Two Virginia Tech students have been arrested and charged following the disappearance and murder of 13-year-old Nicole Madison Lovell, whose body was found in North Carolina on Saturday, according to the Associated Press. “But we didn’t know nothing about it until she came up missing, unfortunately”, she said. She said that the teenager had been bullied in school because of her looks and that she was ashamed of her surgery scars pertaining to a liver condition which almost saw her death prior to a liver transplant when she was five years old.
Police said one of the suspects is a former Howard County high school track star from Columbia. Chris Heydrick, who competed against Eisenhauer in high school, told The Baltimore Sun that Eisenhauer was “cocky” but “the dude was mentally tough”.
She said Nicole was bullied on social media and at school, particularly about her appearance.
“This has been an extremely fast investigation … and we still have a great deal to do as there are multiple interviews to conduct and evidence to collected and analyzed as we reconstruct the timeline of events leading up to Nicole’s tragic death”, Wilson said.
Lovell’s disappearance on January 27 sparked a massive search, and officials said that because she had undergone a liver transplant as a young child, she required daily medication.
“God got her through all that, and she fought through all that, and he took her life”, Weeks said.
Lovell was described as “an awesome little girl” who had a tough life.
Davy Draper, a family friend, told the Associated Press Nicole was an energetic and outspoken girl who got along with everyone. Drake said she could not confirm that because of privacy laws, but she said the county’s schools have anti-bullying programs.
