I felt like the family was blaming me, also, and, I mean, I know it's not my fault, and I didn't ask for it. I was scared because I've never seen him like that.

We heard somebody yell something and we both just froze and looked at the door. He wasn't hitting me. He was just standing there, frozen. As soon as we saw (the officer's) head pop up, he just shot.

We wanted to be close to my family.

The good thing is, through this guy's drug habit, finally the family of the victim up in Fort Worth is going to get some closure on this.

I tend to opt for relaxed family holidays when I can.

Christmas is a huge thing in my family. We usually start decorating the day after Thanksgiving. We spend Christmas Eve with one set of grandparents, and Christmas Day with the other grandparents and our family.
