Kids That Kill: Christopher Simmons and Charles Benjamin abducted and killed Shirley Crook; Both sentenced to LWOP

Shirley Crook

Unfortunately most of the stuff I could find on this case centers soley on the killer, Christopher Simmons. Shirley Crook, the real victim, has been completely forgotten out there, except by her family and loved ones. All of this is supposed to be about justice for the victim, but yet, all anyone talks about is how unfair it is for the killer, but tell me, how fair was it to Shirley Crook? How did she deserve what happened to her? She did not deserve this. She deserves justice. No clemency for her killer.
