Why am I having a hard time believing they acted alone ? Are 13 year olds really capable of this type of gruesome crime ? I have a 13 year old. and the boys in that age group can't even manage to keep their sneakers tied. Many of you know what I am talking about. They are cute, awkward, tongue-tied around the girls.What lead these two who committed this crime to be so very different from the 13 year olds I am familiar with ? Yeah, I know, a hard childhood, etc. WHO is responsible for them ?? :maddening:
Children this age are very capable of carrying out the most horrendous crimes. Some dont even need help and act alone.
There have been kids as young as 8 who have committed premeditated murders and afterward covered up their crimes by going on with life as usual.
I have seen some of these child killers on shows like Dateline etc when it was many years later after they had committed their crimes.
None that I have seen showed one bit of remorse. In fact most of them interviewed that I have seen said they dont even think about their victims anymore even though they were their own mother, father, and some killed their siblings too along with their parents or grandparents.
So yes I do believe 13 year olds and much younger are capable of carrying out crimes like this. I have read countless cases over the years where they did this. They dont just act in a spur of the moment. They are calculating killers.....many of them lay in wait and then lie and make up a story trying to cover their crimes.
Most of the cases I have read about in the recent years has one common denominator. The kid killed because they wanted something such as these kids or they murdered simply because they did not like to adhere to the rules set forth by their parents or were grounded for misbehavior and had one of their 'toys' taken away such as computers, x-box etc.
It all comes down to what they want and a certain group of kids when they are denied will murder to get it. Others plot to murder when they are dared told 'No' about something they wanted or wanted to do.
These murderers are the most frightening of all murderers imo.
IMO
