I can't fathom the mysteries of some peoples' minds and David Ludwig and Kara Borden are two of them. No doubt someone with expertise will ferret our what triggered (no pun intended) the 18 year old to go off the deep end.

Aside from his mind-boggling cold-blooded murder of Kara's parents, he obviously was too immature to realize the price he would pay. What world does he live in?

As to Kara, I find it hard to believe she didn't hear gunshots...my understanding is that she was in the house at the time David shot her father, at least.

It's another stupid waste of human lives...all of them.

Thanks for the ping.

It's even worse than that. According to the article, she saw him do it:

After a 45-minute conversation, the Bordens told Ludwig he could no longer see their daughter. They also told him to tell his parents about his relationship with Borden, Totaro said. Ludwig told police he sat for five to 10 minutes, staring into space, and “thinking in his own mind what he should do.” He looked at Borden for confirmation of what he should do, but did not get any. At that point, Ludwig told police he made up his mind and stood up and shot Michael Borden. Borden’s 15-year-old sister, Katelyn, who was nearby, fled into a bathroom, and Borden ran out the back door, across her backyard and onto Owl Hill Road. Ludwig then killed Cathryn Borden.

Kara SAW Ludwig kill her parents (at least her father). She ran after his car anyway.

Maybe the world of video games...
