The 15-year-old was charged with two counts of murder and three counts of child abuse for the Saturday slayings, the Bernalillo County Sheriff’s Department said. In a social media profile, Nehemiah called himself a ‘fun loving guy.’
The New Mexico 15-year-old accused of fatally shooting his parents and three innocent siblings constantly wore camouflage gear, neighbors said after the murders rocked the tiny town in the outskirts of Albuquerque.
Nehemiah Griego was "fairly quiet, not real rowdy that we could tell,” neighbor Jerry Crites told
CBS affiliate KRQE in Albuquerque. “He seemed to be just a normal kid walking up and down the road.”

The Bernalillo County Sheriff’s Department says Griego used multiple weapons, including a military-type assault rifle, when he allegedly gunned down his family Saturday night in rural South Valley, just outside Albuquerque.
Cops say he shot his pastor dad, Greg Griego, 51; his father's wife Sara Griego, 40; and three of their children: a 9-year-old boy, Zephania Griego, and daughters Jael Griego, 5, and Angelina Griego, 2.

I din’t know if all this is true, but I thought I would throw it out there. I found it on a blog in response to gun control. Here it is.
Yes they were all mentally deranged, but they were also progressive liberal Democrats.
Ft Hood mass murderer: Registered Democrat and outspoken Muslim
Columbine mass murderers: They were too young to vote, but both of their families were registered Democrats, and progressive liberals
Virginia Tech mass murderer: Wrote hate mail to President Bush, and to his staff; a registered Democrat
Colorado Theater mass murderer: Registered Democrat; staff worker on the Obama campaign; Occupy Wall Street participant; progressive liberal
Sandy Hook mass murderer: Registered Democrat; hated Christians
It occurs to me that we should join the current hysteria; the evidence shows that all registered Democrats should be confiscated. We know who they are- ~ they’re registered!
Why is it that not one of the disturbed and evil men who steal guns, then go and kill movie-goers and children in school, has ever been identified as a conservative NRA member
Tragic any death, man, woman, child at the hands of another. The news that someone guns down 5, 18, 26 or 100 is sickening. Everyday at the hands of another there are deaths by vehicle by someone with no weapon except the car that he/she is legally or illegally driving under the influence of a legal or illegal substance. So how does alcohol or marijuana law keep this individual from this killing spree. How many everyday? It’s not the gun nor the vehicle it is the perpetrator. Get it right people!
Oops, this is the local paper article, the NY Daily News says she was the shooter’s mom. I tend to put more credence in the local papers with these kind of events. Other posters are saying there were two families involved here.

I wouldn't call "walking up and down the road", normal. He probably spent a lot of time watching "wall to wall" cable new coverage of other massacres and just wanted a piece of the action.
Why not? Kids around here do it all the time, including my own daughter.
Look, I'm not saying the kid was normal, but walking up and down the road is not a sign of abnormality.
two families, 10 children
Where did you read that? Everything that has been reported said that they had 10 children together...not blended families.
"military-type assault rifle",
"assault rifle",
"Rifle".
Is he photographing himself? What does he have in his hand?
IOW, this will turn out to be a radical leftist teen from a broken home who murdered his conservative family — but covered as the tragic result of the 2nd Amendment and homeschooling.
Thanks Zakeet.
***Bastards just had to get that Home schooled in there as if it had anything to do with what happened!!***
Hey don’t laugh! My wife’s cousin home schooled her kids and they all turned out to be bad. Druggies, alkies, theives.
But then, they would probably have been worse if thy had gone to public school in that area.
Thankfully they all live 1000 miles from me!
I can’t speak for your wife’s cousin but a lot of kids who are listed as home schooled are kids who have been removed from public schools because of their behavior. The parents removed them because they were spending so much time having to appear in conferences or court.The schools often present this to the parent as a way of ending the ordeal!!
“He will get his name and picture spread through out the world.”

That about sums it up.

“I am BT. I’m the guy they’re after — 100 percent.”
“I feel like I’m a star right now.”
BTK stands for “Bind, Torture and Kill,” a style the killer used. He used the initials “BTK” in letters he sent to local media. This was a nickname the killer gave himself.
“I just put it in one of the first letters. I’m always surprised I put it up there first. I think it was just — Bind, Torture, Kill. Now I had a label on me. It was like the ‘Green River Killer’ and “Son of Sam” and a whole slew of others stuff—’The Boston Strangler.’ “

“A note he left at a crime scene read, in part: “I am a monster. I am the ‘Son of Sam.’” Berkowitz sent several more notes, one to a reporter. “

“He was never caught, even though he sent a total of 21 letters to local newspapers, revealing details about the murders only the killer could know, enclosing in some envelopes swatches of cloth snipped from one of his victims, and signing off “Zodiac.” “
“November 1888 in London, he identified himself as “Jack the Ripper.” A subsequent letter included part of a kidney that he said came from one of his victims. In that letter he wrote, “Catch me when you can.” “

“A man killed four people in a bid to carry out a “campaign of murder” and become a famous serial killer, the Old Bailey has been told.
Daniel Gonzalez, from Woking, Surrey, set out to murder at least 10 people in an area stretching from the south coast to London, the court heard. “

“The jury was told how the 24-year-old engineer idolised the dictators Hitler, Stalin, and Saddam Hussein, as well as Henry Lee Lucas, an American serial killer. He said he wanted to get caught because that would make him famous, the court heard.
Copeland told officers that he felt sad about one of his victims, Andrea Dykes, because she had a baby. “
****************************************
“The notion that mass murder is motivated by the desire to “go down in infamy” or to achieve some kind of sensationalistic, news media coverage is known as the “Herostratos Syndrome” (Borowitz 2005). “
This condition of “fantastic thinking” bears a close resemblance to the delusional aspects of paranoid schizophrenia where the person envisions themselves as being a superstar. Culture plays a role in this by encouraging the superstar aspiration. The only good deterrent for such a thing is to deny such people access to the history books. A long, long time ago, one of the world’s first historians told a story about a person who burned down one of the seven wonders of the world (the Temple of Diana) so that “his name shall live forever.” The historian’s account went like this: “I know his name, but will not write it.”

Did you ever stop to think that maybe Mr Griego’s 1st wife may have died? It does happen. Too damn many of you on this forum are quick to judge people without the facts.
Lets do the math. The father was a pastor, right off the bat he is a religious wacko. Conservative, we all know how they are completely off the nut. And of course with him being homeschooled, there must have been something the family was trying to hide.(I hope I don't need to add the /sarc tag)
Now compare that with their population. Libtards with the morals of minks.
Or ‘hoodies’.
Waiting for the list of meds he was on.
