COLUMBIA, S.C.—Authorities say a 15-year-old girl who stabbed a classmate at a South Carolina high school has been charged with attempted murder.
Richland County Sheriff’s Department spokeswoman Cynthia Roldan says the student was charged as a juvenile because of her age and is being held in a juvenile jail.
Deputies say the 15-year-old stabbed a 17-year-old girl at A.C. Flora High School in Columbia, around noon on Feb. 25.

I just saw this story from My hometowns newspaper site, maybe wanted to update the listeners on the Gypsy Blanchard story …https://t.co/a65kII8Bxl— McKye (@GoodApollo314) February 22, 2019
The Springfield News-Leader reports that 29-year-old Nicholas Godejohn of Big Bend, Wisconsin, won’t be eligible for parole under the sentence ordered on Feb. 22. The sentence was the only one possible after he was convicted in November of first-degree murder in the June 2015 death of 48-year-old Clauddine “Dee Dee” Blanchard at her home near Springfield.
Defense attorneys argued for a lesser charging, saying that Blanchard’s daughter, Gypsy Blanchard, manipulated Godejohn into killing her mother in order to escape from an abusive home life. She already is serving a 10-year prison sentence.
