I don't think he was advocating at all. It's easy to judge from a distance, but we are talking about parents caught in an emotional black hole of their own trying to come to grips with the fact that their son is accused of mass murder. That would blindside anyone, and it is only natural for them to speak well of their son. They are simply vocalizing what they believed before all this happened. It's really just honest, raw, emotion.
