They Set Her on Fire: One of the Three Females Who Set Audreanna Zimmerman on Fire Pleads Guilty

On April 8, 2010, Heather Lee along with two other females tortured and then set Audreanna Zimmerman on fire. Audreanna later died from her injuries. Lee has plead guilty to lesser charges of second-degree murder and agreed to testify against her co-defendants. She will be sentenced on March 15.

As part of her plea agreement, the state attorney's office has agreed to not seek the death penalty against Lee. Lee has agreed to and must provide details down to the very minute they doused Zimmerman. Her testimony will hopefully provide some relief and answer questions the family has had since the murder occurred.

Since the night of April 8, 2010, Zimmerman's family has had to deal with the agony of remembering the final day and minute of Audreanna's death. They have only been provided with the meager details the investigators could piece together from evidence collected, bits and pieces of information from credible sources and the little they could determine from analyzing the crime scene.

The answers they really need perhaps will now come to light from Heather. Will Heather tell the truth? You wonder if when a person's life is based on what she must disclose if she provides the truth, will justice now be served?

Audreanna is gone. Her family has suffered unimaginable emotional and perhaps even some physical pain. The images that play themselves out in their minds night after night after night can only be compared to Hell here on Earth. It would be almost impossible to empathize with the relatives' pain unless you have gone through similar events in your own life. And there have not been many similar incidents so horrible as this.

On the night of Audreanna's death, what is known is that she was beaten with a crowbar, shocked with a stun gun, doused with an accelerant and then set on fire. What evil would make an individual do this to another human being? How much hate can make anyone that hard, emotionally, that they could watch and participate in making a living, breathing person experience the pain of this type of assault?

This was such a horrible case. It was hard for people in Pensacola not even aware of Adreanna, to hear the details of the murder.
