A 16-year-old girl was so outraged after a
Facebook dispute that she murdered her
best friend by stabbing her in the back 65
times.
Erandy Elizabeth Gutierrez was furious after
she received messages that alerted her to the
fact that her friend had uploaded naked
pictures of the pair to the social network.
She told her friend, Anel Baez, also 16, that
she would be lucky to survive until the end of
the year.
'It may seem that I am very calm, but in my
head I have killed you at least three times,'
Gutierrez wrote to Baez via Twitter.
Laughing off Gutierrez's threat that she would
'bury' her 'before the end of the year', the
unwitting Baez invited her friend to her home
in Guamuchil, Mexico to patch things up.
According to local police, Gutierrez asked to
use the bathroom but instead went into the
kitchen where she found the knife she used to
stab her friend over 60 times.
A police spokesman explained that after the
murder Gutierrez tried to clean the blood from
her clothes and the weapon but was
unsuccessful.
Gutierrez tried to hide her role in the murder
after fleeing the scene and even pretended to
grieve alongside her other friends.
But following police investigations she was
eventually arrested at her best friend's funeral
– keeping the sinister promise she made to see
her buried before the end of the year.
