Looks like your son paid in full, Dad

You want someone to pay for it, Dad? How about you for raising a miscreant douchebag for a child?

Until he said that, I felt sorry for the Dad. His son was being a punk and got exactly what he deserved. If he was my son I would be absolutely heartbroken and wondering where I had failed. I sure would not be mad at the innocent victim who did exactly what he had a right to do.

I hate to hear of a death so young, but I love stories where the thug gets it in the end. Don't you just love the other guy getting a murder charge for the death of his friend. That's justice if the father thinks about it.

Still charge Veliz with 2nd degree murder.

No, there’s still a balance due: THE OTHER PERP who will almost certainly hook up with another criminal pal and do this again.

If I had robbed someone at that age my father would have beat me half to death with a 2X4, drug what was left of me to the cop shop himself and turned me in. My father had Honor and insisted that I live an honest and honorable life as well.
Like father like son. The father in this demonstrates his total lack of Honor or knowing right from wrong. In this case it is generational. He passed his ways on to his son and it got his son killed. I guess he wants us to believe that as long as his kid works hard in the day time he has free run to be a punk and criminal at night. The Oakland streets are a little safer tonight and I'm grateful for that.
