I can't believe what kind of person could pull a knife and stab somebody like that, not thinking that they might kill them, or thinking that he has children out there who needs their daddy. I hope they catch him before he hurts anyone else.
I understand that the stabbing was a terrible thing, but nobody has ever mentioned the fact that Casey was assulted by that individual first!!!
We live in a small town, everyone that knows Brandon, also knows that he is always trying to pick a fight. Brandon has been involved in many fights. If fact, Brandon was not the first one hurt that night, Casey was. Casey has spent alot of time in prison, and has had to fight to simply survive. Casey was NOT the only one that made a 'wrong' choice that night!! So, who ever made that last comment was exactly right!
