Here is a great story from right here in Florida:
"FORT PIERCE, Fla. -- A 16-year-old boy told detectives he killed his parents because he didn't want to disappoint them anymore, according to a police documents. Jacob Brighton said he shot his parents last month because he always felt like a disappointment to them because he didn't have a job, smoked marijuana and didn't share the same "qualities or interests" as his father, according to the recently released documents. "So there's nobody, now there's nobody to be disappointed in me, try to make me lead ... their life," Brighton said.
Brighton pleaded not guilty to first-degree murder in the shooting deaths of Richard Brighton, 47, and Penny Brighton, 46, in their Fort Pierce home. He could get life in prison if convicted. "There are some things in his young life that happened that will shock and disturb the community," said his attorney Darren Shull. "They are traumatic events that happened to Jacob." Shull declined to elaborate. Brighton was being held without bond. Watch Local 6 News for more on this story."

Wow, what was happening in this kids life that he thought that shooting his parents would solve his problems. I like the fact that he told detectives that he killed this parents and then later the story says that he plead not guilty to the charge of first-degree murder.
Later alligators.
