Persistence wears out resistance, or at least that's what protesters say.

Authorities said Mills was under the influence of drugs when they found her.

It's a move that ended up hurting his case.

They put a log on top of his body and jumped up on it several times until Roberts was dead. The teenagers said they murdered the man because they were bored.

That, according to defense attorneys, was the straw that broke the camel's back.

Still, police issued a warning this morning.

After the homicide, the teens snapped photos of the body with a cell phone camera, they took friends into the woods to see the body and the teens even considered getting tattoos to show that they had participated in a murder.

Freund is facing aggravated stalking charges for a series of phone calls he made to young children while their parents were not home.

Many fear it is the work of a serial killer.
