9 year-old Pleads Guilty to Killing Playmate

CNN.com reports that a nine year old girl pled guilty to manslaughter Friday, admitting that she fatally stabbed her eleven year old playmate over a fight for a ball. Apparently the nine year old had stabbed the girl at a Memorial Day gathering this year. The mother of the nine year old had left the two alone for a moment while she went to borrow something for a neighbor. When the mother returned, her daughter had plunged a knife into the eleven year old's chest.
