Teen Charged With Killing Family

What is happening in the world? Almost every day you hear of a family member killing their whole family. A teenager who had recently moved back home after breaking up with his live-in girlfriend is accused of gunning down and killing four family members, stunning friends and neighbors. Nathaniel Dickson, age 18, was arrested Saturday night at a home in Belton, South Carolina, about 20 miles from where the bodies of his father, stepmother, stepsister and younger brother were found. Those who knew Dickson grappled with how the quiet teen who loved video games and sports now was charged with four counts of murder. Melissa Funk's 16 year old son, Robbie, was good friends with Nathaniel and the youngest victim. She said it was not what she had known him to be. Everyone is shocked.
