EXTRACT: I donâ€™t know. Honestly I donâ€™t know why I did it. Maybe I wanted to hurt something. Maybe I wanted to hurt her. I donâ€™t know. And then Mum and Dad came home and they saw what had happened and they thought it was Beth. They thought she killed her own pet. God, how must that have felt?
