the guy that they were looking for and his friends have done a lot of things that would make this look not so big of a deal.

They were apart of it and it was his house they were at. I may not agree with what they did but I think the whole story should be told not just half

lilshychic323, if the people they kidnapped and beat up didn't have anything thing to do with burning their sister's house I can judge them. If they had done this to the one that did the burning I could feel some sympathy for them but they get no sympathy from me for kidnapping and assaulting innocent people.

I think its funny how the whole story is not told

These guys may have went about things the wrong way but the person they were looking for burnt down their sisters house and has burnt other peoples house and nothing has happen to him so if you dont no what mad then do this then you can't judge them

Sheriff said it was not about drugs, yet they found drug, weapons in the house...

They need to be put into prison for a very, very long time. How about 50 years. There in prison they will not be so bad and they will have to follow all rules and regulations or face the consequences right then and there. There will be no waiting on that.

Lock them up and throw away the key. Perhaps the same punishment should be used on them also. These are two low life POS.

Notice how they didn't hurt the woman but the men were pistol whipped and hit with brass knuckles. This should be tried as a hate crime. If it was the other way around, it would be.

@No assault, kidnapping, or attempted murder charges?
