When I heard the description of how he stabbed his own daughter in the eyes, I just figured that he is truly a devil in the strictest sense...
I am also wondering how the parents of the other little girl feel about the Hobb's mother letting him live there--I guess she must have thought she was safe, but how could she after being chased with a chainsaw?
I just think I would be very bitter, especially if I didn't know about his past, so I could make the decision whether my child could play with her....
She must have kept the shovel near by.
"...then grabbed a chain saw and chased neighbors until someone hit him in the back with a shovel..."
