I love the Northshore. I worked for the St. Tammany Fire Dept for a while, but we lived in Carriere, Ms, near Picayune. Unfortunately, there are stupid people everywhere. This sounds like your typical white trash boy with no education. I find it hard to imagine what they were thinking. It took time to walk over to the farm, find something to steal, drag it back to the apartment, then kill it. How does someone sustain rage for that long? And over a football game, no less. I hope he is forced to take some anger management classes. I can't remember if the article had anything about that.

I'm glad he received the 5 years, but in the same respect, it makes me sad. My grandmother was killed in a car wreck by a punk kid doped up on marijuana, who was speeding, and crossed the center line and hit my grandmother's car head-on. That punk kid received a suspended sentence and probation. He has since been arrested 3 separate times for drug-related issues and he hasn't served a day in jail. I guess it wasn't newsworthy enough for the justice system to work. Not like a dead calf.
