Schumacher said that he believed Elizabeth was the ringleader, and investigators revealed that she’d admitted to planning the crime.
The shooter was not charged with a crime, and deputies believe that he was acting in self-defense.
“There’s got to be a limit to that law, I mean he shot all three of them; there was no need for that,” Schumacher said.
He added that while he does support the right to bear arms and protect your home, he doesn’t agree with shooting and killing intruders.
“These boys’ families are going to suffer with this the rest of their lives, we have to live with this the rest of our lives,” he said, adding that he knew that the situation was caused by the teens’ poor choices.
Schumacher hopes that the death of the three teens will serve as an example for others.
