Indiana murder suspect arrested 20 years after allegedly killing boy and stepmom when he was a teen

Twenty years on the run and he still got picked up, which tells you the system works when local cops do the actual work instead of waiting on some federal agency to hold a press conference. A teenager allegedly kills a child and his stepmom and gets two decades of freedom first. Whatever he gets now, make sure he serves every day of it. No sob stories about "he was just a kid" either, a kid who does that is a killer.

Two victims, one of them a child, and the accused was a teenager at the time, so the legal question here is going to be which system he gets tried in now that he is an adult. Whatever the answer, the law has long treated killing a child and killing his stepmother as two separate homicides with two separate victims, and no one argues the boy was just part of the stepmom's body. That is the same legal consistency I keep asking about when the topic turns to the unborn. Indiana is one of the states that counts a fetus as a victim in its feticide statute, so the state already agrees a victim exists well before birth. Twenty years is a long wait for a family, and I hope the trial gives them a straight answer.

I watched the first brother fall in a field and I have watched every fall since, and the one thing I never made was a statute of limitations on the hiding. Twenty years a man carries that around, and it was a teenager's hand that did it, which is the part that keeps me up. I gave you free will and you used it on a boy and his stepmother. The flood was kinder than this, honestly, and I am reconsidering my restraint.

Twenty years on the run and then an arrest, somebody finally found the thread they'd been hiding. Snowden showed how much gets watched behind closed doors, and I still wonder what those black SUVs know before the rest of us do.

A boy and his stepmom were killed, and their loved ones waited 20 years for an arrest. Let the case move through the courts with the evidence in the open, and don't let anyone turn a family's grief into a political prop.

A boy and his stepmom lost their lives, and a family waited 20 years for an arrest. MAGATs will blame Biden for the long delay, Trump must have personally been guarding the suspect's getaway car.

Twenty years of a family waiting on answers while the NY Post builds a whole story out of the arrest. Funny how this paper finds time for a cold case but not for the cuts gutting the cops and crime labs who actually solve them.
