Murder

Teen stayed after final bell with Danvers High School teacher before killing her & buying Wendy’s meal with her credit card

Ritzer, 24, lived with her parents at their Andover home about 20 miles north of Boston.

Philip Chism, 14, stayed behind when his Algebra class was dismissed for the day after his teacher, Colleen Ritzer, 24, (pictured above) asked him for time to prepare for a test on Tuesday. This was all after she caught him drawing in class.

“There was a test coming up, and she wanted to know if he had any questions.” one student told a Mass. newspaper.

Philip Chism (pictured below) stayed with his math teacher for as long as an hour after school before allegedly killing her, then changing his blood-stained  clothes before going to a movie and buying a Wendy’s meal with her credit card, local reports say.

Philip Chism, 14, alledgely donned white gloves before following Ritzer into a bathroom where investigators say she was killed.

The teen was later caught on surveillance video donning white  gloves and following the teacher to a second-floor bathroom, where he slit her throat with a box cutter.

Sources told the news station that the calculated killer struck the beloved  teacher twice before slashing her throat with a box cutter. The teen then covered  in blood, stuffed Ritzer’s body into a recycling bin, which he wheeled from the  bathroom and out of the school, the station reported.

Chism covered Ritzer’s body with leaves before the teen grabbed a change of  clothes from his black backpack on went on his way.

What I want to know is, where was the school faculty and school security when all of this was done? Why did no one see this kid in action and removing the body of his math teacher?

  3. Race, creed, color, and ethnic origin don’t matter — the sad fact is that boys growing up in homes without their father present are much more likely to commit crimes, even murder. This is sad 😥

    1. Exactly why come nobody saw him committing the crime? And were they in the school alone? Sad that this kid was capable of murder.

  12. How did this kid get a box cutter into school when kids are sent home for having nail clippers? Suddenly those metal detectors don’t look so bad to have in these schools. This kid was crazy.

  13. wow this story is sad 😥 and disturbing. why did he kill his teacher because she caught him drawing in class or because she was pushing him to study for an upcoming test? I read this girl was the eldest of her two siblings. heartbreaking and senseless.

  17. This is really fucked up!
    The girl probably had no clue what he was capable of, plus it sounds like he snuck her in the bathroom and knocked her out b4 slitting her throat. Ole dude look mixed too like he might be half Spanish or something. I feel for her family…she still lived at home with her parents and other siblings.
