Mary, a 10-year-old girl, helped search for Brian, her 3-year-old neighbor, knowing she had already killed him by strangulation and partially skinning his genitals, signing his belly with a razor blade "M". Mary took pleasure in injuring and killing people and animals weaker than herself. She served 10 years in prison for Brian's murder before being released in 1980.
