The Florida high school softball star who was allegedly stabbed 15 times by her stalker ex-boyfriend revealed that she was left paralyzed from the chest down in the sickening attack, but said she’s “going to be okay.”
Madison Schemitz, 17, a rising senior at Ponte Verde High School, spoke publicly for the first time since being ambushed at a local sports bar and restaurant on June 3, allegedly by her deranged ex.
Spencer Pearson, 18, attacked her, her mom and a good Samaritan before turning the knife on himself, police said. He faces two counts of attempted premeditated first-degree murder and aggravated battery with a deadly weapon.
