About the brothers that killed their father...

[lovetoread]

I dont know if they did it or not. That doesnt concern me,what does is the way the news reports about it always refer to this man that abused them and who they claimed they were protecting, as their "lover".

As far as I am concerned,you cannot have a lover at the freaking age of 12. That is a molester, not a lover.

Why would they do this? Would they refer to this man as a "lover" if these were girls,not boys?

I didnt think they used the term 'lover' but rather that the friend told the boys he 'loved' them. This seems to be the arguement why the kids would lie and then change their story.

I'm curious to see if we get two guilt verdicts for the same murder

I have a link in the first post, here is one from court tv: http://www.courttv.com/trials/king/

I heard the term lover this morning. She wasnt referring to his loving him,she said "They are now saying that they lied to protect his(referring to the man) lover." It was a blurb from msnbc.

If it's called patricide, would there be a word matricide?

I go and check.
