Plot
Three years later with the police still unable to solve Jenny's murder, another friend of Jenny's, Kathy Pearl (Janne Mortil) comes forward out of guilt. Kathy tells the police she was brought along with the girls (Jenny, Ellen, and Carla) when they attacked Jenny by slapping her, chopping off pieces of her hair, and then finally drowning her. Kathy claims they did it because they believed Jenny had slept with their boyfriends, but during the trial it was revealed that the plain and overweight Ellen was jealous of Jenny's popularity and beauty and wanted "to be her". Kathy told the police that she fled town because Ellen threatened her if she talked. Ellen and Carla are then convicted of second-degree murder and sentenced to 15 years to life in prison.
