Season of Teen Violence: A 14-year-old charged with killing a 24-year-old Maths Teacher

Hours after the murder of a teacher at Sparks Middle School, Navada by a student,  a 14-year-old Danvers High School student has again been charged with the recent gruesome murder of a mathematics teacher, Collen Ritzer in the suburbs northeast of Boston.

Authorities had been looking for the student, Philip Chism, first, after he was reported missing with police sending out messages via Twitter and Facebook on Tuesday evening, noting he'd last been seen around 6:30 p.m. and asking for the public's help in finding him.

According to Essex County District Attorney, Jonathan Blodgett they got a call around 11:20 p.m. about another missing person, 24-year-old Collen Ritzer, after she, too, hadn't returned home and was not answering her phone.

Around 12:30 a.m, Police in Topsfield, the town just north of Danvers, spotted Chism walking alongside a busy road. This prompted authorities to converge in Danvers High School where Ritzer taught and which Chism attended and the sight of blood in the second-floor bathroom stared at them in the face. They traced the blood to the  teacher's body dumped behind the school.

Chism was tied to Ritzer's death after police interviewed him and reviewed video surveillance from the school.

In court, it was alleged the teenager "did assault and beat" Ritzer, leading to her death.
