In the Name of Satan

A lovely teenage girls final goodbye... "I love you and Im going to bed " were the last words Elyse Pahler ever said to her parents. But she would never dream again for the pretty blond 15-year-old was about to begin a walking nightmare that would end in her grisly stabbing murder. Three depraved schoolboys deadly fantasies... Later that night Elyse slipped out of her parents house for a bit of forbidden fun. She never suspected that three local boys - two of whom rode the school bus with her - were outside in the dark waiting...waiting to perform a human sacrifice - in the name of Satan. An unspeakable atrocity that stunned a nation... The DA claims that teenagers Royce Casey Jacob Delashmutt and Joe Fiorella - all in a band called Hatred - believed they had found the ultimate offering to make to the Prince of Darkness. They would sacrifice an innocent young girl a virgin. Prosecutors say the three boys dragged a terrified Elyse to a deserted area they believed was the devils altar where after being drugged and attacked she died of multiple stab wounds. For eight months Elyses body lay hidden in a eucalyptus grove until an unexpected tip to police revealed the ghastly crime. In The Name of Satan is an unthinkable American tragedy a horrifying voyage into deepest evil imaginable.
