I just got a call from my mom this morning, screaming and crying. Her best friend, which is her neighbor called her this morning screaming. Her son, who is my age, who I grew up with, was stabbed this morning. He died. We grew up together, he was like a brother to me. Our families are best friends.
He was trying to protect his little sister who is pregnant and he got stabbed over it. How does this happen? How can people sleep at night knowing they took someone’s life. He had 2 children! Now his children will never know their father. What has this world come too?
I am in utter shock. Now the family is trying to gather themselves trying to make sense of it all. His poor sister is never going to forgive herself for calling her brother to come get her. He was only 29 years old.
I went to my boss hysterical this morning, and she barely looked like she cared. My neighbor, practically my brother, who I grew up with, is gone. All she said was “wow that sucks”
People are so inhumaine. And the worse part of it all, the guy that did it, is in custody, his life is now over as well. He is going to catch a murder charge. Over what? they barely knew each other. Now 2 peoples lives are over, for nothing. Violence is so not necessary.

I just dont get it. Why do people think violence is the way to settle something. He was just trying to protect his sister and get her out of where she was and these 2 guys thought it would be funny to give him a hard time. His birthday was today.
unbelievable.

I’m so sorry for your loss. I can relate – 2 weeks ago, a close friend from high schools mother and brother were stabbed to death, apparently by their father, who then committed suicide. Apparently the motive was money. I’ll never understand the world.

I’m so sorry. This is so sad, and you are right, these incidents are so horrible and just cruel. That is so sweet of him to protect his sister and unborn child, but it should not have to be that way. Someone where I work got stabbed (and killed) for shaking someone else’s hand the wrong way. The kid that died was 17 and not a troublemaker, just taking his little cousin to get something to eat.
I hope that you and your family are able to heal and my thoughts go out to his family and children.

@MrsCox – I never understand the violence either. This actually happened to the Fiance of a woman I cheered with back in the day. He was stabbed leaving her with 2 kids and one on the way. And of course…No one saw what went down, therefore leaving the family without any answers or resolutions.
It’s easier said than done but be strong!

thank you very much for all your kind words. The poor family is a wreck. It is so senseless. A part of me hopes the guy gets what he deserves, but what about his family? Its just not fair. Such a crappy situation altogether.
