"There were instances when I learned about the way people were planning to go, watched then, and killed them along the way [...] I noticed that a girl of 12 or 13 was coming behind me, carrying some kind of bag in her hand. I slowed down and let her catch up to me. We walked together beside the woods. I started talking to her, about whatever I thought might interest her. I remember she said she was going home from the store [...] I pushed her off the road and grabbed her by the waist and dragged her into the woods. I pushed her onto the ground, tore off her clothing and lay on her. At the same time, I was stabbing her, imitating sex. From that, I ejaculated [...] I threw her clothes and bag away somewhere, but I don't remember where."
