This was the dead woman's mom and one of her friends. Both of who collaborated the intervention.

Why would the family hold an intervention just a week before mom and dad was shot?

Oh, I know. The lad wasn't Nazi enough. Case closed.
Now try to follow the bouncing ball: parents and friends are not reliable character witnesses.

*crrickets*
This story is, what, two days old? Give it some time before you start declaring them Parents of the Year. I don't have any proof for my hypothesis but I'm willing to throw down a crisp Jackson on her parents being garbage.

Cute little theory there BTW. How many 16 year old girls give a **** about politics so much that a difference of opinion with their parents (and we don't even know that they were left leaning - got any "content") would lead her to a neo-nazi?

Maybe, just maybe this guy was cute and showed her some affection and she fell for him on a purely teenage crush kinda way. Maybe he was simply pissed that the parents were getting in the way (what's the chance that during the intervention she shouted out "But mom and dad, I love him!" a couple of times?)

Maybe, just maybe this brainwashed dude (let's see what they find out about his parents) was just a very pissed off kid who boiled over at the parents when they'd discovered he'd snuck into her room through a window.

There were 4 other adults in the house at the time, whose accounts of the shootings should be very telling.
What does any of this have to do with them being ****ty parents?

So are you saying that at her age a cute girl could have influenced you to start denying the Holocaust? I think that says more about you than me.

Classic Bat hyperbole.

3 days now. Whenever something like this happens the Gladys Kravich's of the world can't to tell their juicy gossip. Call the local paper, give them your address and 5 minutes later a news truck is in front of your house with a reporter and cameraman running across your lawn.

If you abandon that kind of faith then you will get far in life.

And you're saying I'm guilty of conjecture? Jesus Christ, dude.

We're all guilty of conjecture in these parts. That's all every single person in this thread has been doing.

My point was I haven't once implied anything about parents of the year, where-as you and hawk have implied over and over again that they are somehow Nazi's and at fault for their own deaths.

Wrong.

They're saying that it's likely, not that it's fact. Look up infer. This **** doesn't happen in a vacuum.

I don’t think they’re Nazis. I think they did SOMETHING to **** this girl up. I also think the murder is something extra than a response to the cockblock.

Did I read right that this started at 5:00 AM?

So she lets him in instead of just rolling out with him?

Things that make you say hmmmm

A surface level google search doesn't bring up her take on it, I bet she's in custody for questioning.

The only time I've read so far is from a neighbor who was woken at 5:30AM to the girls' younger brother out in front of the house screaming "My parents are dead!".

My guess is she wasn't expecting him. He did come in through her bedroom window. If it was planned she could have just been packed and met him at the curb.
