Almost exactly a year ago, our former neighbors were attacked while they slept in their home. The husband was killed, the wife is still alive although she suffered extensive injuries, especially to her face and head. Today she can barely speak, she lost one of her eyes and is otherwise horribly disfigured. What makes it worse is that the only suspect (who was just arrested), is their son, a 22-year-old who my brother and grew up playing with as children. My mom emailed me an update on the story and I haven't been able to shake the sadness of it the entire day. It's very unlikely anyone else could have committed this crime - the evidence is greatly stacked against him. I can't imagine the pain and anguish this family must be going through. I keep them in my thoughts and hope they can be happy somehow, someday.
