A 16-year-old female student at a Connecticut high school died Friday after she was attacked and stabbed inside the school's stairwell, authorities said at a press conference.
Maren Sanchez, a junior at Jonathan Law High School in Milford, was pronounced dead at Bridgeport Hospital despite attempts by teachers and emergency responders to save her life after the attack inside thew school, authorities said. A student at the school and local media reports indicate that Sanchez was attacked because she refused to go to the prom with the attacker later in the evening.
Police would not immediately confirm a motive in the attack and said the investigation is in its early stages.
"We'll get to the bottom of it, or how it happened or why it happened," Keith Mello, Milford police chief, said.
The suspect, also 16, whose name is being withheld because he's a minor, was subdued by teachers immediately after the attack and is in custody, authorities said. The victim and suspect appeared to be "friends" on Facebook.
The school in Milford was put on lockdown Friday morning and students were sent home after the 7:14 a.m. stabbing. Students and faculty received a text message from the school alerting them that the girl died prior to the press conference. The school will offer students counselors.
Police said that the attack was an isolated incident and no other students were in danger. The school's prom, scheduled for Friday night, was postponed to an as-yet undetermined date, a school official said.
Sanchez was an honor student and swim team manager who was heavily involved with community service, particularly causes like underage drinking and veterans' services, school officials said.[/quote]

Jesus christ WTF. Its only prom, its not the end of the fucking world.
Again with people being so passionate about this tradition.
How fucked in the head can you be to murder somebody because they don't want to go with you to an over the top, sweaty, cock-waving contest of a dance?
Oh wow I would have thought it was one guy stabbing another over a girl, but a girl getting stabbed for rejecting a guy? Jesus christ.

I'm being dragged to it this year by the missus.
Anyways. I can't imagine what was going through that kid's head when he decided to stab the poor girl.
Proms seem like something way overhyped and people try too hard to ask dates out to it and stuff. But then again we don't have proms here so there's that.

only someone without a girlfriend and almost no experience with girls would call their non-spouse significant other "the missus"...

Would a waifu count?
This was in the school right next to mine. Very tragic. I barley knew her, but a few of my good friends were friends with her.

prom is a sendoff from highschool into the real world essentially. its the last time you see a lot of people and it's just something good to remember. it's one of the few things that almost every person does and its something to look back on.
i was a raging weirdo back in high school and even i didn't hate prom
I didn't hate prom, I just hated the music they played. Still a fun time with friends.
Hell, I've been rejected then canceled on this year so far and I'm not ready to stab anyone...
What a piece of shit...time to ban knives you guys..
Edit:
Think of the children..

what
[QUOTE=katbug;44644559]what[/QUOTE]
Right?
It wouldn't make any sense to ban knives because people would still stab each other. :eng101:
The point is...
This dude is a massive piece of shit and as was said earlier, hopefully won't be given a light sentence just because he's a minor...
Surprise you guys...
American judicial system says fuck you to justice and gives him a slap on the wrist..
Just an educated guess. :eng101:

The knife is not at fault here. banning children from schools will stop children stabbing each other in schools.

It's why I'm still not sure if I should regret skipping out on prom.

I'm sure I didn't miss anything. The music would be too loud and my feet would hurt.
