Thank you for this essay, for taking the time to share the details of this horrible event and most importantly those who lost their lives. I imagine all three of them as precious, faithful men who were committed to their families and faith. And yes, I feel grief for their loss and for their families and community. What we have lost in this digital age is our shared humanity - the ability to see each other as “like” and “same” rather than “other”. It’s a crying shame.

I am filled with grief. Will this KILLING ever stop.
And do we have room for compassion for the two teens who chose violence ?
What are their stories?
