Jimmytwotimes, I can assure you that Anna's dad probably never gave her any good advice... In fact he was probably encouraging the friendship/relationship because it meant more money in his pocket for his prescription drug dealership... She has not had a good role model since her mom died and she went to live with her dad. Guess it shows also... He has 2 daughters... One was in a car accident while a drug deal went bad and now his youngest is heading to prison. I think all involved should go to jail. I would have Snitched also..... Anna is my cousin and speak from experience. The solutions arent in gun control, it starts with good parenting and and stop sparing the rod.... Beat these kids if they need it and stop with your time outs and letting things go. If Anna's dad had of had that kind of treatment then he would have set a better example and maybe this could have been avoided!!!!!! Talk to someone who doesnt know!!!!!!!!

Repects to the deceased's family. If gun control had been in effect this would not have happened. (Yeah-right!!!)

NashCountyNative:::I taught two of the suspects in middle school and the sad thing is...that they have the ability to be so much more than this....but they have thrown it all away.

The might have had the ability, but I bet dollars to donuts, they didn't have the support at home. You teachers can only do so much.

One of the suspects was charged with first degree murder last year and is still walking around shooting at people 4 months later.

Our criminal justice system is a joke. I used to say that you had to kill someone before the system actually tried to put you away ... now it appears you have to kill at least TWO people ...

But let's first concentrate on banning guns rather than locking up dangerous people like these.

I want the death penalty for anyone involved in the murder of another. Want them to have a speedy, but fair trial, if guilty, they should be put to death within 3 years after their verdict. Stop wasting my taxdollars on these bums!!
