as one can already tell, I've been interested in cases where a (usually grown) child of a couple decides to kill them, often with the want for money. In many of those cases it is almost an exaggeration of the picture one has of a spoiled brat.
But this case interests me because it is different than one would expect. He didn't seem to exhibit the symptoms that other people who kill their parents. With Chris Porco for instance he was basically stealing their money and partying with his frat buddies. With Alan Hruby (who hasn't yet been convicted) he also was a glutton for prestige. Another motive is usually the kid doesn't get along with his parents or hates them and I don't think he hated his parents either as I don't recall hearing about much hostility between him and his parents.
One of the things the officer said to him during interrogation was that he liked his parents and wanted it to be quick and peaceful and that he felt he had no other choice since his start-ups weren't making it. Now obviously he still should never get out of prison unless he's gravely ill and near-death but it seems that unlike the archetypal parricide cases, there weren't any previous indicators or "red flags" that he would do it.
