How anyone can get themselves into these kinds of situations is beyond my comprehension.
the sad thing is the family of the accused…i know this fellow’s mom…and knew his dad…good people…the kind of folk who are hurt to the core…it’s bad enough for the victim…and as the grand-parent of three great kids, i would be armed to the teeth to catch anyone who laid a hand on them or hurt them in any way…that said…the victims and the accused are changed by the act of someone who wasn’t keeping in touch with reality and the law and what’s right…the parents are not responsible in this case, i know that for sure…but the hurt on the families on both sides of the crime live on…
