Teen's Body Found in Arizona Desert
Two Other Teens Arrested in Amber LeAnn Hess' Death
Amber was reportedly went missing sometime Friday or Saturday. With her body being found Monday, and her car was located on Tuesday.
Authorities are telling Fox News that two 16 year old boys have been arrested for the murder of Amber after her body was discovered badly burned near Florence. From what investigators have said thus far to FoxNews.com the two un-named boys had made statements that led authorities to believe they were involved. "Basically they just didn't like her and for whatever reason were planning to kill her. They went to her home and through a combination of beating, stabbing and choking, killed her." That is the word coming from Pinal County Sheriff Chris Vasquez. After beating, stabbing, and choking Amber to death, the two reportedly took her to the desert area and burned her body.
The parents of Amber Hess were out of town for the weekend reports FoxNews.com. When they returned home on Sunday they found signs of a struggle in the home along with blood in the home. According to Fox News Candy Hess, Amber's mother said that one of the boys arrested was "like a brother" to her daughter, and that the young teen had spend time in the home before hanging out and playing video games.
From the looks of the home when officials arrived to investigate according to FoxNews.com and Sheriff Chris Vasquez it was apparent that Amber Hess had "...fought for her life in that home, and she didn't die easy - it was very brutal. If they had been adults I would be screaming for the death penalty in this case."
Authorities tell Fox News that they received several tips in the case that initially led them to the two suspects. One of the tips the Sheriffs department received according to Sheriff Chris Vasquez stated the boys were "coming to borrow supplies to use in cleaning up after the murder." Once Vasquez's department was able to acquire a search warrant for the boy's homes they reportedly found "quite a bit" of evidence linking them to the crime which was then seized by authorities. FoxNews.com is also reporting that Deputy Chief Chris Lee as saying "evidence tying the pair to the crime included fingerprints and weapons."

well its very sad but there could be another side to the story becuause come on what boys would actually kill a girl for absolutely no reason at all. she must of done something to them, maybe she was sexually active with the both and they thought she was a hoe.. but still they had no reason to kill her but maybe she was asking for it... RIP
i am so sorry for the girl & her parents !!! i don't understand what is going on these day with teenagers
Thanks for reporting. I agree...very sad.
