A 12-year-old girl in Humboldt, Tennessee has been charged with murder after she suffocated her cousin as the young girl slept.
According to ABC News, a security camera recorded the killing which took place inside the bedroom they shared on July 15 in Humboldt, Tennessee, the county prosecutor said.
The recording shows the older child using bedding to suffocate her cousin as the younger girl slept in the top bunk, Gibson District Attorney Frederick Agee’s statement said.

After the child died, the juvenile cleaned up the victim and repositioned her body,” Agee revealed.
The girl was charged with first-degree murder and tampering with evidence after authorities obtained the video last Wednesday.

A relative however told WREG-TV in Memphis that the girls had been arguing over an iPhone after coming from out of town to stay with their grandmother.
“I consider this to be one of the most disturbing violent acts committed by either an adult or juvenile that my office has prosecuted,” Agee wrote in the statement.
Agee stated that he would petition a judge to prosecute the girl, who turns 13 later this month, in adult court.
He added that it would allow for a lengthier sentence, which will either be through incarceration or supervision with court-ordered conditions.
