Jeannette aka Bernadette looks just like her banker sister Virginia Varela. Virginia testified that she used a large knife in her car to cut veggies. If that's true how do these people live with themselves?
In my opinion she perjured herself. I do not believe it was her knife, I feel she was covering for her sister so the prosecution couldn't charge Bernadette with first degree premeditated murder. If she was found guilty of that maybe she would still be in jail.
I truly believe she planned to kill Kirsten. And thought she would get away with it.
NO ONE drives around with a foot-and-a-half long knife (that's eighteen inches) in their car for cutting vegetables. No one.
ReplyDeleteYeah that story is bull
DeleteI agree, she planned it. She was unloved with her and that's why she killed her.
DeleteVIRGINIA PROTTI VARELA TROLLS ALL OF THESE WEBSITES DAILY, AND TRIES TO CONVINCE EVERYONE THAT KIRSTEN BULLIED BERNADETTE. THE TRUTH OF THE MATTER IS, THAT BERNADETTE PROTTI HAS "BORDERLINE PERSONALITY DISORDER" AND SHE IS A TRUE PSYCHOPATH, TO THIS DAY!! NICE TRY THOUGH, "GINA".
ReplyDeleteIt's crazy how indignant they are given the fact her sister killed a girl with her knife. Who would work with Virginia or Jeannette knowing what they did. Probably nobody in their lives outside of family knows what they did.
DeleteHow do you know her true psych diagnosis? Did you treat her or are you a shrink yourself?
DeleteYour so judgemental. We don't know the true story we just know what was portrayed by the movies. They could had added things and deleted stuff they didn't want was to know. Also she very much could have changed as a person. Lastly you can't say she is borderline without evidence. You are just spreading rumors.
DeleteSo now you're going after family members? Holy sheep shit, you ARE obsessed.
ReplyDeleteNo you're obsessed. You've been coming to this site for almost a year commenting. You must find it interesting. Lol. And it was her knife. I'm not naming children and in laws. Why don't u get a life instead of worrying about others you claim don't lol
DeleteBernadette/Jeannette does look like her arrogant liar of a sister. ONLY of course, since she got a NOSE JOB. I actually have a few current photos of Bernadette/Jeannette, right before she got plastic surgery. She can try and alter her appearance all day long, but she WAS, IS, AND WILL ALWAYS BE, A "Big, Chunky, Disheveled Girl with Dirty Blonde hair" (as quoted by the witness neighbor who saw Bernadette/Jeannette jump Kirsten and butcher her to death IN COLD BLOOD!
ReplyDeleteLol
DeleteI think her nose looked better before, but she was probably trying to throw everyone off, but she is not a beautiful woman!
ReplyDeleteHey, wait! that is an old picture of Virginia. She just got a new facelift! Go on google images and her new face is there. Maybe Virginia and Bernadette got a 2 for 1 special (Jeannette's new nose, too)
ReplyDeleteLOL anonymous, hahaha
ReplyDeleteYou guys are cracking me up!
ReplyDeleteAnonymous/Virginia Protti Varela: STOP. Just, stop. You KNOW your sister is a PSYCHOPATH!
ReplyDeleteI saw the picture of Virginia on google images. Wow, those soulless eyes of hers are disturbing. Her eyes really do look lifeless. What a family.
ReplyDeleteI thought the same thing when I looked at her eyes. There was something evil about them.

ReplyDeleteThanks for your reply, Anonymous.

ReplyDeleteBernadette wasn't all wrong Kirsten was going to expose her and she snapped cause she was scared she d be the butt of the jokes with the school, she was also fear of bullying yes Bernadette was wrong and Kirsten didn't deserve to die but she treated Bernadette like a weirdo and thought she was better, and Bernadette faced public humiliation at her trial the whole town of zori da went to the trial not for Bernadette in support of Kirsten and they jeered at Bernadette and Bernadette knew what was going on and what they were doing. Bullying can make you snap esp of it's a lot against you it can ruin you and your social life for a long time and bring you down and low,self esteem so anyone who says oh we been bullied take it has never been bullied or dealt with actual bullying. Bernadette was bullied at the trial they all jeered against her and went to humiliate and degrade her that's bullying.
