I hope no one thinks I am making any excuses for him. It makes me sick, and I can't believe he would ever do something like that. I am not offended either by any negative comments made towards him as he deserves a whole lot worse than that. My only comment about his not being punished about anything was meant to display the type of home environment he has and the things he gets away with. There is absolutely no excuse to be made and no way to explain this behavior.

Part of me is hoping that he lied and was trying to make me angry...as it scares me to be married into this type of family. The worst part is is that he is coming to visit in May for my hubby's graduation and now I'm terrified to leave him alone with my cats. I have no lock on my bedroom door and the locks on my bathrooms are quite easy to get in to. If he did harm my kitties, so help me...I don't know what I would do but it will be bad.

The other problem is is that he is generally a pretty decent kid. We joke with one another and get along quite well actually. He told me this story on our last night there and I just couldn't believe it. They always say that serial killers/murderers are the "normal" looking people. Ugh.
