Two Florida teenagers accused of plotting to kill a classmate were caught on camera laughing and joking about their arrests — even discussing how they would appear in their mugshots.
According to the New York Post, Lois Olivios Lippert, 14, and Isabelle Aurelia Valdez, 15, were recorded inside the back of a police vehicle shortly after being taken into custody in January.
Investigators say the pair had allegedly been planning a violent attack on a student at Lake Brantley High School in Altamonte Springs.
The teens were seen on video joking with each other while sitting in the patrol car.
Valdez — who reportedly went by the name “Jimmy” — told Lippert she had hoped to wear makeup so she would look good in her booking photo.
Valdez said she wanted to “wear make up” to look attractive in her mugshot but had been unable to find any that morning, according to a police report cited by the outlet.
Lippert responded casually.
“I’m glad I don’t look too bad today,” she said.
Valdez replied, “At least they will see me in the mugshot some way or another,” according to the report.
Authorities said the remark suggested the teens believed the case could make them well known in the “true crime” community.
The video also captured the girls making jokes about what life might be like behind bars.
They reportedly laughed about becoming a “lesbian couple in jail.”
According to the police report, Lippert told Valdez, “yea, you can be the butch.”
Valdez then laughed and responded, “Stay away.”
Police arrested the two girls on Jan. 22 after receiving a tip about a possible attack being planned at their school.
Investigators said the alleged plot involved targeting a specific student.
Court documents filed this month say Valdez had developed an obsession with Adam Lanza, the gunman responsible for the 2012 Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting.
Authorities said Valdez believed killing someone could somehow bring Lanza back to life.
“It was learned that the victim reminded [Valdez] of Adam Lanza and that she believed if she killed the victim, she would have a blood bond with Adam Lanza, which would resurrect him from the dead,” a court motion states.
Investigators said Valdez sent messages about the plan to Lippert through the video chat app Discord.
In one message, she allegedly wrote, “holy s–t im gonna make a blood ritual for adam lanza LMAOOOO.”
She also reportedly told Lippert, “it’s gonna be over by tomorrow,” and asked her to bring latex gloves.
Authorities said Valdez planned to ambush the intended victim in a restroom at school.
Investigators said she intended to stab the student in the stomach or cut his throat.
After the attack, she allegedly planned to leave flowers at the scene and smoke a cigarette.
Police also said Lippert contributed to the disturbing plot.
According to investigators, she drew pictures showing the victim dead and hanging from a rope next to Valdez.
Authorities also said she created several sexually explicit drawings of the classmate.
Both teenagers have been charged with attempted first-degree murder, and a judge denied them bond at a hearing on Wednesday.
