This whole case sounds "weird". No reason WHY he shot them in the first place? Would not the boy have some gun powder residue on his hands or clothes...

Would not the angle of the shot say something? The "blood" on the boy if he touch the father would not be the same as "splatter" from a shot...something''s weird.

I do not know if the boy is guilty or innocent but we are DEFINATELY missing some pertiant information.

After listening to the interview for a few minutes, I have a hard time believing this kid killed his Daddy, and another man.

Not saying he did, or didn''t. Just hard to imagine that he did.

I''m wondering if someone is coaching the kid on what to say so he is not convicted of murder. If a lawyer is coaching him that is one thing, but if a lawyer or another adult is telling him to lie that is a crime. I don''t see how he could have confessed to the murders and then said this as well.

GUILTY, now execute him and let''''s get on with the next story about some sniveling brat who kills his parents or suicides because a fake myspace "boy" breaks up with her.

NEXT!

Chilling story, pure S. King with the exception that apparently this one came from the mind of a third grader and is sadly non fiction.

" 3TV is not releasing the boy''s name because he has not been formally charged.

Police say the boy shot his father Vincent Romero and "

Well... we KNOW his last name is Romero so OOPS I guess they slipped up!

I think there is a very great deal we don''t know about this case -- and we won''t know until the gag order is lifted.

So which is it? The boy found the bodies or did he actually *** and reload several times while shooting the men? I had heard that he actually called to Tim Romans to come back into the house after he shot his father. by whose account? His statement that he was "circling the block a few times" after he got off the school bus is a bit telling, though.
