Kid had a rough childhood. That's really sad that his dad fractured his skull when he was a baby, and then the father committing suicide - that had to have been very emotional for EN. I'm not dismissing EN's actions however, although I do see how it could have shaped his thinking. If he gets convicted these facts will certainly come into play during mitigating his sentence.
And the dad had a cocaine/drug problem and a temper problem as well. So life was probably a bit rough for EN growing up. I am not excusing him, or his violent actions, just trying to understand him a little better. Trying to understand why he seemed to turn against those who tried to help him. But I guess that is just DRUGS talking.
