Daniel Petric, the Ohio teen who shot and killed his mother over a dispute involving Halo 3, was convicted today of aggravated murder, attempted aggravated murder, and other charges related to the heinous crime.
As reported previously, Petric had purchased a copy of Halo 3 following his parents' Mark and Susan had forbid him to do so. After having the game confiscated, Daniel broke into his father's lock box, which held the game and a 9mm handgun, entered the living room of his house, asked his parents to close their eyes, and shot both of them in the head, killing his mother and wounding his father.
Petric's lawyers argued that video game addiction had driven the teen to the crime, but Common Pleas Judge James Burge found otherwise. Petric now faces up a maximum sentence of life in prison without parole.
Once again my condolences go out to the Petric family for this horrible tragedy, though I sincerely hope Daniel doesn't see the outside of a prison for quite a long line.

He didn't wait til he'd got some practice in on the game, and his accuracy rating's suffered as a consequence.

First off: his parents forbade him from getting it? Seriously though, he's like 17-18, what a faggot.
Also, the dad's gotta be kicking himself, putting the game next to the gun. If he'd just put the game in like, a cupboard or something, his wife would still be alive. Lulz.

3rd thing - if you kid is pissed off, and walks in a room with somthing behind his back and says "Shut your eyes" DONT FUCKING CLOSE THEM..

"I want to play games, but mum and dad wont let me... I know I will kill them and will have hours of game time" oh shi........

I wonder how long it took for the cops to come.
Like they bust in on him covered in blood playing halo3, his dad crawling through filth trying to discipline him with a slug in the gut.

Thats my point....... if he wanted to play it why would he do that? instead of stealing his dads cash card, and doing a runner...

I bet afterwards he sat down with a big sigh of relief and played all through the night before waking in the morning like "Oh fuck what have I done?"
Like when your girlfriend is like "I don't want to" after a big night out but you keep going anyway because you're horny. Then after you feel guilty as fuck wiping cum off her tits in dead silence.
