Two high school girls in central Florida brought knives to school in a foiled plot to kill classmates, cut them up and drink their blood before killing themselves, police said. Police say they found a hand-drawn map of the school and hallways in the home of the 12-year-old, which showed where the girls planned to commit their killings. Source: Bartow Police
