This is a terrible situation. My thoughts and prayers are with the families and the investigators.

The kid looks like a grown-up alter boy. If I were to see him on the street, I'd say to myself, "Gee, his parents must be so proud of him!"

So, what happened? Here's a young man who could easily be the class president; head of the debate team; top player of the chess club; quarterback, elected M.V.P., three years running; homecoming king; and (naturally) the steady boyfriend of the head cheerleader since their freshman year.

Okay. My imagination is running overtime. But, ask yourself this? Were any of these accomplishments ever a part of Tucker's life? Could it be possible that at one point in time, Tucker had it all? Perhaps he started running with the wrong crowd. Eventually, this estranged him from his folks and caused his girl to break up with him.

Now, he's filled with anger and frustration. He blames his parents for not holding him with a firmer hand. Everyone is at fault, but Tucker.

Now, what is he going to do without his new friends? Who's going to support him in court? His dad certainly can't! He thinks to himself, "Oh! If I could just turn the clock back!" Don't think that way, Tucker. Children think like that!

But, now you have new realities to live with, Tucker. You must accept any consequences meted out to you. Your dad died a horribly painful and slow death! But, I'm sure he loved you, even with his last breath. You should be sure of it, too.

As for your new friends? I wouldn't count on them.

Peace, Tucker.

Tucker and I dated for almost two years in high school
He always had troubles, with himself and his family. He never knew how much they loved him. And now, he'll never get to know. Rose(his mom) always tried her hardest with him. To make him happy, and make sure he was the best her could be. She loved Tucker so much. And he loved Isabella(the little girl). She and I were very close when Tucker and I dated. My love and prayers go out to to the Cipriano family. Robert(Mr. Cipriano), rest in peace.

I knew Tucker and like Courtney said, he always had troubles. My heart goes out to his family, I never met them but I always heard good things. And I am praying for Tucker as well.

And to Michelle, this is not your personal blog. You have no idea what you're talking about. This isn't a creative writing class. But you're right, your imagination just ran away with you. Too much.
