Memo To Boys Thinking Of Becoming Men:

This is NOT what you do if you're "in love".

Here's a phrase you won't hear in connection to this story, kiddies (or anywhere else in our benighted society): disordered sexual desire. Pay no attention to the insanity defense. These kids (and yours) have been taught their genitals (Oops! I meant "passions", of course.) must be obeyed.

Yep. Even sweet little home-schooled, 14-year-old-playing-17-year-old-on-her-blog, soccer playing, Black Eyed Peas loving, small town living, Christian cuties named Kara Beth. (Not to mention the 18 year old eligible- to-vote-and-join-the-Marines men who love them.

Police Capture Teen Wanted After Girlfriend's Parents Slain


I guess this means Geraldo will be in town for the foreseeable future.

Oh, yeah. Greta too.

Indiana State Police said they have captured 18-year-old murder suspect David Ludwig.

He is wanted in a Lancaster County, Pa., double homicide and abduction of the homicide victims' 14-year-old daughter.

He was apprehended about 20 miles west of Indianapolis near the small community of Bellville, along U.S. 40.

Television helicopter images show a red Volkswagen Jetta against a tree. A man in a gray shirt was sitting on the ground near the car.

State Police 1st Sgt. Dave Bursten said David Ludwig, 18, was apprehended about 12:30 p.m. EST after a car he was driving crashed in Hendricks County about 20 miles west of Indianapolis following a pursuit by State Police.

"He's in custody and we have the girl," Bursten said.

Bursten said Ludwig was found with the missing girl, 14-year-old, Kara Beth Borden, and she was unharmed.

Ludwig is accused of killing his girlfriend's parents.

Authorities said an Amber Alert for Ludwig and 14-year-old Kara Beth Borden covered the entire eastern United States.

Borden's parents, Michael and Cathryn Borden, both 50, were found shot to death Sunday morning.

Police said Ludwig killed the parents after they argued with their daughter about her curfew. The girl was missing, but investigators don't know if Ludwig abducted her or if she wa is a willing partner.

Police issued an arrest warrant for Ludwig on two counts of criminal homicide, one count of reckless endangerment and one count of kidnapping.

Police said the two missing teens were spotted in Pennsylvania earlier Monday, Lancaster, Pa., TV station WGAL reported.

Lititz Police Chief William Seace said they were both spotted in the Lockhaven Lamar area. Seace said Borden appeared to be crying and that she had changed her appearance. He said she was now wearing her hair in a ponytail.

Seace said Ludwig had also changed his appearance, cutting his hair to about an inch long. Seace said Ludwig had been positively identified.
Borden's 9-year-old brother, David, fled to the home of neighbors, who called 911.

The Bordens home-schooled their children and knew Ludwig through a home-schooling network.

Meanwhile, a Pennsylvania coroner said the girl’s parents each died of a single gunshot wound to the head.

Kara Beth Borden's younger sister has told investigators her parents were shot after they argued with Ludwig and their daughter about Kara Beth's curfew.

Here 's some more:

The story circulating among neighbors Sunday was that 14-year-old Kara Borden had told her parents she was going to a sleepover party Saturday night. But when she was dropped off Sunday morning by 18-year-old David Ludwig, her parents awoke and Ludwig was summoned back to the house.

The neighbors heard that when Ludwig arrived to talk, Michael Borden told him to leave outside weapons he had with him.

Where did they sleep, Deadwood?

(Just an aside, kiddies. If an armed man brought my 14 year old daughter home from a "sleepover" - assuming I had been clueless enough to let her go in the first place - I'd have shot him dead as soon as I was sure my girl was safe and taken my chances with a jury of my peers in good ol' rock solid red Lancaster County.

Then (WTF??? I think "things" went wrong long before the shooting started, Skippy. This is the kind of nonsense you get when you give a word processing program to just any old fool off the street. I could tell you some horror stories about this newspaper. - F.G.) things went terribly wrong. Shooting ensued. Nine-year-old David Borden tried to escape from a side window of the home, neighbors heard, before running past his father's body in the foyer and out the front door to the neighbor's house across the street, where a boy his age lives.

The boy's father already had left for church, but his mother let David inside and called 911.

Their 15-year-old daughter, Katelyn, also ran to a neighbor's house. Police believe Kara left with the shooter. (Two of the Bordens' five children are grown and live out of state.)

Later, neighbors said, police retrieved the Bordens' dog from the house and took it to the children, who were with friends of the family.

Of course there are web sites involved:

Kara's Web Sites: Xanga MySpace
David's Web Site: MySpace

My favorite quote from Kara Beth's MySpace profile? "Books are gay."

That pretty much sums it up, eh, kiddies? (You'll have to take the word of Your Humble Servant on that one. It has been removed as has the 14 going on 17 lie. But hey, it's just the internet, after all. BTW, I'm 6'6".)

Tom and Kim Mannon would learn Sunday that the shooter was a boy who was a lifeguard at Lititz Rec Center along with their 16-year-old daughter, Stephanie. They had substituted for one another and been friendly until Ludwig left the job this summer to work at Circuit City, Stephanie said.

"He was dedicated to saving people's lives. I mean, that was his job; then this happened," Stephanie said. "I never would have expected this ever. I knew they both kind of liked each other, but I knew both their parents didn't allow them to date each other."

Stephanie said Kara and Ludwig met through a homeschoolers group.

Getting your kids out of the government schools is necessary, but not sufficient.

"He was a Christian and pretty strong about that," she said.

Guess again, princess. Exactly what number is that Thou Shalt Not Kill one? Perhaps Monterey Chapel (Cool name for a church, dude!) is too new to have gotten that far down the list yet.

Ludwig has an outgoing personality and is into music, Stephanie said. Some neighbors said Ludwig often wore black and had a "goth" look.

Several neighbors said the Bordens were committed to their church, Monterey Chapel, near Leola, where Michael Borden was an elder.

May God have mercy on the souls of Mr. and Mrs. Borden, young Mr. Ludwig, and Kara Beth.

To me, the most interesting part of the online newspaper article excerpted above is the comment section at the bottom. Notice how the great minds of Amish Country try to turn it into a left versus right thingee.

Obviously, it is a true belief versus a false belief thingee. And I've been saying that for longer than I care to remember.
