Two Iowa teenagers have been charged with murdering a local Spanish teacher after police discovered incriminating social media posts.

Nohema Graber, 66, was found dead in a park in the city of Fairfield, several hours after being reported missing, authorities said.

Police say the suspects posted details of the killing, efforts to hide it and a possible motive to social media.

The teenagers, both 16, will be tried as adults for the murder...

...Early investigations suggested she had suffered "trauma to the head", the documents show. Ms Graber's body was found hidden under a tarpaulin, wheelbarrow and railway sleepers.

Authorities say a tip led them to social media exchanges and posts which showed that the two teenagers, Willard Noble Chaiden Miller and Jeremy Everett Goodale, had "specific details" about Ms Graber's disappearance and murder....

Wow. Life’s going to take a turn for the worst for them, or so one would hope.

Unusual in a town that hosts Mahesh Maharishi Yogi University.

I always thought it would be the French teacher not the Spanish teacher that was killed by students.

Just why. Did they not think ahead? They won’t see the light of day as it were until 2050 if ever

I suspect if you drug-tested the two...something would show up.

Both are tall for their age - 6-2 and 6-4

At that age, usually one is a dupe who gets talked into participating.

A senseless death - followed by an expenditure of a couple million dollars to house, feed, and guard them for decades.

not necessarily drugs nowadays.

It could very well be that these teens have no family structure, spent 85% of their awake hours playing fantasy video games..

perception is reality!

Reminded of murder of two Dartmouth College professors by a 16 yr old and a
17 yr old. This was in 2001.

“Parker (16 y.o.) pleaded guilty to second-degree murder in exchange for testifying against Tulloch, and was sentenced to 25 years, with possibility of parole after 16. Tulloch pleaded guilty to first-degree murder and received the mandatory sentence of life imprisonment without parole”
NBCBoston 2019:”Green said that her client (Parker) will remain in prison until his minimum release date in May 2024. He’s allowed to petition for a reduced sentence because he’s served two-thirds of the minimum time.

Tulloch’s serving a mandatory life sentence, which will be examined in December after the U.S. Supreme Court ruled against mandatory life sentences for minors.”

Modern day Leopold and Loeb? Or was there something other involved - a romantic relationship perhaps?

I remember that 2001 Dartmouth case very well.

I probably first read about it on Free Republic, but I do not have a specific recollection of that.

I suspect 90% of the FR Comments were demanding the death penalty!

“Of Transcendental Meditation (TM) fame?“

Yes. Seems like a nice, if slightly weird, town.

Parsons College. Home of student deferments for the sake of student deferments in the 60s. Soon lost accreditation. Then Kaput. Then sold to the ‘rus.
