Finally, because “they wanted somebody”, she said she told them that her brother’s girlfriend was home alone in the trailer court near the public library in New Richmond.
Bookey has been charged as an adult, but is being held without bail at a juvenile facility in Eau Claire.
The 14-year-old girl is in juvenile custody.
“It’s way too early to talk about that”, Lundell replied.
Prosecutors charged Kali Jade Bookey on Thursday with attempted first-degree intentional homicide. The 14-year-old allegedly rode her bike over to the victim’s house and attacked the victim, 15, as she slept, breaking bowls over her head and using the shards as knives.
The victim remained in Regions Hospital in St. Paul, said Chief Deputy Scott Knudson of the St. Croix County Sheriff’s Office. There she identified her alleged attacker, police said in the documents.
St. Croix County sheriff’s deputies responded to a report of an attempted abduction.
Police arrived at the brother’s girlfriend’s home and heard someone inside calling for an ambulance, saying she needed help.
Police found the 15-year-old victim Wednesday morning bleeding heavily from the face and neck.
New Richmond is 45 miles east of Minneapolis.
The victim, who told police later she believed she was going to die, chose the latter option and told the departing attacker to have a nice day. She told investigators that she struck the girl’s face and head 30 times, maybe more. Bookey didn’t stop until the victim called her by name. She wanted to scare her so she and her mother would move away and her brother would “come back to the family”.
When she asked Kali for water, the criminal complaint reveals the younger girl told the victim “that if she got some water, in return, she would get to cut (the victim’s) throat”. When the victim answered to bleed out, she stopped cutting, according to the complaint.
According to the complaint, the defendant told investigators that it was a little past dawn Wednesday when she hid her bike in some weeds and, dressed in a black hoodie, crept through an unlocked sliding glass door at the victim’s trailer home. She later said she hated the girl because the girl made her brother happier than she could.
Kali also detailed how she wore rubber gloves that morning, and waited in the living room before the attack in order to get her breathing under control.

HollywoodLifers, leave your well wishes for the victim and her family below. Bookey said she remained silent during the attack in hopes of remaining anonymous to the victim. Bookey used one of the bowl shards to cut her and slit her throat, she said. She became “very exhausted from all of the strikes to her face and believed that she was close to passing out”, the complaint said. She said Bookey attacked her in bed and tried to suffocate her before hitting her in the face, the documents showed.
