Miranda Corsette: Florida Teen Lured on Social Media, Killed and Dismembered
In a tragic and harrowing case, 17-year-old Miranda Corsette from Florida was lured through social media, kidnapped, and subsequently murdered and dismembered. The grim discovery was made in St. Petersburg, where Steven Gress and Michelle Brandes have been charged with her murder.
According to reports, Miranda was last seen in late February before her disappearance was reported. Investigations revealed that she was enticed through social media platforms, a tactic used by the perpetrators to bring her to a location where she was killed. The brutality of the crime shocked the community, with St. Petersburg Police working tirelessly to piece together the events leading to her death.
Steven Gress and Michelle Brandes, the accused, are currently in custody. Michelle Brandes surrendered to the police after a warrant was issued for her arrest. The case has sparked a broader discussion on the safety of minors on social media and the need for stricter online protections.
The community and Miranda's family are left mourning the loss of a young life, with many calling for justice and changes to prevent similar tragedies in the future.
