It has also been revealed that when Powell was a teenager, he threatened his mother with a butcher knife and tried to kill himself. In court papers from 1992, Terrica Powell wrote: 'I felt extreme fear when Josh made a veiled threat at me with a butcher knife in his hand. 'His demeanour was menacing for a moment as he said, "Don't push it, mom,"… I was terrified and left the room to go downstairs.' hmmmpt!

That Josh Powell and his dad—man! They both appear to have been sick puppies! Probably the dad is the beast—and turned his son into a beast, too—from childhood sexual abuse (only my guess).

The world is a sick, dark and dying place.

PS: I did not mean to downplay the fact that Josh Powell is a worse beast than his father—I was only saying that his father likely warped his head from a young age. The end result of what Josh did is much worse, and Josh is fully responsible for his own actions, no matter what his father may have done to him as a child.
