Months before her tragic death, Brooke shared a Facebook post with the lyrics of rock band Hinder’s single Better Than Me, whose music video depicts a dysfunctional young couple at their home.

” ~I think you can do much better than me, after all the lies that i made you believe, guilt kicks in and i start to see the edge of the bed where ur nightgown used to be i told myself i wont miss you but I remember what it feels like to hold you.

“I really miss your hair in my face and the way your innocence stays and i think you should know this…. You deserve much better than me~ Better than me~ Hinder,” she ended the post.

In a second May post, Brooke shared: “I don’t wanna live without you, i don’t wanna even breath, I don’t wanna dream about you, wanna wake up with you next to me, i don’t wanna go down any other road now i don’t wanna love nobody but you.”

On Saturday, an unidentified 14-year-old boy was arrested and charged with Brooke’s murder.

Police confirmed Brooke knew her alleged killer; however, they failed to provide additional details on their relationship.

The suspect is being housed at the Long Creek Youth Development Center in South Portland.

Brooke was a seventh-grade student at Maranacook Community Middle School in Readfield, where teachers remembered her as a “resilient student”.

She was described as loving animals, especially her pet bearded dragon lizard.

Brooke’s friend, Shaley Baker, told the Portland Press Herald that she was “goofy and fun”.
