A teenage boy met a brutal death after four students hacked him with a machete and buried him alive.Two attackers then had sex near his shallow grave, police said.
The group plotted the gruesome murder of Jose Amaya Guardado for two weeks, digging the grave and hiding the machete in woods near their Florida university campus.
Kaheem Arbelo, 20, Jonathan Lucas, 18, and Christian Colon, 19, were arrested and confessed to the crime last week, Miami-Dade police said.
The students are believed to have lured Guardado to woods near the Homestead Job Corps campus, where all five lived around 35 miles south of Miami.
Arbelo, Lucas and Colon then allegedly ambushed Guardado and Arbelo struck him repeatedly with the machete.
Strickland "complained that she had missed the first series of machete strikes because she had walked away for a few minutes to urinate in the woods," according to the arrest report
Accused: Jonathan Lucas and Kaheem Arbelo
The teenager was then made to lay in the grave where he died before the suspects attempted to burn the evidence.
Lucas and Colon returned to campus while Strickland and Arbelo stayed behind to have sex, police said.
Guardado's body was discovered three days later by his brothers, who saw feet in a burned area and alerted police.
Police believe the teenager was killed over a debt he owed to Arbelo, a suspected drug dealer, NBC Miami reported.
Arbelo, Lucas and Colon confessed to the killings on video, New York Daily News reported.
Strickland, however, shoved and head-butted a detective before she was handcuffed in the interview room, police said.
