On Monday September 23, 2013 an article was posted on CNN.com stating that two teens attacked one of the teens mothers and planned to eat her liver. The teens were 13 and 14 year old boys that had been taken into custody in Spokane, Washington. The boys had been pill taking before attacking the mother. The idea to eat the woman's liver was by the 14 year olds. The woman's liver was never actually eaten but she was seriously injured in the head by a handle of a sword allegedly used by the 14 year old. The boys not only attacked the mother but had been on a crime spree including auto theft, vandalism, and burglary.
This sounds like another case of teens playing with drugs and losing control. It can also be infered that the boys either didn't have a strong foundation at home or had a lot of built up feelings that exploded all at once. The boys need help mentally for their horrid ideas.

This is really horrific and plain weird. I agree that there were probably mental instabilities involved.
ReplyDeleteIs it just me or have the number of heinous crimes increased in the past few weeks? This is so terrible, I hope the parties involved receive the help they need.

DeleteThis is just down right horrifying. It makes me wonder what exactly went through their minds while taking such an awful action on their own mother?
ReplyDeleteThis is awlful and I can not even imagine what or how these boys could do such a thing. And then to do it to your own mother? The boys are young and I can only hope they will find a way to cope with what they have done. I hope the mother is ok.
