Brunn said he chose Rivera because he happened to find her roller skate and used it to lure her to a vacant apartment, where he beat, assaulted and killed her, he told the judge. He said he asked her to touch herself and followed her to bathroom.
"I didn't want her to go home and tell her mom or dad on me. So I cut her," he told the Cherokee County judge.
The charges against Brunn are murder, aggravated assault, aggravated battery, cruelty to children in the first degree, aggravated child molestation, false imprisonment, enticing a child for indecent purposes, sexual exploitation of children, making false statements and abandonment of a dead body.
Authorities found the child's body three days after her mother reported her missing from the Canton apartment complex.
Brunn spoke softly and candidly to the judge as members of Rivera's family sat in the front row sobbing.
Police say Brunn snatched the girl as she walked from the playground to her apartment to get sodas for her friends
According to the indictment, Brunn bound Rivera's hands with plastic ties and taped a rag into her mouth before he beat her with a "hammer-like object," cut her throat and stabbed her in the chest. Authorities say Brunn also molested the girl.

He told the court he had never talked to Jorelys before the day of her murder. He said he devised a plan after he found one of her skates.
Brunn took a picture of the skate and approached her with it, asking if the skate was hers. She said yes, and Brunn promised to take her to it.
Instead, he took her to an empty apartment and instructed Jorelys to pull down her pants. He then put tape over her face and cut her throat with a razor. At this point, she was still alive, he told the court.
So Brunn took Jorelys to the bathroom and beat her to death with the skate. He said he did not have sex with the girl.LIAR
Next, Brunn put Jorelys' body in a plastic bag and loaded it into his maintenance golf cart. He put the body in the trash compactor and operated the machine. He then went home and hung out with friends. Later, he again operated the compactor.
