Two 13-year-old Wisconsin boys have been charged with first degree murder for the brutal slaying of one boy's great-grandmother, whom they allegedly bludgeoned with a hammer and hatchet before robbing her spare change and going out for pizza.
Both boys, Antonio D. Barbeau and Nathan J. Paape, were charged Friday as adults in the death of Barbeaus great-grandmother, 78-year-old Barbara J. Olson, prosecutors said.
In a crime that was both gruesome and callous, the boys are accused of going to Olsons Sheboygan, Wis., home on Sept. 17 to get some money, the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reported

Were these boys on doctor ordered psychotropic drugs?
12 seconds!
Axe murderers do seem to run in families at times, some sort of heritable psychological defect I suppose. It can also be bred out. I have two in my lines, way back, seventeenth century. A few in the eighteenth century could have been characterized as prone to manias, but it led to accomplishments that were fairly impressive for that time and place, rather than blunt head trauma for some unfortunate individual.
These two were unrelated, though they look like bookends. Acting out the same, looking the same, they were closer than we know, and the crazy might run pretty deep. There may be another reason for killing the great grandmother of the one as a result. Maybe she disapproved of something.
Those “pouty mouths” should come real handy in prison.. I hope they’re both raped senseless. Serves them right.
Kids these days are so spoiled.
They need a haircut.......and a severe beating.......
Watch for updates. Your suspicions may well be upheld.
A Clockwork Sheboygan?
These two will be the perfect candidates for that “... civilian national security force thats just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded. /s
People who have children out of wedlock and then keep the baby. Go for a couple generations of that and Viola, Lord of the Flys. There is no race that is immune.
We think alike.
Wow, that was my first thought, too. You worry me, man.
“We’re going to see a lot of this stuff because we’ve got young men being raised who have not only never had fathers, but no grandfathers, either. I wonder if these two fit that bill. “
She was in her 80’s so I doubt it. More than likely she was a widow. All my grandmothers and great grandmothers (yes I had them) were widows when they died. Had one great grandmother that died at 93 having outlived three husbands!!
Is that you Dad? ;)

This is a horrific statement.
These kids should get a maximum sentence, and in my book, the death penalty should be given to cold blooded murderers like this.
HOWEVER: The People and the State should have the courage to sentence them to death, not to use other prisoners to torture them.
Our forefathers left the webs of Europe and Asia to escape totalitarian torture. Do not make it justifiable when there is no courage to do the right thing.
Don't fight it, man.
Boy toys!
They have vacant-looking eyes. Both have “idiot” written all over their faces.
I vote execute. Quickly, cleanly, like we put down rabid dogs. I don’t care if they are “only” 13. By 8 you should know this is wrong. If you don’t, well... we should make it quick.
Agree - execute them.
Very likely. I would guess a combo of Prescription Amphetamines or Anti-Depressants. Of course if the Police drug test the boys and find any small amount of Marijuana in their systems that will be blamed.
