Teah Wimberly – A student at Dillard High School in Ft. Lauderdale FL, Teah Wimberly, has been charged in the shooting death of 15 year old Amanda Collette.
Teah Wimberly shot and killed Amanda Collette in the Dillard High School hallway while classes were changing.
Amanda Collette was shot in the torso and pronounced dead at Broward General Medical Center.
Information provided by by those who know Teah Wimberly said that the Dillard High School shooting resulted from a desire on the part of Wimberly, also 15, to have a lesbian relationship with the victim.
Amanda Collette did not reciprocate those feelings, so Teah Wimberly allegedly shot her, fled the school grounds, and called police from a nearby restaurant saying she had shot her friend.
Police say the incident is isolated and there is no further danger to Dillard High School students.
That’s the latest news about Teah Wimberly.

Teah is not a bad person she just let emotions come over her which was a bad idea. I’ve met Teach and she is a very gentle and loving person. I don’t know the victim but may god rest her soul and give healing to her family.

It wasnt that serious for her to kill the poor girl!
I mean if she didnt like you teah u should have just moved on!! U probably was in love but you didnt have to shoot her and kill her.. If you wanted to shoot her you should of shot her in the arm or leg! Hell im in love been there for 3 years now that dont mean ima go go kill him if he dont feel the same. ima jus keep searching for that good luck charm.

this is something that should not of happen. Teah let her emotions get the best of her the metal dectors at the school should have been in use. My heart goes out to both of the families Teah’s and Amanda’s.

This is the saddest shit ever, how can i walk through that school ever again? or anyone else? how can i be happy and go to class where blood once poured on the floor from this stupid ass girl killing amanda, IF SHE DIDNT LOVE YOU, SHE DIDNT LOVE YOU. she loved you as a friend and i know she never thought you would take her life from her. you ruined so much. you dererve more time than whatever you get and there’s no exscuce for this. this really pisses me off. i have no reight to say this, but god is going to get you. i highly doubt you believe in god. but wtf business do you have making someone take their last breath. i wish she would have never met you. i wish for every second of pain she was in that you will get it 1,000 times harder. and that for every sad thought or every tear drop her family and friends cry/cried you WILL PAY. i dont forgive you! and i hope you are in that cell scared as can be, cause god is no longer walking with you. he may forgive you, but those friends and family of hers wont. and this is how retaliation starts. i dont know you but i thin you made the dumbest decision ever. how the world did yo ueven get a gun? your mom should have really been doing her job n stompin that ass when u was grown up girl. you done lost your damn mind.
R.I.P. amanda., you learn who your real friends are, and you will never have to see her face again. my condolences to amanda’s family

Teah was not a bad person she just was going through alot but that still didnt give her the right to go and kill or hurt someone that didnt mean any harm she could have went to someone and talk to them and if she did they should have told her the right thing to do instead of what she did do. and i really hate to see all these comments on other websites on that Teah did it because she was white that was not true thats non-sense if you open up your eyes to see that amanda was not white she was mixed but that does n ot matter Teah loved everyone of all colors so the way i feel is that everyone should just let Amanda rest in peace. Its like everybody got something negative to say when most of the people wasnt there to see what really happened……
R~I~P AMANDA….. WE LOVE YOU AND MISS YOU!!!!

I’ve known Amanda and Teah since I was in the third grade. We all attended Walker. Even though I didn’t really talk to Teah like that me and Amanda were the best of friends and still are to this day. I knew Teah was gay, she would call my house at all times of night and if i didnt answer she would try to make her friends call me from a diffrent number.
Teah was not what I wanted so I had to get out. I drew myself away from her. Eventually she got over it. Everyday of my life I wish i would have went to Dillard so I could have warned Amanda ‘NOT TO GET INVOLVED’. even if something like this didnt happen people still shouldnt put themselves in positions if they know they don’t feel a certain way about someone. I never knew Teah and amanda were even friends.
I had a baby boy.
Amanda said she would come by to see us because she had missed us so much.
Before i could even see her a couple of weeeks later she was gone.
I never thought someone that close to me and so young could just die.
i’ve had family members who have died and i didnt cry.
But at her wake I cried my heart OUT. She was the sweetest thing ever all she ever did was love people.
I miss amanda so much. Everytime i see her picture or hear her name.
my heart stops…….
I love you so much babe.
May you dance in heaven(;

Wow…Today Makes It A Year.
And Even Though I Didn’t Know Amanda Nor Teah Personally…I Still Feel As If I Should Speak About What’s On My Mind. When I First Heard About This I Was In Complete Shock…Its Crazy How You Can Just Wake Up One Morning And Not Realize That This Is It…This Is Going To Be Your Last Day Living. Love Can Cause People To Do Many Careless Things And That’s What Happened In This Situation…As Stated Before Teah Did Let Her Emotions Get The Best Of Her…And Now She Has To Pay For Her Wrong Doings. Amanda Was Just A Victim Who Maybe Loved Teah (As A Friend)…But Not Exactly On The Love Level Teah Wanted Them Both To Be On…In Her Mind She Felt As If She Was Rejected And Right Then And There…That Rejection Caused Her To BLOW UP And Show Amanda The Horrible Pain She Was Feeling Inside By Killing Her…Revenge Was All She Wanted…And Karma Caught Up With Her…I Bet Teah Is Deeply Sorry For What She Did…Because She Didn’t Give Herself Time To Think Before She Did What She Did…What She Did Was Wrong…And All She’s Able To Do Is Pray That God Will Watch Upon Her, And Forgive This Dreadful Sin She’s Commited…
My Condolences Goes Out To Both Amanda And Teah’s Families…
R.I.P Amanda C. May God Bless You And Your Loved Ones In Their Time Of Mourning…
