Brandon O’Quinn Rasberry, 32, was shot in the head in 2022 while he slept at an RV park in Nixon, Texas, about 60 miles (97 kilometers) east of San Antonio, investigators said. He had just moved in a few days before.

The boy’s possible connection to the case was uncovered after sheriff’s deputies were contacted on April 12 of this year about a student who threatened to assault and kill another student on a school bus. They learned the boy had made previous statements that he had killed someone two years ago.

The boy was taken to a child advocacy center, where he described for interviewers details of Rasberry’s death “consistent with first-hand knowledge” of the crime, investigators said.

    People thinking like a premeditated murderer when is obviously an impulse act that got their hands on a loaded gun and a brain full of movies tell him that’s for pointing and shooting.

    He probably did it because that’s what guns do you point them at heads and click them.

    Then shit got way more real than he ever imagined. And it’s too late now. Imagine “oh shit I’m in trouble” of kids doing stupid stuff. Except this time mommy can’t help. Nobody can’t help.

    Though shit for a 7 year old, I almost can’t believe he kept it in for more than two years

      With real guns, you don’t click them but instead you use your actual hands and finger to make em fire.

      Jokes aside, you could update your initial example from movie to vgame and click would make more sense contextually :)

      also, that was the first thing I said to myself, how the hell can a youngin hold something in THAT FUCKING SERIOUS for THAT FUCKING LONG?! I did dumb shit as a kid and a few weeks of guilt were hell. We ain’t all built the same i guess
