That is not a capital crime and didn’t desrve to be murdered over it.
If the boy actually got violent over his delusion not being honored then it would have been self defense.
But they are dead and wouldn’t have been murdered if they were honest with who they were.
If a man surprises some woman with his penis, she can gun him down and walk. That’s a rapist. The sicko surprised a person with his penis... he was justified in self defense. Also if the person was that psycho, is it a big stretch to imagine it also attacked the man when he got disgusted?
Perhaps, but this will become more common.
