I am so sick of these people and this case. I live in the general vicinity of where this happened and the news seems to think they need to tell everyone when he farts. As far as I'm concerned he should have met with a convienient accident when they had to drag him back after he tried to run off. Innocent my ***. Love is not only blind it's apparently stupid.
I actually went to high school with the guy so after the arrest, after the conviction and after the death penalty was passed down, I was getting phone calls from reporters on "How do you remember Scott?"
His parents are fairly well-off, they belonged to the country club, Scott went to a private high school and his parents paid for everything he wanted.
But for him trying to run off, it's not like he was right across the way from the Mexican border. He was probably still a good 30-35 miles away from the border when they arrested him. If he made it to Mexico, he'd have been back, this was not a guy I remember being able to rough it, in any sense of the word.
