so whoever keeps posting that they confessed, you are WRONG. they never confessed anything. you need to get your facts straight. do i know yes!!!!! i know michael and have talked to him and i know they have not done that. all people who drugs are not bad, but all we are trying to say is that those victims are not as innocent as everyone is making them out to be. for everyone who knows michael knows that he could not of done this. something had to have made him snap or if he didnt do it, he didnt knolw whay to do because he was scared, michael was a good person despite what any one says. and his family is grieving just like the family of the victims, in a different way but still grieving. so back off everyone, the damage is done to all families
involved

Come on! Quit sticking up for him. For some one that is such a good person and would never do nothing like that shot two women several times not one not two several is one F..cked up person. I no the vicitims and their family. The girls were helping Mike out. Mike and Afton came down here with nothing but a couple of bags of clothes. Every one else help them out. Gave them food, a place to sleep ect. Everything was handed to these two people down here for free! And no one knows anything about Afton around here, they helped her cause of Mike. Oh yeah by the way, about his kids, for such a good guy that loved his kids so much, told me one night that he had no kids. What a good guy right. LOL

Maybe you should go back to just not saying anything. There is 2 sides to every story.

maybe you should shut your mouth. And quite sticking up for a murder. Oh yea your a good person like him right. I have a question do you no what they did to those girl? You could say mutalated their bodys with the gun shots and several of them at that. Did you go inside the house where it happened i did not a pretty sight, but you just keep thinking to yourself he is innicent if it makes you fell better. you dont think i know what i am talking about but i no more than you. I saw all for of them the day it happened. So maybe you need to go talk to your murder friend and let him put some more bull shit in his head. I no that there are two sides to every story maybe something did make him snap, but he did not have to go and KILL TWO women that gave him a place to live and food to eat. Go to hel. you murder defender.

You know, I keep seeing people say the same stuff here back and forth. For those of you defending the victims, pay closer attention to the posts you read by those who care about the accused... They are not claiming that Mike and Afton are innocent. So why do you keep putting words in their mouths?

I knew the victims and the shooters. Sorry to see them gone. For those of you lying about Mike and Afton lets face it they were doing some fucked up shit, and those of you saying things about the girls... come on stop lying too. This is hard enough to believe.

This was a shitty situation that should have never happened. One that has made me reflect on my life very strongly. Just because all 4 of them were using drugs and had screwed up lives does not mean that anyone should have been killed. Something had to have transpired to make this happen. The only thing I can think of is the drugs. It is surely not an excuse, does not matter how deep in you are it is not an excuse to murder or to be murdered.

Those of you who keep telling people to go to hell, remember there is only one judge and it is not you. Everyone has a right to defend their loved ones. I personally prefer to see some justice here. But let each others families and friends grieve. Mike and Aftons families haven't done anything wrong. Just like the girls folks didn't either. Y'all can defend your loved ones, that's what family is for. But lets not be in denial here folks. All four of them were in pretty deep. Denial wont bring them back. I saw it, did it with them, among other things. Doesn't make it okay that they died, no need to deny the truth.

I am glad that somebody has a brain on this topic. I fully agree with you. I expect justice to be served to. I am definately not saying he is innocent, just that we have know right to judge and throw salt in an open wound. It was a terrible thing that happened, no doubt about it. But at the same time it is not fair to paint a perfect picture of these 2 women just because they happened to become victims of a senseless act. They were involved with drugs and the 4 of them are the only ones who can truly say what transpired that day. Well them and GOD. So thanks for your comment, I am not taking sides. But I do know mike and can't for the life of me see him doing something like this. But he did and now he will have to suffer the cosequences. Damn he is in custody what more do people want.

Go to hell? That is a crime in the eyes of the Lord just like murder. Maybe you need to think about what you say before you say it huh. Otherwise just don't speak.

Regardless of anything, nobody deserves to be murdered. Period.

WOW the grammar and spelling on this board is horrible!

Thank you "Just a person"! I couldn't have said it better myself!

DUH!! How many times do I Have to say that I agree that nobody deserves to get murdered. I just don't think that any one on this planet has the right to judge another human being. That is not our job, it is Gods and I for one think that he is more than capable of fulfilling his duties. You have a hard time comprehending what you read huh! Cause you would"ve read my comments stating what I have just said about 3-4 times already.

im blown away with all these posts all I can say is that I was friends with Terry ann for about 10 years & she was a very good person. we have all made mistakes in are life that we can't take back. but I belive this was no mistake ! my heart goes out 2 both families & yes I say both cause no one can control another persons actions. every keeps saying mexican mike well he was not the only one Afton is just as guilty.they both stold the gun & they both new what they were doing. justice will never be served for such a horrible crime. my heart goes out to all the families

as far as we all no is what you have read in the paper. I do no not much will be done untill mike gets back here they both are looking @ more charges than that. stealing a gun is capital murder & then to steal a gun then go do it is premeditated murder. justice needs to be servrd

I agree, how the hell is it his kids or his families fault that any of this went on. Posting comments like that is the same as me saying "well good, at least now we have two less cracked out lesbian whores in this world, who can't take care of their kids due to drugs" I don't though cause that is just not right. So whoever is saying stuff like that about mikes kids and family, should learn to keep their heartless, sick ass thoughts to themselves. Mikes kids and family are victims too. Losers.

We know Mike can't read any of these so let's attack his family, right! Screw that!!!

And again, I've known mike for about 20 years and have never known him to go by "Mexican Mike" so as far as I am concerned whomever is calling him that never even knew him.

The alias Mexican Mike was started by the police just after the 2 murder victims were found. Apparently Someone called him that.

I'm also GLAD that I never knew these 2 killers.

when I meet mexican mike that is how he introduced himself to me. he may have not went by that name @ home but around here he did. it really don't matter what name he goes by cause that doesn't take away the fact that two lifes are gone. and to the ones that say things about his kids u really need to grow up they are inisent children that had no control of there dads actions . everyonr is talking about mike! does any one no about afton? where is her family ? was she really raised in foster care all of her life then turned to the streets @ 18yrs of age? that's the story shes told every one
