Absolutely Peninha, even if the dog was making too much noise at an hour where there needs to be quiet, the man lost any reason when he committed a crime to silence (maybe kill?) the dog, he should have simply called the police.
I wish the article mentioned the child's age, that would be a key factor.
I'm not sure I believe how the mother didn't know she had to report it to the police because she's an immigrant, surely that's what you do in any country, right?
No doubt they will be taken away from her, that has to be the final decision in this.
She has clearly shown she has no interest in them, and mother or not, it's best for the children to go into foster care.
Maybe she should have been taking swigs from the bottle of water instead.
It's sad to see that what seems like a sweet old lady is in fact a drunken menace to fellow drivers.
Gelsemium, the father can't be keeping an eye on the girl 24/7, you can't say he is to blame in this situation, there is no excuse for the pimp in what happened.
That's true, we rarely see elderly people go on killing sprees, they usually are very mellow and kind.
That's discounting case of elderly dementia though, that also may have been the case here.
What a couple of sick perverts, I can't imagine what will happen to them when they go to jail...
The school should have caught it sooner though, a teenager can't pass for a 6th grader that easily...
This needs a greater coverage, this shows what's wrong with our gun control policies, we're the only modern country where people can openly have things like automatic rifles, of course this leads to tragedies like this.
I agree with Allison, if it was really just a slap it could have easily been solved between themselves, what kind of guy calls the police when his girlfriend slaps him?
What a huge overreaction.
The fact that the mother had said he would kill her looks even worse on his accusation, it shows he had probably threatened her, so there was an intent to commit the murder.
This sounds like a great way to have people identified easily, whenever a person is arrested for something, have that tattooed onto their face, you could easily tell criminals apart then :)
I really wish that was an option in these cases, it seems like unfortunately the most important job we can have is the one that doesn't have any requirements.
