Mostly on my Birthday I feel exactly like Kellerman did in that story ;-)
Especially when my 7 years younger sister got married this weekend ... ;-)

Last Saturday something terrible happened. One of my ex students murdered one of my students.
Jacob is 18. I was teaching him in Junior High School few years ago. He was one of very intelligent and very lazy boys. He could have all the best notes but he " didn't care". He was always polite to me but I know he wasn't that polite to other teachers. I liked him 'cause he was polite and really good in my subject. He had to repete the same grade twice as he just didn't get acceptable notes from some subjects. Finally he graduated.

Patricia was 14... she was in the second grade of Junior High School. I didn't know her well. I know she was often escaping from school and she had trouble with being polite and with learning...

Jacob and Patricia met and they were together for some time... She got pregnant with him and he killed her. He struggled her and left her body on the field near my school. Next day a passer by found her body and called the police. They went to Jacob's house and found him there. He didn't even deny... His all words were " I killed her 'cause she was expecting my baby"

I would never expect something like that ... I knew that boy... There was no killer inside him. I just can't understand it. I can't get over it. Where were the parents of that girl ? Why did they let her go out late at night ? Why didn't they take care of her ? Why he really killed her ? Why did he kill her at all ? Is that a good reason ? " She was expecting my baby ? " I just can't understand it.....
By getting her pregnant he committed a crime - in here no one under 15 can have sex. But he could get over it by marrying her if the parents agreed. But killing her ?????
