On the day of their arrest, the girls were put into the back of the same patrol car. As WFTV previously reported<\/a>, the move allowed officers to listen in to a conversation between the girls, who didn\u2019t realize they were being recorded. Their conversation included jokes about mug shots, discussions about how much prison time they\u2019d receive, and frustrations one of their friends snitched, officers said.<\/p>\n Prosecutors are now using that conversation as ammunition against Valdez and Lippert as they push a judge to keep the girls behind bars.<\/p>\n Investigators reported the girls shared an obsession with the shooter of the 2012 Sandy Hook Elementary School massacre in Connecticut and intended to kill the victim because they believed he resembled the gunman. According to police reports, the girls planned to use the victim\u2019s blood in a ritual to \u201cbring back to life\u201d the Sandy Hook shooter.<\/p>\n Channel 9\u2019s Martha Sugalski recently spoke to the mother of the student investigators say was the intended target.<\/p>\n Jenifer, who also works as a speech-language pathologist at the school, described the emotional toll<\/a> as a constant struggle that has affected her ability to sleep and eat.<\/p>\n Mom speaks out after teens arrested in alleged plot to kill son at Lake Brantley High <\/p>\n Channel 9 will be in court Wednesday morning for the bond hearing for Valdez and Lippert.<\/p>\n Watch Eyewitness News starting at noon for updates on this story. <\/p>\n Click here<\/a> to download our free news, weather and smart TV apps.
