We, the comrades of Unit 1012, will honor and remember 9-year-old Paula Bohovesky on January 1 and October 28 every year.  

We, the comrades of Unit 1012: The VFFDP, will make her one of The 82 murdered children of Unit 1012, where we will not forget her. Let us remember how she lived and not how she died. We will always support her family members.

“She was beautiful inside and out. She was your friend — instantly. She just made you happy to be in the room with her.”

— Sharon Klass, former teacher of Paula Bohovesky

The details of Paula’s murder were brutal.

Shortly after 7 p.m., the teen left her part-time job at the library and walked through the center of town toward her home on Hunt Avenue. She was within one block of her parents’ house when LaBarbera and McCain – both of whom had been drinking at the High Wheeler bar nearby – noticed her crossing an intersection.

McCain quickly caught up to Paula and crushed the right side of her skull with a chunk of pavement he grabbed from the ground. He then dragged her behind an abandoned home and sexually assaulted her, while LaBarbera watched, according to police.

Believing that the teen was dead, LaBarbera then tried to sexually assault her, investigators said. When she stirred, to his surprise, LaBarbera stabbed her with a knife five times in the back, killing her, police told Fox News.
