[HipChick]

Her body was discovered in the shrubbery between million-dollar homes in the wealthy neighborhood of Vienna, Va. The 16yr old teen was reported missing by her family two days before her body was found dumped..

The teen had never injected heroin before, authorities say, and on that hot summer night, she could not find a vein. An acquaintance put the needle in Emylee Lonczak’s arm for her.

As she and others drove back to Northern Virginia from the District, the 16-year-old passed out, court papers say. Someone suggested dumping her in the city, but the other two people in the car said no, the papers say. They finally settled on carrying her into the basement of one of their homes, laying her on a bed.

One friend, who now faces federal criminal charges, later told investigators that he was with the McLean High School student when she died, court papers say. Fearing he would get in trouble, he said, he dragged her body outside and left it near some shrubs. He covered it with a screen window

1. How sad. NT

2. Good Samaritan 911 laws are designed to prevent this.

Those laws say you're not going to get busted if you seek emergency medical assistance for your friend who is overdosing.

I wonder if either DC or Virginia has those laws.

3. Whoa

Grew up there. I would never have imagined heroin in that neighborhood or any of my friends even thinking of doing it. So very sad! Her family must be devastated.

4. What does it take to call 911?

This is such a shame.
