Distractify is a registered trademark. Not just the 2 accussed. I guess we all cant like everyone. Kirsten, the apple of the eye, soon began to make waves at school. People have been wondering about his wife. Youre not now Bullying a dead girl, makes you worse than her, you will be the one to Answer for it, not her, she already has, Bernadette sure isnt any Angel shes a Cold Blooded Killer, dont care what her reasons are, she is the Bully, and Kirsten is the Victim. Tori spelling who actually played Kristen Costas was so incredibly unlikable on screen that she almost felt as though she deserved what she got. She is Crazy obviously, has enough problems and has to deal with murdering Kirsten and that doesnt help. She looked like a nice person that had a good life ahead of her. I bet she finally became an outcast fro supporting Bernadette. Maybe I made a mistake somewhere in the story (not sure youre mostly just saying I was not being honest what is that about?). I thought Kirsten was a very pretty little thing. She called Bernadette on her bizarre behavior that night, and if Bernadette would of left Kirsten alone, it would of never reached that Point, and Kirsten would still be alive maybe even today. Bernadette was homely; Kirsten was pretty. Kirstens friends arent either (not one bit). That part of LPs life is over with I guess. I am shocked to even read that some people think this 15 year old girl deserved to die because she could be a little snobby at school, I personally would prefer my children to be friends at school with a snobby girl than a cold blooded killer! Kirsten May of been just like that, I couldnt tell you thats true. 15-year-old Kirsten Costas was ruthlessly murdered on June 23, 1984, by one of her schoolmates. Couldnt get the smell out of car for weeks. I have to laugh with this being 2021 and the person with the most judgment has the name of Karen. Bernadette also idolized Kirsten and her clique, while being severely unhappy with the state of her family and home. Real class comes from decent human beings who have respect for others, and treating others the way that they want to be treated. It was a fictional depiction loosely based on Kirsten and Bernadette. Nevertheless Kirsten will never be with us again, and there was no sense in murder (premeditated ) or not, it still happened. Guys can be, girls are Worse. Yes listen said something to Bernadette, not to her directly, about her ski equipment. There are speculations that Bernadette has changed her name to Jeannette Tomanka. We had our own group, and we didnt really talk much to them, (other than hello) Some of those kids there that were misfits, hate to tell you, some of them werent Angels They dressed rough and acted (Bad) and cussed. She was sentenced to a maximum of nine years in a juvenile prison in April 1985. Can you give examples of Kirsten bullying Bernadette? Joy, why dont you stick to writing under one name instead of creating different aliases? I dont see how Kirsten was worse than any teenage girl. LP even if she doesnt get around to much to see people, Im sure theres a purpose in her life to. Im not sure shes really sick, I just hear she is, and doesnt leave her home hardly. Both girls attended Miramonte High School in Orinda, California. You all sound a bit like the people you are gossiping about. Her drive for perfection makes her seek out the friendship of Kelly Locke, a rich and pretty girl. There have been several changes in Orinda since Bernadettes arrest. I also was in a school where most others came from two income families and most of the parents were accountants, lawyers or doctors. I didnt know her, but what teen girl isnt sassy and smart aleck, but no reason to kill them, they grow out of it eventually. Sounds like her parents Shouldve did some actual parenting and taught her how to have respect for other people. However, all of this is unconfirmed. Others are not so lucky. For one, some of Heather Cranes former classmates have started speaking to Heather again. I guess that makes their daughter better than anybody elses. Plenty of facts support that view. Real class comes from decent human beings who have respect for others. On top of this, her house was a bit dilapidated. Bernadette really should have left her alone. There are more murders in american continent than in Europe and its not in the time of war. You have no one to blame but yourselves for being unnattractive, fat, disliked, broke loserswhatever your issues are. Same for Karen Severson and Laura Doyle theyre cold blooded killers to, Missy was Kirstens age, this happened not long after Kirsten was Murdered. This Virus is killing all the World over, esp. Missy was Described as a Bully and Very Mean also. Star!! they all were, taking a life is unacceptable and inexcusable. We lived it and lived through it, so its time to move on. We all moved on, every time we rehash this, it just brings up the past to that very day. So Miramonte was no worse with snobs than any school. Sticking up for a Murderer youre Pathetic. Shes the Victim. On the afternoon of the third day of the trial, Judge Edward Merill found Bernadette Protti guilty of second-degree murder. Protti didnt get a short sentence because she claimed to have been picked on. I never understood why Bernadette killed Kirsten. Thats so hot, the girl says, and heads home. She was released the following year. They still do Bernadette and always will, so she has to look over her head every second. I do believe she was real nice to those she did like and her friends. from what I have read on different blogs from kids that actually went to school with both these girls they have said that this movie did not accurately portray either one of the girls and thats very frustrating for people who watch the movie and find themselves empathizing with the wrong person. Player, 2004. Shes grown up a lot and isnt the same teen girl she use to be. As Angela lifts her bag, she looks back to her mother and gives her a classic "Why did you do that, mom?" In another one of your comments your wrote Well said Sarah. Youre talking about Tori Spelling in a movie being a minor bully not Kirsten whom you know next to nothing about. The teen girl died in a fire at 6 a.m. Sunday morning in the Orinda home where she lived that is now the site of a growing memorial. Elaine, who was studying the Bible, set her kitchen timer and resumed reading. The things that got me mad was it hurt and I couldnt change like looks or money or popularity or things," Protti added later on. Several on the site say Kirsten was Sweet Cute and Funny. I mean, we dont have a lot of money and we cant afford a lot of nice ski stuff and I just had this really crummy pair of skis and some boots, but, you know, I was having fun anyway.

