A 10-year-old boy who shot and killed his father did so in part because a television show suggested it would be OK. The boy shot his dad—a neo-Nazi—while he slept on the couch. The father was abusive, the boy says, and was threatening to divorce the boy’s step-mother, with whom the child wanted to live. He recently had watched an episode of “Criminal Minds” that had (he thought) some parallels with his current situation. “A bad father did something to his kids, and the kid did the exact same thing I did—he shot him,” the boy said in an interview with police. “He told the truth and wasn’t arrested and the cops believed him. He wasn’t in trouble or anything. I thought the exact same thing would happen to me.” (Los Angeles Times)
