That guy even looks dangerous in his mug shot... Something about him reminds me of Andrew Wirth who killed the off-duty cop and her boyfriend in Oconomowoc.

Onelove-- if you can't be judgemental about a murderer then who can you be judgemental about? I was just saying, he has the hardened look of a criminal... and he IS a criminal so I don't really think that I'm reaching there...

You don't know that he's a criminal. Being arrested and charged is not the same as being found guilty - so yes, you're reaching there.
When I was flying, my luggage was once held up for inspection. My brother-in-law asked, "Does she REALLY look like a terrorist?" The response? "Sir, if we knew what a terrorist looks like, we wouldn't be searching anyone's luggage; we'd just look at them."
I personally think he looks sad.

I haven't seen him since he was a little boy, but I babysat him and his siblings when I was a teen, and I loved them. I don't know anything more than what I've read online, and I haven't asked. I'm sorry to hear it either way, guilty or innocent. Anyone who kills someone will have to pay the price, and that's just how it is - if that is what he did. I wasn't there and I don't know. But I do care, and I'm sorry both for the family who lost a son and for Erik's family, who may also feel that they've also lost their son. <3
