Hi Bill
The tornado at St Peter edged out any news on the 13 year old in our
wonderful paper. But, yesterday Tom (the one that was the police chief in
Grand Meadow) and I talked to the county sheriff and it sounds like the
child has not had an easy time. But, it still shouldn't have caused him to
kill others. I do know that guns were left lying around the house when he
lived up here and the mother was not worried as she said the kids knew
about guns and what they go do. She also said that they wouldn't touch the
guns.
