The two female attackers punched, kicked, and stamped on the victim’s stomach, back, and chest. One of her nails was ripped off, and alcohol was poured onto her bloodied face. During the nightmare, Pearson coldly told the teen victim, “It didn’t have to be like this.”
At one point, Pearson urged the others, “I don’t think it’s dead yet, continue,” before leaving the room. Against all odds, the victim did not suffer a miscarriage.
