Hopes for her safe return soon turned to horror, as it was revealed 13 year old vivacious cheerleader Tristyn Bailey had been found murdered in the woods. Tragically Tristyn had been the victim of a sustained attack & was brutally stabbed 114 times .

Not only was it an incomprehensible crime due to the fact someone so innocent had had their life snatched from them at such a young age.

But also because it soon transpired her vicious killer was himself also just a youth .

14 year old Aiden Fucci was quickly fingered as suspect number one after his suspicious version of events of that fateful night didn’t quite add up .

And not to mention the inappropriate posts he had made about Tristyn’s disappearance on his Snapchat account, which raised huge red flags with everyone involved in the case.
