I pray for both set of parents! this was a terrible incident that happened and still can not believe that it happened. I know that he served in Iraq with the Marines. I remember John from high school and he was a sweet boy that never was out to hurt anybody. I am wondering if the war messed him up in the head??? I want to know the rest of the story about why it happened.
God bless both families..there is way more to this story than many know. Proof the military messes people up.
Sounds like Lethal-Injection is in order for John Darrel Thueson.
