Very hard for most to listen to

This is a very graphic recounting of this case. It will be very hard for most to listen to as it will more than likely hit very close to home for any parent. This would be a nightmare scenario for anyone. The fact that two 10 year-olds were behind this murder is absolutely appalling and incredibly sad.

The confession of the 10 year-olds is very chilling. To me at the very least it didn't even sound like the children were remorseful for their actions. The things that the 10 year-olds were doing up until the abduction you could tell was the making of future delinquents, I was actually wondering what their parental influence in their lives were at that point.

The news recounting of the events are very matter of fact, but very saddening. I could not even imagine what the mother was going through when her son first turned up missing.
