A 14-year-old Florida middle school student was stabbed 40 times in the school bathroom. Both his jugular veins were severed and a "gaping wound" was in his windpipe, the medical examiner said.
Seven more wounds were found on the right hand of Jaime Gough, indicating he probably tried to defend himself.
The accused killer, Michael Hernandez, also 14, was said to have showed off a knife months before allegedly attacking Gough.
Hernandez will be tried as an adult. Although he gave a detailed confession to police, according to authorities, he has pleaded not guilty to first-degree murder. He also allegedly had a journal showing he was "fixated on violence."
