‘We Didn’T Murder Breanna, Thea Did’: Alleged Killers Blame Friend For Fatal Attack

A janitor and her friend both told police they did not know teenage mother Breanna Mackey was being stabbed to death by their other friend until it was too late, jurors heard yesterday. Sergeant Makelle Pinder said both Zaria Burrows and Dervinique Edwards told her they thought Thea Williams was “punching” the 19-year-old victim when in fact she was repeatedly stabbing her with a kitchen knife. Sgt Pinder said Burrows, in particular, said she only realised Mackey was stabbed after Williams got back in her car after the January 2018 attack and told her and the others: “Look at all this blood on my knife”. Sgt Pinder said both women denied any involvement in the attack, claiming they observed Williams and their other three friends assault Mackey while they were seated in Burrows’ silver Honda.
