This is crazy!! I knew this guy, there has to be more to the story. He was the nicest guy in the world. Somehow this 21 year old provoked him (beyond the obvious.. that he was dating his 16 year old daughter).. I am not condoning his actions, but there had to be some self defense, followed by a hopeless, what do I do next.. It's VERY SAD!!!!
