Probably there is a lot that the media haven't been told yet. It will be interesting to hear the whole story. And chilling.

Living in AZ, obviously its all over the news here. Friends of the family and neighbors are adamant that the father/son relationship was fine with no signs of abuse. The boarder in the house it seems was an innocent victim. Seems like a case of a sociopath to me. The news is portraying him as a kid who sat in court with no remorse on his face and said he was twirling around in his chair.

Or more proof that he's just a kid who doesn't really grasp what a terrible thing he's done and what he's in for.

Who Stole the Cookie From the Cookie Jar?The best way to interrogate a child.
An 8-year-old Arizona boy charged with murdering his father and another man appeared in court on Monday. Police say the boy confessed to shooting the two men with a .22-caliber gun, but his defense attorneys told reporters that "there could have been improper interview techniques done." What's the "proper" way to interrogate a kid?.....

jon, do you ever post any original thoughts of your own? You should've changed your screenname to Sir Linksalot.

I do where it it matters. I thought that this article ( http://www.slate.com/id/2204374/ ) was worth a great deal more than me addding my POV to the rest of the pile.
The article speaks rather well for itself.

I'm no psychologist, but from a personal standpoint I don't agree with someone "not understanding" the severity of what they did. By the time you're 8, you know that KILLING someone is not OK. I mean, what child at the age of 2 or 3 isn't taught that it's not OK to hit others, hurt others, etc?
