The brothers accused of strangling Autumn Pasquale may have been implicated after they exchanged a chilling message on Facebook hours after she was murdered.
Justin, 15, and Dante Robinson, 17, are accused of killing the 12-year-old for her BMX bike parts. Their mother turned them in after she allegedly saw a message Justin wrote to his older brother simply saying 'Autumn'.
Police believe the teens lured 12-year-old 'tomboy' Autumn Pasquale to their home on Saturday night under the pretense of trading bike parts and killed her.
An autopsy performed yesterday concluded she had died from 'blunt force trauma, consistent with strangulation'. She was also beaten. There was no evidence of sexual assault.
Gloucester County Prosecutor Sean Dalton said the boys may have wanted parts from Autumn’s bike. They turned themselves in on Tuesday.
The boys have been charged with murder, conspiracy to commit murder, disposing of a body, tampering with evidence and theft. Justin was also charged with luring. Justin also wrote on his Facebook wall 'Might be moving', followed by a sad face and 'liked' the page set up to find her, despite allegedly knowing she was already dead.
Justin is a student at Clayton High School, while Dante is a student at Bankbridge Regional School in Gloucester County, a school for students with behavioral and developmental disabilities.
Tragic end: Autumn Pasquale's body was recovered late Monday night from a recycling bin
On Sunday night, while people from all over the area were searching for Autumn, Justin joined the 17,000 people on Facebook who liked the FIND AUTUMN PASQUALE page, according to Philly.com.
A break in the case came when the teens' mother alerted investigators to a Facebook post on one of her son's accounts, though it is not clear which son and what the post actually said.

2 of obama’s sons!
See how many news stories mention the fact that the killers are black youth.
In the Trayvon Martin case, the liberals hyperventilated about the fact that Trayvon was black, and Zimmerman was not. I wonder if the media and liberals will emphasize that black boys killed a white girl.
I also wonder if, any mention will be made that these boys are apparently feral youth, who kill without any remorse, over a bicycle. Since the killers are of an officially recognized grievance group, I would guess that no mention will be made of that either.
how terribly sad for the family of the murder victim, and how tragic for the mother of the 2 teens who turned in her sons to the authorities. Since that day in the Garden of Eden when Cain killed Abel and then tried to hide from God, the stain of murder has been on our human race.
Prayers lifted for Autumn’s family and friends, and for the mother of the 2 teens. Pray that God will open the eyes/hearts/souls of the 2 teens and they will acknowledge their crime and commit their lives to God while they serve life sentences. So very, very sad.
And all over a bicycle...
Liberals will excuse their actions on the basis that they did the right thing by recycling the girl’s body. /s

Did you post this to Chat or News?
Just askin’.
I wish there was some way to teach stupid people: You are stupid and impulsive. You will not get away with murder. People like you who kill will be caught within the week. Remember that stupid guy who killed that cop/girl/family? He was caught the next day. You are just like him.
On Fox they said the kids post was something like “I may have to move soon”
At least the mother did the right thing! I’m not sure the kids live with her, but apparently she monitors their posts.
These boys were friends of Autumn’s brother, which is why they were able to get her into the house (she knew them and trusted them). Autumn’s brother posted that the police were bringing in dogs to search for her body, and one of the creeps even replied to his post, saying something like “Dogs!”
I don’t know if the dogs found her in the dumpster, or if it was human searchers.
In any case, these are feral children and I am grateful at least that their mother (who appears not to be involved in their lives at this point) was watching them.
Too bad we cannot execute little sociopaths like them.
Or put them in prison for life without parole.
It probably save a life somewhere in the future if we could...
And just think - there are FReepers who think their RKBA should be returned to them as soon as they are out of prison...
Yes, they can be put away for life without parole. The Supreme Court barred MANDATORY life without parole for juveniles but a judge may consider it and impose it. If you think it won’t be done because it’s NJ, the Zarate brothers were younger than the Robinson brothers when they killed their neighbor Jennifer Parks, and they both got life sentences with no parole eligibilty for 76 years.
And watch, the mom will get a book deal , and a Lifetime movie, and she'll be able to keep all the $$$

If they aren't ready to be trusted with their Constitutional rights, they aren't ready to be let out of prison.