ReplyDeleteI agree with bullying can really mess a person up especially in your young teenage years but it seems like on this site you have adults doing the same thing SMH
DeleteBenadette may of been bullied earlier in life as a child and felt inferiority over it maybe not Miramonte but maybe at an earlier age she experienced some bullying kids can be brutal. I know several girls who had thier hair set on fire got beat up alll the time Imwas harassed to in high school,as well as they were called dirty names so I know Bernadette what she went through know what the 2 goth girls that were accussed went through, I use to be a whore and was bullied over it.
ReplyDeleteI was abused and driven to such demeanor then found God later in life and know to forgive. Imwas bullied for being a whore in my teens.
ReplyDeleteBoth sisters are callous, cold, soulless weirdos.
ReplyDeleteSorry but the victim relentlessly bullied. Not suggesting she deserved to die but let's stop making her out to be an innocent.
ReplyDeleteSarah,
ReplyDeleteWho was the "victim" relentlessly bullied by? Can you give examples and no, a fictional depiction isn't an example. One comment about skis doesn't = bullying.
Kirsten didn't bully Bernadette. Kirsten understandably didn't approve of Bernadette ringing Kirsten's mother about a fake bobbies dinner in order to lure Kirsten out of her house under the pretence of attending the fake bobbies dinner. Bernadette then drove Kirsten to an empty car-park at night after lying to her to get her out of her house so she could "get to know her". Bernadette then viciously butchered Kirsten to death because Kirsten understandably didn't take kindly to being lied to and appears to have found Bernadette's neediness and desperation very off-putting. Stop making Bernadette out to be an innocent.
That part
DeleteYou need help - you are mentally ill Purple Haze! Your name does speak some truth - you are in a fog - a serious mental fog. This is harassing, obsession and stalking. Please seek mental help to get you past this so that you can live the rest of your life without all this crap you are doing! Wow! You are a real serious case. I feel sorry for you.
ReplyDelete"bbmokc",
ReplyDeleteI have received nine email notifications that you have posted on this blog, yet you suggest that I'm obsessed? One of your comments actually suggests that you believe that Kirsten played a role in her death and some other comments sympathize with Bernadette, the murderer, yet you have the laughable impudence to suggest that I am ill? You identifying with a murderer is as sick as it gets.
You need to look up the definition of stalking, harassing and obsession and familiarize yourself with their meanings. An example of stalking and harassing would be constantly contacting Bernadette directly and giving her my unsolicited opinions of her, whereas my opinions of her are confined to this blog.
Obsession is to keep thinking about something constantly to the point of fixation. Just because I write what I think of Bernadette , which has generally been very tame considering she literally butchered Kirsten, or that I support Kirsten, that doesn't mean that I constantly think of Bernadette and it's very childish to suggest that. You clearly have a problem with me because I don't sympathize with Bernadette or view her as a victim like you clearly do in your other comments, so you lash out with petulant name calling like an adolescent.
I have nothing to get "past"? What is your problem with me supporting a murder victim? One shouldn't have to explain why they are disgusted by murder, especially a murder as heinous as Kirsten's.
"Please seek mental help to get you past this so that you can live the rest of your life without all this crap you are doing! Wow! You are a real serious case. I feel sorry for you"
You sympahtize with a murderer and are attempting to lambaste me for being disgusted with a murderer and supporting Kirsten -- the victim of a brutal murder -- yet you are suggesting that I'm " a serious case" or that I should "seek mental help"? it is clear that the heights of your ignorance and stupidity is matched by the depth of your delusion.
No need to feel sorry about me, dear. You should concentrate your efforts on a serious self examination to discover why you are so rabidly against those that support and sympathize with a murder victim and why did you write nine comments defending a murderer?
LEAVE BERNADETTE S BFF ALONE AND OUT OF THIS"""". SHE HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH THE MURDER. DO YOU EVEN KNOW HER? SHE IS A VERY NICE LADY. LEAVE HER OUT OF THIS.
