Sadly as I said this guy is a professional criminal and decided no witnesses was best.

No one sympathizes with this guy here. But it's not hard to see what happened in this case with the available evidence.

It was an overreaction on my part. I thought you were being nonchalant.

1st Degree on the Grandparents
2nd Degree on Nathan

Enough with this ignorant garbage.

Horrible for the family. I can't imagine. I hope they can find the bodies as soon as possible because I imagine without them the family would always have a hope that they will be found alive despite what the evidence says.

Rest in peace little guy.

maybe i missed it earlier in this thread, but does this have any ties to any organized crime group?

This guy is very articulate.

I can't believe that question was even asked.

God I hate the media at times like these. Such vultures.

Because an irrational act doesn't require mental illness.

The Ultimate innocence of a child, selfishly taken. Nothing can justify that.

Be in peace little man.

I don't necessarily want to fire up the debate and am happy to split it off to a new thread but it needs to be called for what it is.

Ugh just awful rest in peace

Relax...I realize mental health has a broad spectrum. There is no ignorance intended there. Let's not derail this thread, just let it go if you didn't like the comment.

Absolutely devastating for the family, really hope the bodies are found soon.

[terminator]

Crazy world.

[Parallex]

This is awful awful news. I hope the police have a strong case and can find the remains without needing to cut a deal.

Just so senseless and wrong.

You could have just glossed over it you know - everyone else did, agreeing with it or not. We've already had multiple mental illness threads we don't need more.
