My brothers friend killed a man!

Wow how do I start. When I was younger I lived next door to a lady named Pat and her son James. They were like family as I grew up an moved away I would go and see them from time to time they did not have alot of money and sometimes would go months with out power in there home. James was an adult and could not work due to some illness. Well My brothers friend Matt we call him little Matt. He was always a rocky kid his mom is on drugs and his older brother spend all his teen years in jail. Well something happend and Matt killed James and stabbed Pat. I am so mad at Matt. I knew his was not a good kid but I never ever ever thought he would do something like this and to such nice people. I am all mixed up inside.

Ya know ive been thinking about that an I cant think of one reason he would have done it. Its just so sad James took care of Pat she lost her DH 3 years ago. Its going to be hard for her to make it own her own. She cant even make it now.

That is so sad. I'm really sorry. :hug

oh how sad :( my heart goes out to Pat :(

I think you are so right I do think he is mentally ill. As for drugs... could be that also. Thanks for writing....

Wow what a shock this must be for you & your family... i'm sorry.

oh my gosh, that is horrible, I'm sorry

wow!

this is a terrible story,very sad,I understand how you could feel this way,Im very sorry.

That is terrible... and a total trip too ! Too much of this kind of stuff going on. Sorry for you... I trip when I know someone who does crazy things.

Sad too that some people live in such awful circumstances.

it is hard to know somebody that has killed somebody and wonder why...why....why....your life if ruined now......I know 2 people off hand that has murdered somebody...one killed 2 ....sad because not only is his life ruined but his babies are too because he took care of them alot

i am so sorry this happened-many prayers to you all:hug

I am so sorry.

Wow I am very sorry. Was he a drug user?

oh how terrible :(

I'm so very sorry that this happened to your friends. Hopefully, he won't get the chance to do this to anyone else again. People scare me sometimes. I just can't imagine why they do things like this. Now, his life is ruined and he has negatively impacted the lives of so many others.
