I remember both of those kids from high school.  
Russel was always a scummy individual, I can totally see him acting that way in a court room.

^Totally agree with this

Although it’s obvious that this Russell Frost is a total moron, I think it’s pretty ballsy of the Cross family to come out against him so harshly. It easily could’ve been the other way around and the Cross kid could be sitting in the defendants chair.

YES. +rep.

They grew up together, and spent a lot of time apparently at both house I am sure. If the parents condoned their kids hanging around together, it takes a REAL ADULT to man up and say this is one example of the worlds works unfortunate accidents you could think of, and leave it at that. If the parents never liked the kid and always knew he was trouble that’s a different story… but that’s not how it sounded in the news.
