Christine Paolilla, a former student of Clear Lake High School in suburban Houston is now charged with murder in court after police tracked her connection with the quadruple murder of her High School Friends, Rachael Koloroutis and Tiffany Rowell on 2003.

This case has been a mystery for years without any clue or leads as to why the four kids were violently slaughtered in a quiet neighborhood, until after 6 years, a tipster came forth and gave hints to the real score.

The Police had to track down the two suspects on separate locations. Christine Paolilla was caught by the Police in a motel which she and her boyfriend lived and bummed over for 9 months. When Police got hold of Paolilla, they found hundreds of needles filled with heroin stacked on the room. Paolilia was in a very bad situation of drug addiction when she was caught by the Police. Police says that Christine Paolilla started using drugs again after she had numerous and continous nightmares and hallucinations of the said victims particularly seeing the face of Rachael Koloroutis and Tiffany Rowell. Drugs helped Christine free herself from this hallucinations.
