A good home, his mother calls it, with two working parents who believed in the value of education and the power of after-school activities to keep kids from hunting down trouble. Their belief that you could delegate raising your children to the government and a bunch of hired hands appears to have worked out like it usually has. Maybe this two income thing Really does have a cost not measured in money. Imagine.

The parents watched this behavior over eight years and did not stop it and did not remove the child from that environment. I feel very little sympathy for them today.
And an officer is dead.
I have very little sympathy for the parents of the killer.
