What the hell is wrong with these people.An 11-year-old boy shot his father's pregnant girlfriend in the back of the head while she was in bed, then got on the school bus, authorities said.
Jordan Brown, of Wampum, Pennsylvania, was charged on Saturday as an adult with murdering Kenzie Marie Houk, who was eight months pregnant, and her unborn baby, Lawrence County District Attorney John Bongivengo said.
The charges were criminal homicide and criminal homicide of an unborn child.
The fifth-grader was picked up from school on Friday by Pennsylvania State Police, who found Ms Houk's body at the farmhouse where she lived, about 35 miles north west of Pittsburgh, after her four-year-old daughter told tree cutters on the property that she thought her mother was dead, Mr Bongivengo said.
Brown told police there was a suspicious black truck on the property that morning, causing investigators to look into a false lead for about five hours.
But inconsistencies in the boy's description of the vehicle led police to reinterview the victim's seven-year-old daughter, who implicated the boy, Mr Bongivengo said.
"She didn't actually eyewitness the shooting. She saw him with what she believed to be a shotgun and heard a loud bang," he said, adding that the weapon, a youth model 20-gauge shotgun, was found in what police believed was the boy's bedroom.
The shotgun, which apparently belonged to Brown, is designed for children and such weapons do not have to be registered.
Brown's lawyer, Dennis Elisco, said the evidence pointed to the gunshot wound being "consistent" with the boy's hunting gun, but he wanted to see stronger proof. I believe Jordan did not do this and I'm looking forward to seeing the physical evidence to see if it matches with what I think happened," he said.
The lawyer also said he met the boy's father, Christopher Brown, and planned to file a motion to have the boy released on bail and move the case to juvenile court.

Oh yes, lets pick up a shotgun and shoot her in the back of the head, what a random thing, and yet again it's another American based killing, do they sell guns to anyone these days? (In America) it's a bit harder to get a fire arm here but in America if you go hunting or something, you've got a gun.. o_O
That's why we seize the moment, try to freeze it and own it, squeeze it and hold it cause we consider these minutes golden.

he lived on a farm... most farms even here have shotguns onsite.
maybe the son had the gun 'cause he wanted to follow his father, and went shooting with his father?"You live more riding bikes like these for 5 minutes than most people do in their entire lives"

Perhaps. But personally I would not allow my child to handle a weapon until at least his or her teens and if I thought they were mature enough and there was a need for it. I highly doubt my children will ever need to handle a weapon, neither do I think a child of eleven, regardless of his or her surroundings, should carry a gun. Originally Posted by invincible
