A teen sought by authorities after two of his relatives were found dead Tuesday in Acton, Massachusetts, has been charged with murder, and investigators say he was using artificial intelligence to make searches about the killing of his family, the Middlesex District Attorney's Office announced Wednesday.

Middlesex District Attorney Marian Ryan initially said Tuesday that authorities were looking for 17-year-old Arjun Aravind, who lives in the Martha Lane house and was unaccounted for after a woman and male teenager were discovered dead there just after 6:30 p.m. He was found early Tuesday morning and taken into custody in Wayland.

For those unfamiliar with Massachusetts...Acton is what I’d call a “distant” suburb of Boston...very affluent...very left wing.

According to WBUR, approx. 78-20% Harris-Trump breakdown in 2024 for that town (61-36% STATEWIDE).

Yup...that sounds about right. I did the 2020 Census and Acton was one of my assignments. Met several nice people but most houses I contacted wouldn’t talk to me. I was “quality control” so my main job was to visit homes that hadn’t responded to mailings or primary visits.

‘Arjun Aravind’

I’m guessing a direct DESCENDANT from a long and illustrious line of Massachusetts patriots?

OK, then my SECOND guess is a DEFENDANT in a murder trial. ;)

That part of Acton that he lived in has a very high proportion of Indian people living there.

"The investigation has so far shown that Arjun had recently been demonstrating some disturbing behavior including using the internet and ChatGPT to make searches for theoretical ideas or fantasy stories regarding the killing of his family," Middlesex District Attorney Marian Ryan said.

I wonder how many stories of murders among immigrant families were told 140 years ago, within the neighborhoods on NYC’s Lower East Side.