ReplyDeleteNo one's bothering her bff.
ReplyDeleteHi Kirstina,
ReplyDeleteI'm annoyed with you so excuse me if it comes across that way.
What bullying was Bernadette subjected to? Can you give examples of Kirsten being a bully?
Was Kirsten a bully because she understandably didn't approve of Bernadette luring her out of her house under the pretence of attending the fake bobbies dinner? Was Kirsten a bully because she didn't approve of Bernadette driving her to an an empty car-park at night after lying to her to get her out of her house, so she could "get to know her"?
Was Kirsten a bully because she made a sarcastic remark about Bernadette's skis?
Bernadette was the bully here. She viciously butchered Kirsten to death because Kirsten understandably didn't take kindly to Bernadette's lies and Bernadette stalking her all the way to her house, and she appears to have found Bernadette's neediness and desperation very off-putting. Most people would find it off-putting.
Are you referring to me as a bully? If so, how?
I don't find you very pleasant either and if my post offend you then excuse me all I was saying is this post is how supposedly she got bullied now if she did or didn't I don't know because i wasnt involed or any where close to the people so unless you was you truly don't know exactly what was said or done and also who said what to whom so all I was saying is all this name calling and being rude to people for saying something is beneath us as we are adults and should know how to have a discussion with out all this harshness
ReplyDeleteI'm not offended. I don't care if you -- a stranger -- on the internet don't find me pleasant. I was very civil with you, yet you were offended. I know some people support Bernadette, but your post is not genuine. So Stephanie, I see that Kristina is your latest incarnation on this blog. Wow, when will you grow up and stop this childishness?
ReplyDeleteWow you are so offensive you started by saying that i annoyed you and now I'm some sort of incarnation and trust me I'm not I have never said she was innocent I do not agree with murder and yes I do believe she knew what she was doing she killed Kristen and no I don't agree with the sentence she received in my opinion she should have got more time but that part is over and there is nothing anyone can do to change that. I don't like bullies and I never will I have taught my kids to stand up for their selves and turn your back from a bully and if that don't work then fight if you do t like that then so be it so before you state on here that I got offended just remember I annoyed you first.
ReplyDeleteAlso why is my post my genuine?
ReplyDeleteHi Kristina,
ReplyDeleteWhat is offensive? I didn't state that you annoyed me. Look at the comments again.
"but that part is over and there is nothing anyone can do to change that"
That goes without saying and who is trying to change it?
"I don't like bullies"
What bullies?
I never stated that I was annoyed or that you offended me.
Please read first line of your comment

But snywsy my thought on this was no she didn't get enough time no she shouldn't be able to have a life outside of jail
ReplyDeleteFGS, "Kristina", I obviously meant to write I'm Not annoyed with you. I don't know how you didn't come to the conclusion that "I'm annoyed with you, so excuse me if it comes across that way" doesn't make sense.
ReplyDeletethe artwork of the young girl in the "about me" section of Tomanka's blog actually looks a great deal like Kirsten .... an act of contrition on the author's part or something else? either way, kinda creepy don't you think??
ReplyDeleteThat's interesting, Anonymous. What artwork are you referring to because I didn't see it?
ReplyDeleteI'm assuming you are not referring to the blonde avatar.
ReplyDeleteIf by blonde avatar you mean the artwork used on this woman's blog then, yes, that is what I am referring to. I know Kirsten did not have blonde hair, but this image does resemble some of the photos I've seen of her - especially the eyes. In any case, it is most definitely an image that has no resemblance whatsoever to B.P. herself. Wonder if she'll ever be happy with who she is.
ReplyDeleteI don't see the likeness between the art work and Kirsten, but I respect your opinion.
ReplyDelete'Wonder if she'll ever be happy with who she is.'
I think she used that picture to throw people off from who she really is. I'm sure she's very pleased with herself that she killed Kirsten, though.
