WOW! Okay - thanks a bunch for this update!

 

[AmandaSkis]

Curious. So there was not enough/no evidence to mount an insanity defense?

 

[imstilla.grandma]

The no contest plea means Erik Metzig, 27, accepts a guilty verdict without admitting or denying his guilt.

His sentencing hearing is scheduled for 1 p.m. Oct. 30.

Investigators quickly identified Erik Metzig as the sole suspect. Family members said Erik's vehicle was missing, and during a search of the Metzigs' home, officers located a loaded AR platform rifle on the kitchen table and a Glock handgun in the garbage, according to testimony at his preliminary hearing.

Erik Metzig pleads no contest to murders of parents, the owners of Union Star Cheese Factory

Erik Metzig, 27, will be sentenced for the homicides of David and Jan Metzig Oct. 30 in Winnebago County Circuit Court.

What a horrendous case....
Reading the history of the Metzig family in many of the attached articles provide just such tribute to the hard work and contributions of this whole family...

I encourage anyone to read them to give the beautiful picture of this loving family with 5 sons. The articles say nothing about the youngest son and who he is.


Let him rot... and hope for ongoing healing of all these other good good people.

Thank you for the encouragement to go read about the family. Murders are always a tragedy, but this one . . . Wow. So many people affected in so many ways.

Yes, prayers for the healing of the family and their communities.
