Son's killers 'had to have been very angry people'

More details here in interview with family.
"They had to have been very angry people. You just don't stab somebody multiple times and them put them in the trunk of a car and drive them somewhere and light the car on fire," she said.

She admitted her son "was troubled in some areas," but she made him laugh. He battled a heroin addiction but the family said he'd recently gotten clean. He was excited about living life.
