Many people unfortunatlty choose to include drugs in their lives but still don't resort to putting people on fire. It is surprising that people (friends and family of the guy who claim to know how she was) would even mention her supposed alcoholism or less than perfect behavior, what does it have to do with being murdered..! This guy was sick no matter how you look at it AND WHAT HE DID WAS WRONG. People defending him should be ashamed of themselves and in my eyes rotting behind the same bars that he is right now.</p> Being an alcoholic or not being an angel does not mean you deserve to be murdered.

The guy was a pretty good guy growing up but got involved in drugs and met her when they were both seeking help for their addictions. Unlike the pictures seem to portray in their thousand words. She wasn't the angel that the glamourshots like photo may lead you to believe, she was an alcoholic. The way he killed her was most likely a simple action of opportunity while in a rage. If you want to start analyzing statistics be sure to look at what the percent of domestic violence happens to couples struggling with addiction. She certainly never deserved to even have a hand laid on her let alone such a terrible experience, but this wasn't some rough white guy killing and angel sent from heaven or race related. I know she was somebody's daughter and maybe a very wonderful person most of the time.</p> <p>What we need to learn from this is to fight drugs any way we can as a community, as a species. To keep our kids form getting caught in this terrible trap so they don't become the next perpetrator of this type of crime or so they don't hang around these type of people and become victims of their actions.</p> <p>I support both families because if both children had not become addicted they'd be with us living decent lives right now.</p> <p>Marjuana isn't the first drug......it's cigaretts and alcohol. Stop them early and set a good example, you might not think they are listening but they are. And especially if you are a neighbor parent. Take a second to tell a neighborhood kid what you really like about them and be there for them when they are at odds with their own parents. You'd be amazed at how powerful your words of encouragement can be.</p> Hey all you know it alls trying to analyze this case.

What we need to learn from this is to fight drugs any way we can as a community, as a species. To keep our kids form getting caught in this terrible trap so they don’t become the next perpetrator of this type of crime or so they don’t hang around these type of people and become victims of their actions.

I support both families because if both children had not become addicted they’d be with us living decent lives right now.

Marjuana isn’t the first drug……it’s cigaretts and alcohol. Stop them early and set a good example, you might not think they are listening but they are. And especially if you are a neighbor parent. Take a second to tell a neighborhood kid what you really like about them and be there for them when they are at odds with their own parents. You’d be amazed at how powerful your words of encouragement can be.

That seems about right, based on the average endurance of men. ;)

(Yes, I really can bring the stupid to bear on any discussion, no matter how serious)

I recommend the Spice channel. That should hold a guy’s interest for a significant amount of time.

Tell him that you’re out of gravy and need to go to the grocery store. Don’t come back.

Yeah, it’s just that easy. Because there is absolutely no way he could track you down if you left. Good grief.
