Kirsten Costas Biography

Birthday Jul 23
Birth Year 1968

Kirsten Costas is one of the most popular and richest Student who was born on July 23, 1968 in Oakland, California, United States.

On June 23, 1984, Costas was lured with a phony invitation to a dinner for the Bob-o-Links, a sorority-like group at school. According to Protti’s later testimony, she had planned to take Costas to the party to befriend her, but Costas got angry when she was told that there was no dinner for the new “Bobbies”. The girls quarreled, and Costas fled to the home of Alex and Mary Jane Arnold, living nearby, telling them that her friend had gone “weird”. When Costas could not reach her parents by telephone, Alex Arnold drove her home, noticing that a Pinto–the Protti family’s car–was following them. At the Costas home, Arnold, sitting in his car, saw Protti attack Costas. He thought that he was seeing a fist fight, but in fact Protti stabbed Costas five times with a butcher knife and fled. The Costas’ neighbors called an ambulance, but Kirsten was mortally wounded and died at a nearby hospital.

The Costas family left Orinda and moved to Hawaii in 1986. Bernadette Protti was released from prison in 1992 at the age of 23 and reportedly left California, and changed her name to Jeannette.
