they lived just down the road from us, they were shunned from the start with protesters outside their house

they should be ashamed of their actions and wound up lossing their child too due to their bad decisions

His bad decisions. FTFY

the killing was on him, but lies and coverups were on them too

she was known to physically attack him and if he and his parents had come clean at the beginning it would have at least given her parents closure and he might have managed a manslaughter charge

their stupid decisions caused an innocent family much more pain and cost them their son too

they deserve everything that they got and more

Are you serious? This was not manslaughter. Even the cops said that a 110lb girl wasn't a threat to him and he was seen hitting her, not the other way. She slapped him maybe but it's funny how he never admitted to hitting her and he played up to that victim role. She should've been the one in the abuse victims hotel, not him.

I love how the police specifically call out her bruises and ignore them 2 min later, saying he’s the victim. Eh… do you not see the marks in her face and arm? Did you forget about the caller saying he was slapping her? Im glad one of them quit over the guilt, they were all terrible.

I wonder if they did it on purpose because when they're by themselves they know she's a victim .

I never said it was manslaughter

I said a good lawyer could have gotten it dropped to manslaughter

personally I think the gators eating this POS was the correct way to go

Would have been more satisfying if he didn't put the bullet in his head first.

Obviously first degree murder, but a good lawyer could get it down to manslaughter most likely.

Look up “reactive abuse”.

looked it up

just to make it clear I am not defending the piece of literal shit just saying if he had turned himself in and told the cops what happened he might have got a reduced charge and her family got closure faster

my personal views are he got what he deserved and the world is a better place without him and I hope his POS family lost everything over this

I have 2 daughters and 5 granddaughters myself and would protect them with my life
