More often than not, the child not being his own is put forth as some type of defense. So far not, but it's early yet. In the meantime, other news reports say that this murderer got roughed up a bit in jail. Not enough, though, as he only got a bloody nose.
Actually, there is a third common element in this story: a dead child.
Can you explain this further?
I'm envisioning some kind of, "Well, male lions immediately slaughter the young of another male after they invade a territory and co-opt the female."
