A Pennsylvania teen, Royce Moser, 18, and his mother, Rachel Moser, 56, have been charged with the murder of a college soccer player, Karoline Heintz, 18. The Washington County police allege that Royce Moser stabbed Heintz after a demon supposedly instructed him to do so. After the stabbing, the pair allegedly hid Heintz's body, destroyed evidence, and disposed of the murder weapon.
Both Royce and Rachel Moser face multiple charges including homicide, tampering with evidence, abuse of a corpse, conspiracy, and obstruction of justice. Heintz was a defender on her high school soccer team and was set to make her collegiate debut for PennWest California's Vulcans team the following week. Coaches and teammates of Heintz have paid tribute to her, describing her as a bright and kind young woman.
