Paolilla was diagnosed with alopecia disease when she was in Kindergarten due to which she lost her hair, eyebrows, and eyelashes, and she started wearing wigs at a very early age. She wore thick glasses due to poor vision. She was the victim of abuse due to her looks when she was in school.
Paolilla moved to Clear Lake City, Texas with her mother and brother when she overcame her drug addiction.

They were joined by Rachael Koloroutis, Tiffany’s boyfriend Marcus Precella, and Marcus’s cousin Adelbert Sanchez. As Paolilla confessed, she and Snider had planned to steal the drugs from Tiffany’s home.

Stanley Justin Rott’s Family Net Worth
Stanley has been away from the media since the notorious incident, as such his wealth is yet to be reviewed. Since Paolilla has been in prison for most of her life, there is very little information about her wealth. Most of what she earned before she was arrested in July 2006 was from illegal activities and thefts. Paolilla bought an apartment from a $360,000 trust fund left to her by her father. Many crime documentaries have been made on the killings including Deadly Women, 20/20, Snapped, Redrum, Forensic Files, and Killer Kids.
