The father of a 17-year-old exchange student shot dead in Montana departed the U.S. on Thursday after criticizing the nations gun culture and arranging for his sons body to be flown back to Germany.
Celal Dede flew out of Missoula after securing the release of Diren Dedes body, which was transported from Montana on Wednesday afternoon, German consulate spokeswoman Julia Reinhardt said.
Before he departed, Celal Dede told the German news agency DPA that he had never imagined his son could be shot for simply entering somebodys property.
America cannot continue to play cowboy, Celal Dede said.

Isn’t this the kid who was burgling a house?
There are about 120 other countries he could have chose to visit.
The dead kid was a Turk, not an ethnic German by the way.
I think the prosecutor will have a hard time finding a grand jury that will indict.
If you don’t like American Culture, then don’t send your burglarizing children here to be educated.
Yep
He was in the garage and tripped alarms.
The father is trying to make it sound like his kid was just in the man’s back yard. I do not think they take kindly to strangers traipsing around one’s back yard in Germany either, much less the garage.
You know what I don’t like? Deutschland’s anti homeschool culture.
except, he wasn't in the backyard. Note to foreign students: If you enter a building inadvertently and alarms go off, exit immediately with arms raised. Check the state and local laws of the community you wish to go to school at before you come. Don't break them and you will enjoy your stay here.
Early Sunday, the sensors went off, and Kaarma and Pflager looked at the video feed and saw that someone was in the garage.
Kaarma went outside with his shotgun. He told investigators he heard a noise that sounded ‘like metal on metal,’ and he was afraid the intruder would come out and hurt him. He said he did not see anyone in the darkened garage and did not communicate with anyone before sweeping the garage with four shotgun blasts. Dede was struck in the head and arm and died at a Missoula hospital, court records said.
Kaarma told police he fired high to avoid hitting the car in the garage - but court records showed that three of four shots were aimed low.
Unfortunately, daddy is an *sshole.
And he should have taught his dumb f*cking kid to stay out of other people’s homes.
All this and yet illegal aliens continue to pour into America like water over Niagara Falls. What’s wrong with those people? Do they have a death wish or what? We’re a bunch of “cowboys”. (Except for Harry Reid who is a horse’s ***).
Always identify your target before pulling the trigger.
Ironic that the shooter’s name was “Kaarma”...as in entering the garage was bad “karma”!
Yada, Yada, yada, blame America and it’s gun culture. There are enough guns in Germany among its citizens that this is a ridiculous statement. Morons never blame the real reason for deaths, guns are just easy.
> If you dont like American Culture, then dont send your burglarizing children here to be educated.
If he’d done a better job parenting his son wouldn’t have gotten shot because wouldn’t be stealing someone else’ $hit...: )
You would think a homeowner in Montana of all places would be safe from foreign a-holes breaking into their garage. A warning to foreigners: there are more guns and attitudes in Texas than there are in Montana. Don’t like “cowboys”? Then stay the hell out!
