Doesn’t sound like the kid had much of a home life or any life at all. Apparently had a speech impediment and was bullied a lot. No justification for what he did, but it sure doesn’t seem like his parents (absent dad) were putting much effort into giving him a leg up in life. Some people shouldn’t have kids. Actually, a lot of people shouldn’t have kids.

I found it interesting that she said, “Forgive me”, but she didn’t say, “I’m sorry.” Not her crime, but I think any parent would feel a lot of guilt and shame if there kid committed such a heinous act. Anyway, seemed self-centered to ask for forgiveness in the absence of an apology. I suspect the same was present in her parenting.
