"As of Saturday, Crime scene tape still surrounds Cranston’s home on Main Street in Corry. JET 24/FOX 66’s Jennifer Mobilia spoke with a woman who said Cranston was her foster dad growing up."
and
"Cranston’s daughter believes the murder was a case of mistaken identity. She added the Amish couple who lived in Byler’s home a few years ago adopted Cranston’s grandson.
“Supposedly she started yelling at him, coming in, then that’s when boom, all it took. It’s just horrifying to think that,” she continued."
The daughter quoted in the article identifies herself as his former foster child, who is now a young adult. So this guy was a foster parent? As a long time foster parent myself that just makes me roll my eyes...of course he was.
Maybe the "grandson" was in suspect's home as a foster situation (even if there is biological ties). And when the grandson was adopted out, the suspect took it personally.
ETA: Or perhaps that the grandson was adopted out INSTEAD of being placed in his home)
I believe as others have already stated, we will learn of substance abuse or mental health playing a part in this.
