ALTAMONTE SPRINGS, Fla. – After two girls were arrested last week in an attempted-murder investigation, Altamonte Springs police have revealed a few more details about what exactly happened.
In an arrest report, police said that Lake Brantley High School received an anonymous tip on Jan. 22 at around 11:30 p.m. via the FortifyFL website.

“The anonymous tip advised that there is a student who goes by the name Jimmy, who is planning to kill another student named [REDACTED],” the report reads.
Eventually, investigators said they were able to identify “Jimmy” as 14-year-old student Isabelle Aurelia Valdez.
The report shows that Valdez and her best friend — identified as Lois Olivios Lippert — were pulled from their classes to speak with law enforcement. Valdez denied knowing anything about the tip, police added.

However, much of the remaining report is redacted, providing little insight into what happened during the interview.
Ultimately, though, Valdez was arrested and now faces charges of attempted murder and possession of a weapon on school property. Meanwhile, Lippert is accused of being an accessory to these crimes.
After their arrests, News 6 spoke with sophomore Madeline Segarra, a student government representative at the same school.

“I just know that there was two girls involved,” student Madeline Segarra told News 6. “One girl had the knife and the note... The other girl was called out of class because her name was mentioned, I guess by the first girl. But yeah, two girls are already counted with the charge.”
Police said a note was found alongside a knife in one of the arrested girls’ bags, though police didn’t provide any details about what the note said.
Regardless, the school district released the following statement after news of the arrests came out:
“We are deeply grateful to the individual whose courageous tip allowed law enforcement to take swift action. The situation was resolved safely thanks to the seamless collaboration between our school and law enforcement partners.”
