That case against two men accused of planting (apparently fake) incendiary devices under media vehicles in the SLC area right after the Kirk assassination ... has been dismissed for the time being because the Utah court felt that the federal government had not supplied enough evidence to the Utah prosecutors to make the case tenable. It was dismissed without prejudice meaning it can be revived at a later date if a judge can be persuaded to reopen the prosecution.
I don’t know what might motivate anybody to plant fake incendiary devices anywhere, let alone under some TV station vehicles. Seems like a random coincidence having no real connection to the Kirk shooting or anything else really.
I would not be quick to condemn the parents in any way, they sent their son out into a society with a much different set of values upheld by most academic institutions and the peers their son would have met there, and you can only do so much before releasing your young adult offspring into the nasty world around us, I can think of several cases where exemplary parenting had little to no deterrent value once a kid got out there into the cesspool of modern society, and I can think of some fairly average parents whose kids excelled anyway. Then there is also a mental illness factor to consider and if not diagnosed during teenage years, no preparation for its onset would have taken place.
The parents certainly did one thing right, they didn’t name their kid James.
