In response to "Info on Parents":

I'm sorry, it is not "fact" by any means that the sister came after the father first with the same knife. Although I could be wrong, as far as I have read, it definitely is not "fact" corroborated by the forensic evidence or the audio tapes. True, there are always many sides to a story, but to call your speculation "fact" is misleading. "Fact" based on the someone's word is often not fact, but hearsay.

For whatever caused the events that happened that night, I just pray that all people and all nations learn that understanding over anger is a far better and efficient means to meet your objectives without compromising the integrity and morals of people involved.