Sarah, she killed a girl, let the blame rest on innocent people, and went on like it was nothing. Don’t matter if Kirsten ( was a bully), she didn’t deserve to die. I doubt she’s changed at all. She’d do it again if “given a chance“.
ReplyDeleteKirsten was (Conceited and cocky) but hardly a bully. She was like any other ordinary girl. I do hear Bernadette is suffering from depression, is it cause people know her identity? Can’t blame anyone but her, she made that choice. Bernadette was soft spoken and quiet and the last person you would expect to even commit a crime, especially murder. People were never really the same after that, it was hard enough dealing with Kirsten’s death,but finding out Bernadette ( one of the Clique) that was highly trusted and so much fun did it, it was like they lost another person. Miramonte was never the same again after all that. Senior Year was bittersweet for the friends of Kirsten and Bernadette’s. It was enjoyed but not like it could of been. Some were glad to get out of there cause of the memories.
ReplyDeleteKirsten was more Snoody than a “bully”. It was still a horrible time for her (friends and family), first dealing with the tradgedy, then finding out it was one of thier friends who did it, a girl they trusted and was fun to be around, it was like they lost another friend for good. Trust was shattered, and Senior Year was “ bittersweet for her friends and the other students. Bernadette I hear suffers from depression. Well who would care.
ReplyDeleteSorry didn’t realize my other Comment didn’t make it, disregard this last comment. Infact remove it.
ReplyDeleteyou whack job millenials and your phony need for an old cause. you weren't even alive nor lived there when it happened, try being a person who went to school with them both, whatta nitwit, get a clue, get some real facts and unless you knew them both shut the f*ck up, you aren't doing justice for anyone especially when you don't know shit. - a former classmate of both.
ReplyDeleteI knew them both. I lived on Tahos rd.
ReplyDeleteActually off Tahos Rd. The case is old now. Bernadette isn’t anywhere to be found. Kirsten’s friends still get together from time to time and have dinner and reunions, Some of the friends have moved on and want to just put all this aside and go on with their lives. Most are married with kids now.
ReplyDeleteBernadette just wrote a email on another site saying she asked forgiveness from the Costas family and they forgave her. Kelly Fuller the girl she murdered in Australia Jessica Lange, Jessica’s mom went to visit Kelly and said she forgave Kelly. Not impossible the Costas forgave Bernadette, they may have, I don’t know, Mrs Costas is the forgiving type, and she probably would rather just let it go then hold a forever grudge, but I don’t think she would have Bernadette over for dinner sometime to eat. Bernadette supposedly sends her money. Bernadette was dealing with mental issues and low self esteem cause she had to struggle harder than Kirsten and her friends to receive popularity. I thought Bernadette was popular but it didn’t co e naturally to her as it did Kirsten and her friends. Also Bernadette couldn’t get the guys to notice her, that part was true, but she was so quiet and shy they didn’t notice she was there, Still no excuse for her to murder. It’s been way to long now and time to go on with life elsewhere. Kirsten wouldn’t want you to be mad still I’m sure.. If the family forgave her good. At the trial. Ran Costas was glaring g at her so bad that if Bernadette got near her she would of mauled Bernadette alive, that is how Mrs. Costas looked and so did her husband. Peter the Son I’m sure he don’t like Bernadette, neither do Art and Berit, they probably just want peace and to move on. As I said, I’m sure they wouldn’t invite her to supper or go out to dinner and a movie with her, and if she does send them money they accept it but won’t let her over I’ll bet, and I bet they do t like her still, just don’t hate as bad. Michelle Avila her mom died and she went to her grave holding a grudge against Karen Severson and Laura Doyle. Like I said, some forgive some don’t.
ReplyDeleteWow just watched as an adult Bernadette should be in jail forever.
ReplyDeleteHow scary that psycho killer walks among us. She should have served life in prison. I hope the family received every penny that she earned throughout her work life. What a disgusting repulsive scumbag. And why did she do it? Obviously unrelenting jealously because she was not pretty and popular and accomplished like the victim but was and will always be a complete loser and absolute MONSTER!!!
ReplyDeleteGod bless beautiful Kirsten Costas.