I dont think they meant any harm at all, and as for the prank calls, they were probaly only fooling around, Nancy would take it all wrong, and say things back thinking it was a personal attack my standpoint. Once Kirsten was dropped off, a girl got off the Pinto, stabbed her, and fled. According to Bustle, the Costas family relocated to Hawaii in the aftermath of the tragedy. First, an assumedly innocent girl murdering her schoolmate got people by surprise. I do believe she didnt like outcasts like Nancy and Joanna there. If Bernadette killed Kirsten because she was bullied by her, why didnt she give examples at her trial, which would have strengthened her case? Yes Kirsten May of been Snooty, but she was also adorable to those who knew her. i remember always thinking that Bs case would had been much different today. She never had words with Kirsten, just said Kirsten hardly talked to her, maybe once or twice in her entire life. See production, box office & company info, A Woman Scorned: The Betty Broderick Story. Nope! So start the story there. She told them that she was with a friend and she had gotten weird on her. You have no idea what you are talking about with Columbine. How tragic she was murdered over basically nothing. Everyone was shocked when a sixteen-year-old girl was convicted of second-degree murder in the stabbing of a classmate. It stayed with me for many years, not as bad as it did, but it did for a long time. Smelled so bad. She didnt like their ways mostly. Until something happens. Most of the Bobbies were Snooty.

Kirsten was in the class of 1986, Everyone knew the killer had been apprehended, but no one knew who it was. Most people would find that bizarre and off-putting and would certainly not deserve to be killed over it. I wasnt Popular and Kirsten liked me and was nice to me. Rupaul and Sarah, Bernadette has friends and fit in. Teenagers killed each other for being bullied or cause they are lesbian? She was also a very good student who did well academically in school. I didnt know Kirsten very well. The judgemental insecurities started there for Bernadette and everyone else that was raised in those conditions. She may have tried to point the blame towards Nancy and Joanna but it backfired on her, Joanna comes to Reunions, as Bernadette cant cause it will never ever be forgotten. Students at Miramonte High School in Orinda, whose social acceptance Bernadette Protti craved, said yesterday she should be kept in prison for a long time. There were more than just Joanna that were singled out at Miramonte, I read other stuff there were quite a few that felt like they werent socially accepted. None of those Orinda kids are even around from that time frame, as some of them are dead. Bernadette will loose it again if she lost it once. Bunch of fg liars.

I got cut off before I had a chance to say anything else. She did have money, dont let that other Mats tell you any different. In your dreams Bernadette was better looking! Or going by the Movie portrayed, Deadly Women had Kirsten as a down to Earth Girl who loved all. Bernadette had devised an ingenious plan to win over Kirsten. Even Bernadette was to I bet. Another lesson is parents should not have kids too late in life.
