A group of fifth-grade students were arrested last fall over an alleged plot to murder a fellow student after being overheard discussing their plans, according to a newly released police report.
Four students at the Legacy Traditional School in Surprise, Arizona, were accused of planning to fatally stab a fellow fifth grade student and forge a suicide note to make it appear self-inflicted, according to the police report. A parent alerted the school of the plot on Oct. 1, 2024, after their child overheard the group talking about it.
The students and their parents were instructed to come back to the school the following morning for the school's investigation, per the report.
Through the investigation, it was found that one of the accused students, a girl, was allegedly in a "relationship" with the victim, a boy, who had cheated on her, according to the report. The girl hated him and wanted him dead, the report said.
During a lunch on Oct. 1, 2024, the students were involved in a conversation on how to "end him," the report said. According to interviews with the suspects, the plan involved allegedly luring the boy to a bathroom and stabbing him in the stomach.
They would wear gloves so as not to leave behind fingerprints and forge a suicide note, the report said.

Did they use AI ?
“””I was 10 years old when I was in the 5th grade and still playing with Barbie Dolls. “””
I was talking into a fan to make a robot voice.
Cheated on her
In 5th grade talking to another girl is “cheating”
WT absolute F
Hope the kid learns to stay away from the girls and women. That crazy is whats in the pipeline thinking thats normal and manipulating the other boys to inflict her revenge on the kid.
“a girl, was allegedly in a “relationship” with the victim, a boy, who had cheated on her, “
In the 5th grade?
What species is this?
That sounds very traditional.
Rush hit the nail on the head about stuff like this years ago. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s7pur18_UK4
Worked much better with the metal fans.
Today’s plastic ones just aren’t up to the task.
I remember myself in 5th grade and I was totally innocent as far as worldly stuff, and I just wanted to have fun and be friends with everyone.
In 6th grade things became different because puberty, but the thought of killing someone and making it look like a suicide??
God help us!!
I was killing ants with a magnifying glass and learning Morse code.
Is this the result of kiddos that age being given unlimited access to “social media” and being told by those users on how to engage in bullying?
I bet we could get a substantial grant to research the reason for that difference.
“I was talking into a fan to make a robot voice.”
I knew kids who did that, it was always so funny.
good he found out now how psycho the girl is, and the other 3 too.
Many children today are taught human life is disposable and they’re taught that the value of human life is based on: No. 1 want; No. 2 Necessity; No. 3 convenience; No. 4 cost.
Love to them is as Tina Turner sung:
What’s love got to do, got to do with it?
What’s love but a second-hand emotion?
What’s love got to do, got to do with it?
This ping list is for the other articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list. Articles pinged to the Another Reason to Homeschool List will be given the keyword of ARTH. (If I remember. If I forget, please feel free to add it yourself)
The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.
Sounds like a really stupid plan. Something a 5th grader would come up with alright.
The authors are very careful not to reveal that the plotters were all girls. Were they all girls?
I’ve been listening to my 11-year old niece talk about relationship drama in 5th and 6th grade. To hear her tell it, the kids are trying to act like teens, but with even less impulse control, raging hormones and the examples of TV shows and movies.
Kids reach “sexual maturity” very young these days. My niece started her periods when she was 9.
