The killers of 12-year-old Autumn Pasquale have been found to be a pair of adolescent brothers. According to the local authorities, they enticed her to come into their own house to give her parts for her BMX bike, but they were actually planning to rob her from her own.

Autumn's remains were found on Monday evening (at around 10 p.m.), crammed in a recycling bin after she had disappeared last Saturday. That bin is just a couple blocks away from her house and Borough Hall, where many people had earlier gathered for a sorrowful candlelight prayer vigil.

Sean Dalton, the Gloucester County prosecutor, had said in a press conference that the case saw some real progress when the teenagers' own mother called the police after noticing a suspicious post on her son's Facebook account. Law enforcement officials have also revealed that they presume Autumn was murdered by strangulation and that there were no indications of sexual assault.

According to some neighbors, the house of the accused has been said to be a frequent hang out for teenagers and that one of the co-accused regularly traded BMX bike pieces. The siblings, 15 and 17, are now already facing murder charges, conspiracy, discarding and tampering with a body and theft.
