Episode 33: 1990s The Deadliest Decade: The murder of Shanda Sharer

April 02, 2021 • Samantha Smith and Jeffrey Siefert

We continue with the TV series 1990s: The Deadliest Decade with Episode 2, The New Girl. Trigger warning for this episode. This is by far the most gruesome and disgusting case we've covered to date, and that is an understatement.

Shanda Sharer was an innocent 12 year old girl who fell in love with another classmate at her new school. This classmate , Amanda Heavrin, not only brought new feelings to Shanda that she never experienced before, but also made her the target for Amanda Heavrin's ex-girlfriend jealousy.

It was this jealousy that made Melinda Loveless hunt down three other girls to go along with her murder plot and carry out the brutal and heinous killing of Shanda Sharer.

This is a case that will stick with you long after you finish the episode.
