Heartbreaking final video of girl, 14, posing on TikTok just hours before she was ‘stabbed to death by parents’
A SCHOOLGIRL poses for the camera in a heartbreaking final video just hours before she was allegedly knifed to death by her parents.
Scarlett Vickers, 14, shared the video from her bedroom on her TikTok on Friday while posing for the camera.
Just hours later, the teen was found dead at the home in Darlington, County Durham, after suffering a single knife wound.
Her parents Simon Vickers, 48, and Sarah Hall, 44, have been charged with murdering their daughter.
Scarlett can be seen posing for the camera in a black outfit in the TikTok video, which she captioned: “Ignore the mess pls”.
She also shared a series of selfies on June 29 just days before the tragedy.
Tributes have flooded in for the teenager from devastated friends.
One pal wrote: “Ma best friend missing u ma poor baby.”
Another said: “Rest easy up there scarlett gone but never forgotten Forever 14”.
While one friend said: “Rest easy pretty girl, you didn’t deserve any of that. Hope you have a peaceful life up with all the animals and people up in heaven. You will be missed Scarlett”.
Bunches of flowers and candles have been left outside the schoolgirl’s home following the horror.
Su Gill, the Principal of Haughton Academy where Scarlett was a pupil, said: “Scarlett was a lovely girl with a great sense of humour. She was always immaculately turned out, respectful and polite.
“A very friendly girl, she was popular with her friends and will be greatly missed by the school community.
“The staff and students at Haughton Academy and the Education Village Academy Trust are extremely saddened by the news and would like to pass on our thoughts to everyone affected by this tragedy.
“The Trust is working hard to support pupils and staff through this very difficult time.”
The horror unfolded at around 11pm on Friday as police and paramedics were scrambled to the address in Geneva Road.
Tragically, the teenager couldn’t be saved and was declared dead at the scene.
Vickers and Hall appeared at Newton Aycliffe Magistrates’ Court yesterday where they were remanded into custody.
The court was told there was an “incident” at the couple’s home that resulted in the “fatal stabbing of their 14-year-old daughter”.
They will next appear at Teesside Crown Court on August 5.
