I'm Sydney Sumner. Two Florida teens were indicted Friday in connection with the death of danica Troy, a 14 year old pace girl found murdered earlier this month. Gabriel Williams, 16, and Kamari Blevins, 14, are facing first degree premeditated murder charges for the death of Danica Troy, 14, who had been shot multiple times.
Law Enforcement Reporter
Deputies in Pace responded to a dead body call off of Kimberly road. They developed two suspects, one a 14 year old boy and another one a 16 year old boy. The 16 year old boy, Gabriel Williams stole his mother's handgun and shot Danica. Troy Kamari Blevins is the 14 year old. They're being held on first degree premeditated murder charges. And here's where it even gets worse. It's bad enough you kill a 14 year old. You're 14, you're 16, shoot her multiple times, then they set her on fire.
Sydney Sumner
Santa Rosa County Sheriff Bob Johnson says the defendants lured Danica to a wooded area, shot her, doused her body with gasoline and set her on fire.
Detective / Investigator
We do know that she had a Crush on the 16 year old boy and we believe that's why she went out into the woods with them. She had no idea she was going to be murdered. Obviously.
Sydney Sumner
Danica's mother reported her missing after the teen vanished with her scooter. While while she had been reported as a runaway on December 1, her burned body was discovered in Pace the following day, a witness reportedly claims. Levin said the initial plan was to shoot Danica once, but Gabriel continued to shoot. They then burned Danica's body and left the area. Investigators are still trying to determine the motive behind the killing, unconvinced that the shooting stemmed from a fight over social media where Danica called one of the suspects a worthless gangbanger.
Detective / Investigator
I mean, if you call somebody a name in 8th grade, how many of name calling fights end up with somebody being shot and burned to death? It just doesn't add up to me. There was something else going on and we don't know what that is. My detectives interviewed them both and they stuck with the story of, yeah, they got called a name, so that's why they killed her.

An arraignment for both defendants is scheduled for January 8th. A Reserve Police officer and his wife have been arrested and charged with subjecting their biological and foster children to cruel and unusual punishment. Matthew and Cassandra Boatwright, 34 and 32, have each been charged with six counts of second degree child abuse, four counts of strangulation and two counts of domestic violence. Matthew Boatwright faces an additional domestic violence charge along with two counts of assault with the weapon and one count of felony firearm. Boatwright was immediately relieved of his duties by the Quincy Police Department, where he served as a reserve officer. Cassandra Boatwright was also put on leave from her job as a Quincy Schools bus driver. Seven children were involved, two of them foster placements, one under Matthew Boatwright's guardianship and the remaining four, the couple's biological or stepchildren. All seven between the ages of seven and 15 have been taken into state custody. According to a probable cause statement. The children told investigators they were forced to drink dish soap mixed with water. They were hit with a leather belt and a board as punishment, and they were frequently handcuffed behind their backs and forced to sit for long stretches of time. Four of the children said both parents choked them. Two of the foster children reported that Matthew Boatwright lifted one of them by his neck and pinned him to a bathroom wall while pointing a gun at his head. He also pointed the gun at several young foster children during the same incident. Investigators found three unsecured and unregistered guns at the Boatwright residence, along with a board, belt and handcuffs. The couple was arraigned and ordered held on $200,000 bonds. Do postpone. They are not allowed contact with the children involved in the abuse and cannot have unsupervised contact with any minors. A man charged with shooting his grandfather dead two years ago at the behest of his mother has pleaded guilty to second degree murder and will testify against the mother. Jacob Campanin, 22, entered his plea deal last week. An open murder charge, along with conspiracy and firearm charges were dismissed. Campanin and his mother, Margaret Campan, left home on December 7th in Minnesota, heading to the home of Margaret Campan's father in law, 87 year old Alvin Campan. Margaret Campan's husband told police he had no contact with her and his children after they left and that he was concerned they were heading to his father's house in Wisconsin. He reported a text from his father that they had arrived, but Alvin Campan didn't reply any further. Authorities found Alvin dead from a gunshot wound on December 19, then traced Margaret Campanin and her son via license plate readers arresting them at a gas station in Iowa that same day. Margaret and Jacob Campanin claimed that the man they killed was not Alvin, a search warrant says Jacob told investigators they believed his grandfather was already dead when they arrived at the house to seek shelter. Jacob advised that the spirits told him grandpa opened the well up behind the house and the spirits killed him. Margaret Kim Paynan made similar statements, telling investigators the man they found was able to get up like a 20 year old and was not her father in law. The search warrant noted that many of the claims they made about Alvin were similar to the plot of the horror movie the Visit. Houghton County Prosecuting Attorney Dan Helmer says he ultimately agreed to the plea deal with Jacob after learning Iowa police did not honor his request for a lawyer. During questioning at his plea hearing, Jacob Kampanin admitted driving to his grandfather's house and shooting him, then shooting him again at his mother's encouragement. His sentencing has not been scheduled and he will testify against his mother when her trial begins next year.
