By

Abducted and murdered Virginia teen had lived a tough life, overcome a major health problems at a young age and suffered bullying, her mother said. Two Virginia Tech students have been indicted for the murder of the said teenager, after her body was recovered in North Carolina on Saturday.

According to the Guardian, the abducted and murdered teen's mother, Tammy Weeks said, her daughter, Nicole Madison Lovell, 13 was a sickly child and had undergone liver transplant, MRSA and lymphoma when she was five years old. School was also not her interest, according to Weeks since she was often called fat and being talked at because of the scars she got from the transplant.

"It got so bad I wouldn't send her," Weeks said. Nicole has been bullied on social media as well. Her daughter loved pandas and dreamed of becoming American Idol, she added. A close family friend, Davy Draper had known Nicole as "energetic and outspoken" child.

Authorities discovered Nicole's body four days after she was reported missing. Two Tech college students were accused on the murder. David Eisenhauer, 18, has been charged with first-degree murder and abduction, while the other one, Natalie Keepers, 19, faces charges of improper disposal of a body and accessory after the fact in the commission of a felony, Yahoo News reported.

Maryland high schools principals were at disbelief that their former students were involved on such crime. According to Principal James LeMon at Wilde Lake High School, he said Eisenhauer was an excellent student-athlete on track and field, had many friends and dreamed to become an engineer, Business Insider reported. While the principal at Hammond High School, Principal Marcia Leonard also said, Keepers has an interest in theater program, literary magazine and also had a passion for engineering.

Nicole had been missing since last week. Her family says she disappeared after pushing a dresser in front of her bedroom door and climbing out a window. Authorities said they located Lovell's remains in Surry County, North Carolina, just over the Virginia border. Eisenhauer and Keepers were being held without bond at the Montgomery County jail. The students appeared in court for the first time on Monday morning.
