I started posting on facebook things about karma. Carma will get you. You can hide. We were pushing, we were pushing the girls to get them to say what happened by .

late november. The pressure seem to to be taking its toll on Rachel. In an interview, SHE surprised police by changing her story and meaning for the first time that they did drive a black's fill that night. And that's where skyler told them to let her out of the car black film, where those bank robberies had happened. The next day, he had changed her story to say the same thing that must have been a big red flag for you.

absolutely.

At school, kids say Rachel was increasingly rattled.

Rachel seem distressed. SHE seemed like he was very upset over something. I mean, this was eating in her heart.

Rachel chef was about to crack.

Coming up. An emergency at home and an interview with police. What exactly was Rachel show of about to reveal?

We were speak less.

Christmas two thousand twelve came in, went for skylar nieces, parents, David mary IT had been six months since their daughter had disappeared. The holidays must have been very tough that year. Christmas time we .

didn't celebrate. no.

We didn't put up any tree. We didn't do any anything. Just another day. yeah.

Around that time, Rachel su and shelf dy stopped attending university high. There are few remaining friends told authors daily barry and jeff fuller that Rachel seemed agitated.

SHE was acting out, getting into more family altercations at home.

So the walls were closing in on Rachel. I have an issue with .

a sixteen year old daughter. Mine, we have take controller anymore.

And then on december twenty eighth, Rachel apparently snapped her upset mother called the police not .

to screaming, is running to the netherland od to be the phones.

And Rachel was taken to a mental health facility a few days later. Corporation, I gans got a big surprise. Rachel wanted to meet at her lawyers office. SHE had something he wanted to say, take us inside that attorneys office with Rachel, who was her demo. I remember .

her pulling up a waste ket next to her, she's afraid, going throw up. And then we started asking her to questions that we thought he would answer. Shaver, those was her party.

And I remember red SHE. Does her face cut really read? Clancy Edison said, we start there.

IT wasn't .

an accident, IT was a murder. And not only had Rachel and shiela killed skylar, they had planned IT for months, all the while looking and acting like the best of friends as shalan skylar doing this video. As part of the plan, Rachel and sheller settled on the night of july fifth as the ideal time kill skylar.

Earlier that day, ritual had obtained the travel from her father's resonance. They put IT in sales trunk. They brought the clean cloth, cleaning supplies and ordinary ritual chill have provided the kitchen naves.

They called skylar to say they were on their way over .

to the resonance. And there is .

skylar sneaking out in that grainy surveilLance video, the Carriers and inside our skyler, two best friends.

skylar gets in the car and they get up in.

and they drew for nearly an hour for miles and miles and dark, winding roads out past black sill.

They get to the scene. They parked the car, and they found an area where they could sit and talk. The scholar leaves to go back to the car. And then Rachel said on three.

according to gaskins, Rachel said he counted one, two, three, not three. The two girls began .

when her and chela started stabbing .

scholar from .

bad of my god. Nash's gaston .

says skylar .

fought hard to defend herself. Did Rachel indicate what skylar's last words were? Her final .

moments in that meeting.

SHE said, skull just said.

why? 那是 那 赵 锡山。

Rachel said the girls covered the body with dirt in branches through their bloody cloth in the trunk and left skylar there. Did Rachel express how he felt when the crime was over?

Ah I just remember her saying that this is something you wanted to get done before he went to church camp.

How did you feel when he said I had to .

get this done before church? Cam.

did you ask racal why? Why did you to do this?

He would not give us any specific details than they just don't like her. And then when I asked what you mean you didn't like her clarified SHE said all nothing, and we just didn't like her.

After telling police the story, Rachel let authorities down that lonely road past black film to a spt just across the pencil venia border. There they eventually found a few scattered human remains and send them to a lab for testing.

Imagine the pain and suffering and the fear. SHE went through being alone in that place with her two best friends, and he knew what was happy when he started .

to her authorities. Cap ato's confession secret, even from the kisses. While the investigation continued, the FBI told maria dave only that remains believed to be skylar had been found.

I put down prey. So lonely and so deserted and IT was a horrible thing to know that he had been there.

And then when do why? Two, three go. February of two thousand thirteen, just as they had says he was a little .

girl i'm already take with .

the knife ce is gathered with friends on skyler er's birthday this time and without her they quietly told the Lawrences their awful news. Did your heart just break for marian? Dave, my heart was slowly breaking the entire time.

I remember the first thing. I thought I was just like a surreal. I know she's not out there in the cold.

Ronnie gaskins had a confession from Rachel and SHE d LED. Into a body, but IT wasn't enough. Why wouldn't you arrest somebody right away who's confessed to killing someone?

SHE allied to us number towns before. So we had to say, well, who's to say is long again? So we had a corporate .

or statement. What's more, gaskins needed Rachel, so he didn't rest her. Instead, he was about to use Rachel to get shila .

coming up grieving or pretending cha seemed like he .

was so upset to have lost her best friend. SHE even asked me, how could someone do this?

Scholar was the truth. Catch up to shala edi when deadline continues.

corp. Oni goskin was on a mission to put two girls behind bars.

There was in one of where you could not get there fast enough.

Rachel shuff h had just can fast teaming up with shela edy to kill their friend skylar niece. Now he was CoOperating with police gases in his fellow investigators hatched a plan. Rachel would invite shiela to her house as hidden cameras rolled. SHE would try to get sha to incriminate herself.

We were close by and case something happened.

SHE had did come over. SHE treated this photo of herself and an uncomfortable looking Rachel with the caption finally got to see rage. But police didn't record anything to pinch a to the crime.

The girls did not disclosing things specific. They were just .

very casual. A few days later, the police went to she's house with a warrant.

We seized every kitchen knife. We could fn the the FBI seized shell's car, and they were able to find a presence of DNA in the trunk.

