CHEERLEADER Tristyn Bailey's body was found with "Karma" written on her ankle after her suspected killer, Aiden Fucci, told friends he wanted to stab someone, new reports reveal.
The word was written in blue ink on her left ankle while a smiley face was drawn on the inside of her right ankle.
It is not known who is responsible for the drawings.
The 13-year-old girl was murdered in May with her autopsy showing she had 49 defensive stab wounds on her arms and right hand.
Fucci, 14, is charged with her murder but has pleaded not guilty.
Bailey's body was found in a wood near a lake by her Florida home after surveillance footage appeared to show her walking there with Fucci on the night of May 9.
She had been stabbed a total of 114 times, cops said.
Newly released documents reveal interviews with Fucci's friends in which they discuss his comments about wanting to stab someone.
One friend told cops that a month before Bailey's murder, Fucci had talked about bringing someone into the woods and stabbing them, according to the St Augustine Record.
The friend said Fucci "would take his knife out and pretend to stab her with it."
"Aiden would draw graphic pictures depicting mutilated bodies," she said.
'SOMETHING WAS WRONG WITH HIM'
The friend also claimed that Fucci heard voices when he was angry that would tell him to kill people, according to the police report.
"Aiden knew something was wrong with him and wanted to reach out for help," she said.
The new police reports also reveal the evidence cops uncovered that led to Fucci's arrest.
A search of the teen's room reportedly found a Buck knife sheath and a pair of shoes and shirt with blood on them.
They also found several pocket knives and a "homemade shank."
Police said previously discovered what they believe to be the murder weapon, a folding buck knife, from a pond near to where the cheerleader's body was found on May 9.
The tip of the knife was missing, which medical examiners later located lodged in Bailey's scalp.
DNA ON BODY
Fucci faces life behind bars after prosecutors decided to charge him as an adult with premeditated first-degree murder in the brutal killing of 13-year-old Bailey.
Fucci had previously been charged as a juvenile on one count of second-degree murder.
None of the others who were with the pair the night Bailey died are suspected of wrongdoing.
But prosecutors voiced frustration that Fucci's alleged plans to commit homicide were "not taken seriously" when he confessed them to "several" of his peers.
"Could this have been prevented? We can't be sure," Florida State Attorney RJ Larizza said, adding that the murder should serve as a cautionary tale to parents that they "need to know what your kids are doing and saying."
Larizza refused to disclose whether the killing was sexually motivated, or whether Tristyn had been sexually assaulted during the murder.
He did however disclose that investigators found Fucci's DNA on Bailey's body.
They also found Tristyn's DNA the shoes and t-shirt found in Fucci's bedroom, Larizza said.

When pressed by reporters, Larizza said there is no evidence to suggest that Fucci suffers from any psychological conditions. He also said that the teen had no previous criminal history.

The state attorney said it "would be an understatement" to describe Tristyn's murder as "horrific."
"She was fighting for her life. It's just sad that we have to talk about that."
