I would stand by my child too until their guilt was proven.


I give them a little leeway for the simple reason this is a shocking, horrible, terrible, unexpected situation they find themselves in and maybe this is shock and confusion talking. How would any of us react under these dreadful circumstances?


I agree. Their son is denying it, he was at least right now high functioning in a phD program and they are his parents. They probably truly believe it’s some horrible mistake at this point. Not much has been released so they don’t fully know or understand the evidence. As a parent I can imagine being in deep denial in a situation like this


I truly doubt that parents and close relatives/friends of mass killers have never seen a single red flag.

Perhaps see something, say something.
Apparently, one of the bars he went to, observed that he said things that were highly inappropriate and creepy. So every time they scanned his ID, they saw notes made: to keep an eye on him.
When a kid says some adult (teacher, coach, neighbor, relative, whoever) is weird or creepy, you need to listen up.

People who knew him might not be that shocked at all. Law enforcement is in the midst of interviewing many people to get a picture of his mindset.

If he in fact he went right back to classes immediately after the murders, I would find that astonishing... to plop right back into class like nothing just happened. That would take a special kind of evil.

I interpret “standing by him” as remaining his parents, since that is not a job responsible people quit. Seeing what he needs in prison, helping him through the trial. It has nothing to do with condoning his actions or helping him escape justice.


That’s basically the gist of their statement. I wish people would stop pulling quotes out of context.


If I was a defense attorney, this is exactly what I would advise them to put out to the media.

Yup. They lumped themselves in with the parents of those their son murdered, in cold blood. GTFOH.

He likely is incredibly disassociated from the event. So to me it wouldn’t be that shocking. That ability to compartmentalization and disassociate is probably one reason he could commit the crimes.

How did they “lump themselves in”? That’s a big stretch. They are not wailing about “losing a son” or anything like that.

What is his motive? It seems so odd to kill 4 people. It is creepy that he was a phd student in criminal justice.

Jealousy.

They have a life that he will never have - especially now.
