Tell that to the boy and father's family in metairie
There was also another violent home invasion less than 9 blocks away within two weeks of this incident.

I don't think either of us implied or said they deserved anything that happened. I'm just playing messageboard detective and wondering if any possible connections were established between the killers and anyone at the house. LIke I mentioned. A nice guy I knew was a drug dealer. The really good kind. His cousin was a thug. His cousin found out about a rich white boy customer and went robbed him on his own. Pissed off everyone.

Could be completely innocent in that a neighbor's friend from out of town visited and saw nice cars and made assumptions about white boys in their hood. Who knows. It's a message board. We're just wondering. Nobody is diminishing the victims' rights to grieve or feels like these kids deserved anything that happened that night.

I hate armed robbery and think it should be mandatory life in prison when a firearm is discharged or even attempted(jammed gun for example).

don't doubt it, but that's not completely random.

Those perps decided to stake out an ATM, watch for someone (in a nice car, presumably) get a few hundred out, follow them home and then take their money, car, widescreen, etc.

That's what I was getting at. Not just that they had weed and maybe anticipated drama. Maybe A pizza delivery boy could have brought them a pizza and noticed one resident with a lot of money in hand. That's all it takes. I'm just wondering if any of this was ever followed up on to lock up everyone involved.
