A 16-year-old boy was lured to his death following an argument 'over a girl,' in what authorities are calling a calculated and deadly plot.
South Carolina teenager Trey Dean Wright was found shot to death on June 24.
Nine teenagers, including the victim's girlfriend have been arrested following the savage attack.
Deputies discovered Wright lying in the middle of First Neck Road near Johnsonville - about 45 miles from Myrtle Beach, suffering from multiple gunshot wounds Fox New reports.
The teen later died at the hospital and in a chilling twist, authorities revealed the murder was caught on video.
'This was an altercation between two people,' Sheriff TJ Joye said, as reported by WBTW News.
'It’s not like I’m just going to go to Johnsonville and shoot somebody,' he added. 'They had issues with each other and it was over a female.'
Just one day after the shooting, Devan Scott Raper, 19, was taken into custody by the Florence County Sheriff’s Office, accused of firing the fatal shots after an argument turned deadly.

Indeed.
Correct. Instant world wide news has caused this perception.
Why does every last one of them involved in this look inbred? Time for some more lifeguards at the gene pool?
Your journalistic standards are dated.
The murder rate was much higher in the 1980’s than it is today.
Back then I knew a couple people that were murdered and my roommate at baseball camp hacked a random kid up with an axe a couple weeks after camp concluded.
I’d speculate we had that back in the 80s but just heard about the cases due to lack of information.
And weapons were clearly visible in student parking lots. Every truck had rifles or shotguns stowed on racks in the back window.
Nobody was shot. Plinking after school. Hunting on weekends.
Maybe. Those Academy kids had no class then, I’d say.
From Copilot:
“The surname “Raper” is of English origin, derived from the occupational name for a rope maker, and has historical roots in Yorkshire and Durham.”
Meth.
LOL!
You can speculate all ya want. This isn’t even the same country as it was in the 80s. Time to reboot!
I went to high school with a girl whose last name was Rape.
“I was a rural teenager in the 70’s and we ALL had access to guns, knives, etc. for hunting after school and before evening chores and supper.
Never in our wildest DREAMS would it of occurred to ANY of us to turn those weapons on one another!
Got a beef with someone? Boyfriend cheating on you with the Head Cheerleader? You duke it out, bare-handed, behind the dumpsters or under the bleachers. ;)”

Ditto for the 50’s too.
We all had access to guns, and even took them to school if going to spend the night with a friend, and were going to go hunting after school.
We are now living in a post Christian era. Back in the 50’s most every kid went to Sunday School/church, or at the very least knew what a Bible was. Not so much now. And, it’s only going to get worse.

Cheese and rice......
“It seems the victim was a public school football player...”
Once you go Public, you never go back.
Who in The Absolute Frack thinks they’re going to get away with something like this?
One would be hard pressed to get a three digit IQ out of that entire group.
