The leadership said they were only informed of ims and/or e-mails that requested pictures and seemed a little odd, at which time the parents asked that the contact stop. I am confident the parents were well aware of the graphic content and withheld it, only providing a basic overview, probably to protect their son because he was mutually graphic. How or why they have become public now is a mystery.
When I view the situation, I think they became public now because of politics...
