You bet HighVelocity. The BG's family should have to own up to the fact their "precious little baby" was/is nothing but a common crimminal who deserves nothing but justice.

And I will admit, most of the time, the BG became a crimminal because the parent(s) refused to raise them properly. They do have some accountability.

I have to disagree with High Velocity. There are lots of families out there who have no control over other family members. An example would be battered wives with abused kids, who are crimminilized every day by the sorry person they married. Should the parents be responsible for their adult son who becomes a drug addict who steals to support the habit? The crimminal is guilty, not the parents, not the brothers not the sisters. I wouldn't want to be held responsible for the actions of a 25 year old son.

I say make the offender pay, if he lives.

The offender's family should NOT have the right to sue, either.
