He has an older sister, raised (obviously) the same way. Should we lock her up in anticipation of what she might do?

He took his AK-47 to the woods that day intending to kill someone.

"Detective Sgt. David Hopkins described Boatman as a “sociopath” during the press conference."

"Boatman allegedly had a conversation with an acquaintance, indicating that he had killed someone, according to the arrest report."

"The report stated Boatman allegedly said to his friend, “I wouldn’t kill a bum because they would have nothing to lose. I went out there and came across two preppy kids and killed them.”

I was talking to a friend of mine about her foster brother, who came to their family at the age of ten and had a similar childhood to Boatman’s. He had some troubles but he overcame them.

My m-i-l was abused and neglected in foster care and pulled herself up to become a physician - American movies in the fifties were her lodestar to a better life. American movies today wouldn’t take you there. My m-i-l’s early life scarred her in some ways, but she CHOSE good actions even if the emotions weren’t always there.
