His parents are saying to lay off it was a robbery gone bad but now I think someone got to the parents and told them to shut up or else.
As another FReeper said a few days ago:
"Murder is a crime against society, not against the parents of the victim. Prosecutors do not suspend a case because the victim's parents want to drop the matter."
Sorry I don't remember the name of the FReeper who made this excellent comment.
Which totally reminds me of Chris Stevens’ mother saying basically the same thing.
Just like Mary Jo Kopechne’s parents were as quiet as little church mice after Teddy killed their daughter.
