Teen couple kills cop, then selves in suicide pact

He loved his mother. She hated her mom, and said she was a “waste of space.”

But the two Florida teenagers adored each other, dying together in a suicide pact after allegedly shooting a cop to death on a suburban Orlando street.

The bodies of Brandon Goode and Alexandria Hollinghurst were found in Windmere, Fla., about 100 yards away from the slain cop who had tried to apprehend them, authorities said.

Officer Robert German, 31, was shot dead on Saturday morning after coming across the teenage couple while on foot patrol in the Orlando suburb.

Officials said the teens had written suicide notes in the days before they died, although Hollinghurst’s mother believes Goode killed her daughter before turning the gun on himself.

But despite Jane Hollinghurst’s desire to stick up for her daughter until the very end, the feeling was certainly not mutual.

“You are a waste of space, ignorant, and a rotten c—,” Hollinghurst, 17, spewed in the note. “I wish I were never born.”

“Please understand,” she went on, “that when people compare us I vomit on the inside. ‘If I had stayed another minute I would have painted the walls and stained the carpets with my blood, so you could clean it up.’”

Goode’s note to his mom was much more gentle.

“Don’t be sad,” Goode’s note said. “This is what I want now. I get to die peacefully with the woman I love, the woman of my dreams, my fiancé (yes we’re engaged!).

”I miss you so much already. I love you mom. I love you dad.”

Officials said the lovebirds gunned German down after he approached them during a stop for suspicious behavior. Cops who arrived on the scene found German on the ground, bleeding from a gunshot wound. Then they heard two shots about a block away.

Cops said Goode, 18, had a rap sheet that included arrests for pot possession and underage drinking.

Hollinghurst was described as a habitual runaway, who had been pinched recently for shoplifting.
