    Matthew Silliman Murdered By Facebook Friends

    This happened in my area recently. It freaks me out. The murderers are on his Facebook friends list. The terror he must have felt.


    Four North Carolina teenagers charged with killing a friend read him his future from tarot cards before he was beaten with a hammer and suffocated with duct tape, according to police search warrants.
    The warrants provide the first public details of the investigation since police found the body of Matthew Silliman, 18, on Dec. 3 in a plastic bag in a Wake County home, The News & Observer of Raleigh reported Thursday.
    Four friends of the Eagle Scout - Drew Shaw, 16, Ryan Hare, 18, and Aadil Khan, 17, of Apex and Allegra Dahlquist, 17, of Cary - each face one count each of murder. Hare and Shaw are also charged with one count of conspiracy to commit murder.
    Defense attorney Joe Cheshire said Dahlquist is talking to investigators and is remorseful. Cheshire said his client has admitted to participating in Silliman's death.
    "She's in adult jail. Her whole world is gone. Emotionally, she's a little girl who rode horses and helped with a pet-sitting service. She's not a bad person," Cheshire said.
    The warrants unsealed late Wednesday also said investigators seized "medications commonly used for animals to plan the murder and read the deceased his fortune using tarot cards just prior to his death."
    They also took bottles of the tranquilizer diazepam from the mobile home.
    The warrants didn't specify a motive.
    The warrants said two suspects confessed and implicated the others, although the documents did not identify the suspects by name. The newspaper reported lawyers and parents of the other suspects didn't want to speak or couldn't be reached.
    Dahlquist's parents own the mobile home where the body was found and have another home in Cary.
    Just another unsympathetic child from hell.

    I wonder if she is really remorseful or just sorry that she got caught. They are certainly old enough to know better.

    I have a strong feeling that she is the one that lured him there. You know she had the Tarot cards. How many teenage guys own Tarot cards?

    Yeah well typical for a defense lawyer...but there are some hags on the Bettie Page thread I want on my jury. Bettie just went after old people and used knives though instead of friends with hammers.

    seriously....how tragic is this? neat friends

    It reminds me of the West Memphis Three. Stupid kids get bored & kill some other kids for kicks. Horrifying.

    That's debatable. Not that I'm going to debate it here.

    You think people said that about the car and the telephone when they were invented? We don't get our news from the bible anymore, you know?

    Granted, these websites make losers out of youth who spent too much time on them.

    Everything is trouble without moderation.

    If these kids were as dedicated to religion as they were to myspace they would be killing people behind abortion clinics.

    Yeah, I have to agree with deathy, moderation is key. The social networking sites are now just another tool for people to harass others. I know that myspace is being monitored for gang activity. I thought facebook skewed a little older.

    They are finally putting these people on trial. I hate plea deals. This whole case makes me want to vomit.

    The car? How many folks have died from that invention. Interesting analogy and I think of the number of folks supposed to be killed by combining telephones with automobiles. just saying...
