This week, the KBI announced the arrests of two 14-year-old freshman girls at Augusta High School. Both are facing charges for the first degree murder of Johnson.
The father of those girls said he had no idea his daughter was involved and still doesn't believe it. KAKE's Deb Farris spoke with him over the phone Friday evening. He told Farris that he sat with his daughter while she was being interviewed by police. He said his daughter said she and her friend were walking in a park on the day of the murder when a white man came up to them and "coerced" them into going to Johnson's home. She said the man grabbed a rusty axe from Johnson's garage and beat Johnson to death. The father said his daughter held her hands over her friend's ears so she couldn't hear what was happening, and that the man had told the girls he would kill them and their families if they told anyone what happened.
The father said that since that day, his daughter and the other girl have been up in their rooms. The once active, outgoing teenagers were now quiet and reserved and he had no idea why.
He believes his daughter and her friend are victims and are being singled out. He believes his daughter when she says she had nothing to do with Johnson's death. Now, she is being held in a juvenile detention facility in Geary County.
. Can't believe teen girls did this
