Nope. I don't believe it was a one-time ring and run, and I don't believe the kids got the wrong house. I suspect there was continued harassment going on and the victim finally snapped.
Those kids may have pushed a crazy man over the edge. But it's just a suspicion. I'd like to hear the jailed man's side of the story before I conclude anything, including what I already suspect.

Yes, that's what I was clumsily implying as a possibility in my earlier comment.

Agreed. We'll see what he says. Though nothing can justify killing three kids.
It's amazing to me that so many people are walking around out there with so much pent up anger that they would kill others for ringing a doorbell and running away.
If you come to this forum every day, you shouldn't be amazed.
"I will put down any threat to my family with unmitigated fire power and a sheer unabashed full metal jacket onslaught"..etc.
There are some dudes here who REALLY can't wait to shoot someone.

Protecting his family at all cost is "someone who can't wait to shoot someone"? Really? You need to rethink that, dman. I'd protect my loved ones with the same ferociousness. Most of us would. That doesn't make me anything other than the gentle soul I am. But don't provoke me.
And I am in no way, shape or form, advocating what that man did.
According to the TIME story, no one knows for sure that's what happened.
That might be true, but you can't run into people with a vehicle to try and hurt or kill them no matter what unless your life is in danger. Hope he gets life and I don't care if kids rang a damn bell. Who cares?

Thanks for the heads-up. I'm going to have to change my plans for the evening.