DNA in shea's trunk. If IT proved to be skyler, IT would be critical to gaskin s case, a direct link connecting the girls to skylar's death. They shift the sample after the lab and waited. Meanwhile, gaskins got a positive idea on the human remains, found out past black sfd IT was skylar the search for monogamy account?

Teenager sky verse is .

at university high school. Confirmation that skylar had been found dead was heartbreaking.

was done the stated IT was .

IT was crazy.

Shania called her .

friend china. As soon as he heard the awful news.

I was crying and he was crying.

There was SHE, a suspected murderer, crying tears for skylar.

And she's like, who do you think could have done this? Why would somebody do that to sky learn?

Shela also cried with her friend Chris swan, and .

once skyler s. Body was found, shela seemed like he was so upset to have lost her best friend. SHE couldn't believe that something like this would happen. SHE even asked me, how could someone do this to .

skylar and ler? Let everybody know how sad he was. SHE waited, things like worst day of my whole life, the pain is real and rest easy sklar. You'll always be my best friend.

I miss you more than you could ever know, but social media revealed two sides to shiela SHE could more in skylar, but on twitter and facebook, SHE and Rachel also seemed carefree. As the police continue their investigation, SHE la posed in photos at the prom. Rachel twisted, I need a memos, a or ten.

They were going about their lives even while the police believe the girls were stone cold killers. The locals would whisper in each other years and say how they still free. bloggers.

Coal barroso started following this case early on and was struck by Sheilas tweets, things like ain't no rest for the wicked. And incredibly, this apparent reference to that countdown to skylar's murder, we really did go on three unbelievable that he feels SHE so invincible to to tweet this publicly. And then finally, by mid April two thousand thirteen, oni gans got the one critical piece of evidence he needed confirmation that skylar's blood had been found in Sheilas trunk.

On top of the video surveilLance, the phone records racial statement. At that point, we felt confident we had the proper cause to make the arrest.

Now, authorities told skyler s. Parents the whole story. Their daughters, two best friends, had killed her .

to turn away. I think about .

IT every day. I think about the misery my child must have been, and i'm helpless. I can help her.

She's calling out to help me. You know? why? why? Why animal Scott.

they didn't care.

They just go out like a baga .

trash on may first two thousand thirteen and exchange for her CoOperation. Police Rachel shelf pleaded guilty to second degree murder. Within minutes, gases raced ed across Morgan town. This hard pounding .

lights in sn urn deserve sa was arrested .

and charged with first degree murder in the parking lot of the local cracker barrel restaurant where SHE and her mom, we're having .

lunch wheel was crown and SHE kept asking her mother, is, is everything i'll be okay? And her mother, na gans had .

promised skulker's parents he wouldn't quit until the case was solved.

IT felt good for once that he was coming with us.

The question of who had been answered, but people were haunted by an unanswered question skylar's last word, why?

Coming up.

I became caught up in something that I do not want to do.

The accused killers head to court and the motive for murder.

They planned that crime for days, weeks, months.

What could that be?

Sla ei was not about to give in without a fight. There he was, in september two thousand thirteen, a one black team in a crowd of accused men pleading not guilty to the kidnapping and murder of skylar niece. This was terrible news for skylar's parents.

I don't want us for a while here. The gress lies some details of all this that would tear me apart.

With a trial looming. The question on everyone's mind was why investigators wanted to know, too. And in the halls of university high, they got glimpses of a motive, saw snapshots of a trouble, three way friendship. Morgan Lawrence saw disturbing dynamic first hand.

I was not a huge end of rent shela.

As far back as freshman year, Morgan had worried that her friend style was heading into a play SHE might not belong. And SHE became close friends with Rachel, and shela more than especially didn't like cha SHE hung out .

with the wrong crowd. SHE had lots of friends that were twenty some years old. That's just a little strange.

Morgan says she'd watched uneasy as the three girls became inseparable. Skyler cousin kyle adored .

skylar and says .

he felt uneasy too.

always together by soft.

More year he saw changes in skylar, and IT seemed like about that time. He didn't have that same nice quality to her.

He was more sour.

I think, for people SHE started almost acting me that shall acted must be .

hard to see her changing.

It's difficult to watch IT in general. It's even hard to want to wrote, someone is closed, someone that you call your family.

students told reuters jeff fuller and daily berry that by midd soft more year, the three girl's relationship had begun to decorate. They've written about this in their book, the savage murder of .

skylar niece Rachel were dissing skylar when he wasn't around and putting her down. And that kind of things, that so kind of a two faced situation.

And students say that around this time, they started hearing Rachel and sha discuss the best way to kill someone. And Rachel friend fantasia iller recalls a chilling conversation.

Rattle was ranting to me how much he didn't like scala one day. Well, SHE said word forward, i'm pretty sure was, I wouldn't ind if he died at this point. Yeah.

which makes this cell phone video all the more haunting because IT was captured by skylar .

six months .

before he was killed. SHE ler as skylar .

and Rachel l, to choose .

best way to die .

way depends on winter.

Would you rather in the head .

shot there? No suffered .

drawing .

sufficing of the same thing.

an incredibly disturbing scene, friends say. In the months before skyler s. Death, SHE and shelf fought constantly late on july fifth, skylar tweed, this you doing blank like that is why I will never completely trust you later that night.

Skyler has seen here on that surveilling tape driving away from home for the last time. What were they fighting about? There is a possible answer.

Hallway whispers that Rachel and sha had developed a sexual relationship and that skylar new and threatened to help them. Did they kill her to keep their secret? In january two thousand and fourteen, David mary finally got the news. They've been hoping for a plea.

Al sheela edy, had you pleaded to the offensive murder in the first degree, the family charged in count three of the endangered .
