Well, this officially seals the case against CP. His only hope was the gun belonging to MG; this blows up his insane self defense scenario, not that it really needed any more blowing up.

Step mom.
Admitted to it being her gun that was usd.

In the presser the spokesperson said that RP and this women (MR) were seen on video leaving the house in the truck and when the truck returns RP, CP and MR all get out of the truck. No mention of the KIA being there. What does that tell you about where the killings may have occurred????

I'm glad someone in the Neighborhood had a camera.
I think in the Presser it was said the murders occurred close to the residence.

I know it's harder to turn your own child in but I do wonder if, as step mum, she will make a deal that seals CP's case

Wednesday, police said Romanos was seen on surveillance video assisting in the attempts to hide the bodies.

She will likely be offered a plea deal to turns States Witness. All charges against her will be dismissed or reduced to Misdemeanor charges in exchange for her cooperation and testimony against CP and RP. No jail time, maybe probation.

Arrest could be ensure the DA has an Ace in the deck.

Surprised RP hasn't been charged with Tampering with his towel wipe caught on camera.

In the linked KSAT 12 video, posted by me up thread, the step-mom MR said that "the night this happened she was sleeping and it was her gun."

I do believe the parents were asleep when the killing happened then woke up and went to help when called upon.

It comes as no surprise, as I was insisting, that someone was in the backside of that truck. However, I worried that it was a young child, and didn't expect it to be the stepmother. Wow, a 4 minute crime, and somehow the whole family is willing to help CP. Something bothers me about it happening so fast, and then the willingness of CP's family members decisions to help with the clean-up. Oh, some say the parents were asleep when the killings happened, but they wasted no time in covering up what seems like planned lie in wait murders.

I guess stepmom felt she had to help out because lo and behold it was her gun that killed SS and MG. Ugh, I don't like seeing pride at your whole family throwing gang signs. Was CP a spoiled child? All MOO

SOME reporters were initially saying she’s his mother. The policewoman at the press briefing didn’t seem absolutely certain. She said, “She is believed to be….. um….I’m not sure exactly what the relationship is……but maybe a stepmother to 19 year old Christopher.”

I just went back and watched to make sure I quoted her properly.

<modsnip>

Crazy that a step mom would do this! I mean crazy anyone would do this, but especially a step mom. I hope that makes sense. I’m not justifying covering up a murder. But you know what i mean

They must have jumped out of bed awful quick. The time frame is so crazy I don't know how they had time to even ask what's going on.

he must have shot them then called his dad and said meet at the apartment complex and they went in pjs. They might not have been asleep. Maybe just lying in bed watching tv.
