Killed were the boy's father, 29-year-old Vincent Romero, and 39-year-old Timothy Romans. Melnick says police arrived at a home shortly after the shooting and found one victim just outside the front door. The other was found in an upstairs room. Melnick says the boy initially denied involvement but later confessed. St. Johns is a community of about 4,000 people more than 150 miles northeast of Phoenix.
BruteSquad_BRODY Posted November 8, 2008 Author Report Posted November 8, 2008 You have to love that we have become desensitized as a society so much that a story like this draws little attention. Now an 18 year old White girl disappears its news for 5 months straight.

Dobbs 3K Posted November 9, 2008 Report Posted November 9, 2008 The story I read was really vague. Is it for sure he did it completely intentionally? I assume it was, but weirder accidents have happened.
A Happy Medium Posted November 9, 2008 Report Posted November 9, 2008 This kinda reminds me of that shitty movie "Mikey", where this kid kills different families that he lives with. I do remember this trick he used. He lays down on a ball to somehow hide his heartbeat. That sure comes in handy during a massacre when he needs to kill the last, and smartest, person. Anyways...terrible story...
Twisted Intestine Posted November 9, 2008 Report Posted November 9, 2008 Why did the kid have access to a gun? Bad parenting kills.
garfieldsnose Posted November 17, 2008 Report Posted November 17, 2008 Why did the kid have access to a gun? Bad parenting kills. At first, I thought you said bad parenting skills. And then I re-read it and laughed, thinking you omitted the S on purpose because it says KILLS. Except then I realized you probably never were going to say skills and pretty much meant what you said without a hidden meaning or joke. Go me.

Nighthawk Posted November 20, 2008 Report Posted November 20, 2008 There's an edited version linked on the page... http://www.azfamily.com/video/3tvextra-ind...tml?nvid=304999 That's the relevant parts... God, I can barely stand listening to an eight year old talk for five minutes, even if it's about killing people.
Twisted Intestine Posted November 20, 2008 Report Posted November 20, 2008 He's obviously going for the psych sentence. "Because I thought he was in pain". Pfft, hopefully they see right through it. Or else he's destined to escape from the psych ward every halloween and wreck havoc!
