State Police in Jackson County, Ky. have charged 18-year-olds Corinne Schwab, Ashley Sams (pictured above) and an unnamed 17-year-old girl with kidnapping and criminal attempt to commit murder of a lesbian classmate.
The investigators say the three teens were supposed to be taking their lesbian classmate Cheyenne Williams to a job interview, according to WKYT. However, Williams was taken against her will to nearby Flat Lick Falls, where they attempted to push her off a cliff. Williams escaped from the others and was able to find help following an attack that friends say was purely because Williams is a lesbian, according to WLEX.
A school administrator says that the girls all appeared to be close friends, and that there has never seemingly been a problem between them. A motive for the attempted murder has not yet been established by police.
