This is a pretty messed up deal. Happened 20 miles from my house. This kid never had a chance in this life. My daughter went to school with him in middle school
His mother has been arrested multiple times for everything from theft to possession with intent to distribute meth. She left the household several years ago, leaving the kid with his worthless father. The father has been evicted from his residence 3 times in the last handful of years. Dude doesn’t work, just sells drugs.
He has beaten the boy and his ex wife since my daughter has known him. This isn’t a case about taking away guns, this is a case about mental and physical abuse. If he was going to shoot anyone, should have been his dad. Probably would have been justified.
