    What a dumb article for the front page of the WSJ.

      "Discipleship is not a spectator sport. We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. Uchtdorf

            Sounds like it was a 22 year old from Washington, Utah. Confessed to his father and his father turned him in. Seems likely the kid is Mormon just based on geography.

                Sounds like he's retired law enforcement. Man, what a brutal thing to deal with.

                  I agree. I can't imagine what that family is going through. But the integrity of the father is without question. What a gut wrenching decision to have to make.

                      Finally a silver lining to all of this.

                        Breaking news, not Mormon (from what I've read online...). Got to be tough for you.

                            You think I want him to be? You can fuck right off with that. Just because I’m not anymore doesn’t mean I don’t have lots of people close to me who are. I don’t think I’ve been someone around here who acts in a hostile manner toward your religious beliefs, certainly not enough to deserve your snark.

                              I am seeing articles saying he was raised LDS.

                              Not that it matters.

                                Look, I may be an Apostate, but my recollection is that the LDS church frowns upon murder. I doubt that being raised LDS factored into the decision to murder.
