| Boy killed his father after 1,000 smacks
Boy 'killed father after 1,000 smacks'
An eight-year-old US boy accused of murdering his father and a family friend kept a tally of his parents' smackings, vowing that the 1,000th time would be the last, police believe.
By Tom Leonard in New York
Last Updated: 11:17PM GMT 27 Nov 2008
The unnamed boy allegedly shot dead his father, Vincent Romero, 29, and Timothy Romans, 39, their lodger, at the family home in St Johns, Arizona, with a .22 rifle as they were coming home from work at a local power plant.
The double murder on Nov 5 shocked the US, with investigators initially struggling to find any motive.
However, according to police records reported by the Arizona Republic, the boy "is believed to have made ledgers and/or communicated in the form of writings about his intentions" if his father and stepmother continued to smack him.
According to the police records, the boy told a Child Protective Services official that "when he reached one thousand spankings . . . that would be his limit. [The boy] kept a tally of his spankings on a piece of paper."
Despite his age, relatives suspected the boy immediately in the shootings. His grandfather told investigators: "If any 8-year-old was capable of doing this, [the boy] was", and the child's grandmother added: "I knew this was going to happen, they were too hard on [him]."
The boy told police he was smacked the day before the shootings for failing to finish schoolwork.
Records indicate the boy had no history of psychiatric care and was not on any medication.
Police say he gave conflicting accounts about the shootings, initially saying he discovered the bodies when he returned home from school.
He later changed his story, admitting he shot each man twice to end their suffering after they had been shot by an unknown assailant.
In an interview whose contents was later released by police, the boy admitted he been angry with his father after the latter asked his stepmother to smack him for not bringing some schoolwork home.
At the end of the interview, he buried his head in his jacket. Asked by an officer what he was thinking, he replied: "I'm going to go to juvie." http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worl...00-smacks.html

Surprised an 8 year old planned the murder of his father if he was hit more than 1000 times. I wonder what punishment he will receive, seeing that he is 8 years old after all.

ya i remember seeing this news on cnn couple of weeks ago
at first they suspected that maybe the boy was molested by the father and the friend, which is why it resulted in the murder
but wow.. wasnt expecting that kind of reason for the killings..
