Imagine for a moment that someone you knew was murdered. They soundly slept in their home of twenty-two years that they deemed safe enough for their children and safe enough for themselves. The house is in a small community, the type of community where everyone knows everyone else. They had raised one child who is now in high school, one child is still in grade school, and two have yet to start school. As they all slept soundly, believing nothing could go wrong, an unknown person creeps into the downstairs window. He is equipped with a large gutting knife. He is determined to settle a score that he has with someone in the house. Shrieks and screams are made during the night in this house by two people. The four children awake and enter their parents room to find nothing other than a bloodbath. Their parents have been slaughtered while they calmly slept. They were given no chance to defend themselves, nor a chance to say goodbye to their loved ones. The four children are now left on their own, to grow up without their parents, but be raised by some other person that can never take the place of their parents. When this happens, the justice system needs to decide what to do with these barbarians.
