Thank you Filly!!! Man, I was worried about those elves. Timely alert. I've heard they like mountains and here I am without a firearm. But I've got toy poodles and they will keep the elves at bay.
I'd actually forgotten this case but it's a doozy. It's also sad as child porn was collected. Shame on him!! I still can NOT get over the parents' reaction. Sniggering in court? I'm shocked the judge didn't have a word with them.
Due to some personal experiences I've had since this case first broke, I'm going to go out on a limb and say with almost total assurance that this man has Asperger's. The normal (?) intelligence, developmental/chronological disconnect, and even the wild and crazy threats point to that diagnosis for me. And this doesn't mean in any way that I think those with Asperger's are all like this guy--far from it. Just given the details we have, it's really only the thing that makes sense.
His parents might think that they've seen it all and might take all this with a grain of salt. But guns are guns and I personally don't want them in the hands of someone who is actually writing and blogging about how dang cool it would be to kill someone. I wish the neighbors would write the judge, as well as the former teachers.
Has the family garage been checked for that chainsaw?
