But I do know that two families had to move out of town because the girls wore all black and kept to them selves..

A lot of murder cases they get s light sentence or aquitted, but they also get harassed by the public and media so they dont get off all the way, the media torments them. The boys at Miramonte liked Bernadettes childhood friend and Kirsten, none were interested in Bernadette. I hear she was Caddy and Stuck up, I dont even know if thats true, but she wasnt a Bully. I didnt know her, but what teen girl isnt sassy and smart aleck, but no reason to kill them, they grow out of it eventually.

The Costases raised two children: Kirsten and her younger brother, Peter. I am really stunned that she only spent 8 years in jail. Word around town was that K was stabbed 18 times. But who among her friends - or should we say frenemies - would do just about anything - even kill - for a taste of Stacey's popularity?

Kirsten had an Engaging type Personality, that Movie was off, and (Pro Bernadette). Youre not now Bullying a dead girl, makes you worse than her, you will be the one to Answer for it, not her, she already has, Bernadette sure isnt any Angel shes a Cold Blooded Killer, dont care what her reasons are, she is the Bully, and Kirsten is the Victim. If she was mad, she should of just beat the crap out of Kirsten, not kill her. If Bernadette was so Sweet, why did she watch 2 girls take the blame? Even before I read about the real case, I thought the movie blamed the victim way too much. After being set free, Bernadette went through the legal process of changing her name to Jeannette Butler. I know a gal who knew someone who knew Kirsten. Kirstens friends dont sit and discuss Morbid depressing stuff to start with. As for the Shoes one time comment. You dont know whether or not Kirsten had to go without anything.
