    A high school love triangle apparently sparked a stabbing inside a Michigan classroom Wednesday that left a 16-year-old straight A student dead and a 17-year-old classmate in custody and facing a murder charge, police said.

    The two girls had once been friends but apparently had a falling out over dating the same boy, police said.

    The violent confrontation occurred about 8:30 a.m. at Fitzgerald High School in Warren, Michigan, a suburb of Detroit, when the older student pulled out a kitchen steak knife and stabbed the victim twice in the chest, Warren Police Commissioner Bill Dwyer said during a press conference.

    "Truly a tragedy on both sides ? the suspect and the victim," Dwyer said. "Two lives ruined."



    The victim was taken to St. John Macomb-Oakland Hospital in Warren, where she died at 9:24 a.m., he said. She was identified as Danyna Gibson by Fitzgerald Public Schools Superintendent Laurie Fournier.

    The suspect's name was not released.

    "It's possible that both the victim and the suspect had a relationship with the male student," Dwyer said.

    The incident occurred shortly after school began Wednesday, Dwyer said. He said that 20 to 30 other students and their teacher were in the classroom when the 17-year-old honor student pulled out a steak knife and attacked Danyna.

    "They didn't see it coming. It happened very quickly," Dwyer said.


    There are no metal detectors at the school, Dwyer noted.

    A school resource officer was immediately rushed to the classroom upon hearing screams and performed cardiopulmonary resuscitation on the victim until paramedics arrived, Dwyer said.

    The suspect stayed at the scene and was escorted to the principal's office, where she was taken into custody without incident, Dwyer said. The knife, which police believe the suspect brought from home, was recovered, he said.

    "I can only say that the victim and the suspect knew each other and the male student knew both of the suspect and the victim and that may have been one of the reasons why this occurred," Dwyer said.

    He said the male student, who is 16 or 17 years old, has been interviewed by police and is cooperating in the investigation.

    No other students were injured in the deadly altercation.

    "All parties involved are straight-A students and neither has been involved in any trouble at all," Dwyer said.

    He said the suspect was taken to the Warren Police Department for questioning.

    "She did make some admissions," said Dwyer, who declined to elaborate. "We will be asking for a murder warrant."

    He said it will be up to the Macomb County District Attorney's Office to decide whether to charge the suspect with murder.

    Dwyer said investigators are also reviewing text messages exchanged between the victim and her suspected killer but he did not disclose the contents of the messages.

    Investigators were also reviewing social media posts but have yet to find anything to suggest something violent was brewing, he said.


    "There was no type of pre-warning or advanced information that would put us on alert that this was possibly planned. We had no information whatsoever," Dwyer said.

    Dwyer described Danyna as an outgoing student who was a member of the school's cross country team, robotics club, color guard, marching band, National Honors Society, student council and an organization called A Generation of Promise.


    Grief counseling was being provided for students, particularly those who witnessed the stabbing, said Superintendent Fournier. She said all classes at the school were canceled for the remainder of Wednesday and that the school will be closed on Thursday. She said a vigil for Danyna will be held at 1 p.m. Thursday on the high school football field.

    "Our hearts and prayers go out to the student's family and we offer our deepest sympathy," Fournier said in a statement posted on the school district's website. "We are working very closely with the police department on this matter as well as conducting an internal school review of the incident which will review all our current safety procedures and protocols."


    This *might* be Danyna but it's totally locked down so it's hard to tell

A year or two and that motherfucker wouldn't even be but a memory, and your stupid ass had to go and kill a girl over him? Fuck you, bitch. You done ruining your life yet? Or do you want to get some more stupid shit out of the way now, too?

    She's a sociopath. Lock her up until she's 55...otherwise who knows what else she would do.

    It shouldn't be legal to sentence a juvenile to live without the possibility of parole. What kind of society throws a kid away like that?
    You are talking to a woman who has laughed in the face of death, sneered at doom and chuckled at catastrophe.

    Yes, that was what prompted my comment. She made the plea so she would be eligible for parole, but I don't think it should be legal to ever sentence a juvenile to life without parole. I'm not saying they should necessarily BE paroled, some of them might have to be kept behind bars for life - but their cases should be regularly reviewed.

    Michigan student who fatally stabbed classmate gets 27 years

    https://nypost.com/2020/09/17/michig...gets-27-years/

    A Michigan woman who fatally stabbed her high school rival in a dispute over her ex-boyfriend was sentenced this week to at least 27 years in prison.

    Tanaya Lewis, 19, pleaded no contest last month to first-degree premeditated murder in the September 2018 death of her 16-year-old classmate, Danyna Gibson, whom investigators said was stabbed with a steak knife inside a classroom at Fitzgerald High School in Warren, the Detroit Free Press reports.

    “If could take it back, I would,” Lewis said during Wednesday’s hearing. “I accept the punishment … and I know no amount of apologies will take it back … and I’m so, so sorry. I just hope one day, you’ll be [able to] forgive me.”

    Lewis, who was then 17, said she still has nightmares about attacking Gibson – a straight-A student — with a kitchen knife that she brought to school and stabbed her several times in front of other students and a teacher, the newspaper reports.

    Lewis, who will be eligible for parole after 25 years due to credit for time served, could have received a maximum sentence of 40 to 60 years if a plea deal hadn’t been reached between her attorney and a judge. If she had been convicted as an adult, she would have received life without parole, the Macomb Daily reports.

    Danyna’s aunt, Christina Ford, read a statement via video on behalf of the teen’s mother, who said there’s “really no words” to explain the pain caused by losing a child, especially in such a violent way.

    “I mourn the loss of my baby every day,” the statement read. “Times does not heal. It is more of a punishment because the more time that passes the more I realize I will never see my baby again.”

    Gibson’s family is unable to make sense of or forgive Lewis for the slaying, Ford said.

    “You took a life that was so beautiful,” her statement on behalf of Gibson’s family continued. “All I ask is that the Lord have mercy on your soul.”

    Danyna wanted to become a computer engineer and was already learning how to build robots, her father said.

    “I feel like I was robbed by the system,” Preston Gibson said. “I feel like I was robbed by her mother and I feel like I was robbed by a teenager. Although my baby’s not here, I’m still paying child support, my baby’s dead and I don’t get no justice for it. This is how I feel. Everybody who played a part in her death … f— you all.”
