This is a deeply disturbing case involving four young men who were at the beginning of their adult lives.  There is no peaceful resolution to the conclusion of this criminal investigation.  On one side, you have a family grieving the loss of a 19-year old.  And, at the other end are three families trying to understand how their teen could be involved in such a crime.  A young person lost his life while the other three are facing a lifetime of imprisonment for one very serious criminal act.
