They probably took him for questioning to the police station. They do that even if the person is not under arrest. I am not sure how old his bio kids are, but they might be already out of the house.

<<Zingaro said that when he arrived at the scene shortly after the shooting, Giuliano was inconsolable and physically ill. He said Giuliano cried and vomited.

"He was in disbelief and a state of shock," Zingaro said.

Shortly after the shooting Giuliano, feared it was his son he had shot, but he didn't receive confirmation for at least several hours, Zingaro said. The fears, Zingaro said, were based on the fact that Giuliano learned his son was missing and other reasons the attorney would not discuss, citing a continuing police investigation.

Giuliano hurt his back during the shooting, Zingaro said, but he would not say how.>>
 
I think he knew in his heart that it was his son all along but his soul forced denial. Not sure what the kid was up to but I feel for the father? He went way out of his way for these kids.....their lives were formed longer before than he entered. I hold out hope for his adopted daughter!
 
How did he know it was his son? The person was masked.
It was dark, he went outside to investigate, he saw a masked person with an object (which turned out to be a knife).
Police themselves have shot people under similar circumstances.

thank you. two more things I didn't know. very strange situation, seems something is not being said. jmo
 
Ok, here's what seems a little odd for me (and I'm not passing judgement on anyone...just trying to think things out):

Sister (the aunt) had a fight with the now-deceased teen.
The now-deceased teen was outside her house and seemingly trying to break in hours later.
Sister calls her brother (and the adopted father of the now deceased teen).

*If I were the Sister (the aunt) I would have called 911 if someone was breaking in*. I would NOT have called my brother next door 'cause I would not want to risk someone else getting put in harm's way. Surely, the 911 call would have come first while I made sure I had a weapon in hand and all entrances locked down.

That being said, did the Sister perhaps suspect it was her brother's adopted son who was up to no good after their argument....maybe even subconciously suspected it could be the teen?

Maybe she was scared...between

news of this burglary in the town days prior:

Also, I mentioned this in the other thread ( crimes in the news) people in CT are pretty twisted since the Cheshire Home Invasion. I know several people who now have guns, gun permits and ( yes) have taken safety courses. I am not one of them.
:-(

I really am against guns, precisely for this reason.

I know about the Cheshire case as I lived close by there in CT, iSlueth. What I am confused about is what does that case have to do with guns----no guns were used in that crime---the parents/daughters didn't own guns so they couldn't defend themselves with guns against the intruders---the intruders didn't do their horrendous acts via murder by guns. I'm not being snarky, just don't get the reference to Cheshire case and guns???
 
Her brother lives right next to her. I don't find it surprising at all that the sister would call her brother. Police would not have arrived as quickly since he lives right next to her. We don't know their dynamics but it's quite possible she views her brother as a protector since she is a female presumably living without a male in the house? I think she also has at least one school age daughter.

I did a little searching and it appears that one of the two homes on either side of JG's home is owned by a divorced female. I agree with you on a sister calling a brother next door first. I do wonder what she did hear that woke her after 1:00 in the morning, and if there was any signs that forced entry had been attempted.

What it has to do with is: people ( particularly men!!! ) being very paranoid and afraid ( rightfully) of home invasion, and therefor preparing them selves( physically and mentally) by buying guns- and being on guard, poised, and ready to use them against any intruder. - Shoot to kill as opposed to " I am armed - drop your weapon ( knife)"
JMOO
I don't know what I think about auntie calling her brother and not 911. Could things have turned out differently? I would think there were a number of ways this horrible tragedy could have been avoided. Unless there are things about the argument, and events that night that we do not know. ( I believe there are several things we do not know )
 
It is possibly that we could be here talking about the sister or someone else in that neighborhood that was found stabbed to death. just sayin jmo
 
Well, I'm not passing judgement but my brother lives around the corner from me (as well as other family members who live around another corner from me) and maybe it's just me but I would call 911 first before any call to relatives.
Why? Because I know that I would not want to jeopardize any more of my family's lives by putting them in immediate harm's way.

But heck, that's just me but I also exercise my right to bear arms, have securtiy systems, and proper locks. MOO.
 
I wonder why his son tried to break into his aunt's home. Very tragic all around.

Jeffrey Giuliano's Computer Sought By Police In Connection To Shooting Of Masked Son
By JOHN CHRISTOFFERSEN 10/04/12 04:25 PM ET EDT

Snip

"NEW HAVEN, Conn. — An attorney for a Connecticut man who fatally shot his 15-year-old son, thinking he was an intruder, said Thursday that state police want access to a computer and phone used by the teen to try to determine why he was out at night wearing a ski mask and armed with a knife.

Gene Zingaro said his client Jeffrey Giuliano is cooperating with the request because he and his wife want the same answers."

And

"The attorney said Giuliano was aware at the time that there had been reports of a break-in and a sexual assault in the same town. He said that had even prompted Giuliano to call a family meeting to make sure his children took precautions.

"Weighing heavily on his mind was the fact that there was a forced entry rape a day or two before in New Fairfield," Zingaro said. "In my estimation, Jeff Giuliano felt like he had happened upon maybe the same intruder."

Giuliano also was concerned the person might have already been to his house, Zingaro said."

Such a sad, sad story for everyone concerned. We will probably never know Tyler's motive or any of the "what if's". As far as the aunt calling her brother next door instead of calling 911, that is common. I'm a 911 dispatcher and you would be surprised how many calls we get where the caller says "my daughter called me" or "my mom called to tell me..." It makes it hard for us because the one who calls me doesn't have all the information and sometimes is unsure of the actual address.
 
As far as calling the police, in some areas, such as Flint, MI, you can call the police with an emergency like this and it may be hours or the next day before the police arrive, if they come at all. Maybe that's why she called her brother first.
