DISTRICT HEIGHTS, Md.- A 12-year-old boy described by a neighbor as having a volatile temper was arrested in the deaths of his mother and younger brother at their apartment outside Washington, D.C.

Police released few details about the slayings, discovered Sunday, and declined to say how the victims died. The boy, whose name was not released because of this age, was scheduled to appear in juvenile court Monday afternoon.

"It apparently was a dosmestic dispute that turned deadly', said Cpl. Debbi Carlson, a police spokeswoman.

Katrina Denise Powe, 31, and her 9-year-old son, Mystery Toma Hillian, were found dead around 11 a.m. Sunday, and police took Powe's oldest son into custody, said Cpl. Clinton Copeland, of the Prince George's County Police Department.

Neighbors said the boy was known in the neighborhood for having a temper.
The suspect will fave juvenile charges, though it will be up to the state's attorney's office to determine them. He is currently being held at a juvenile facility.

I hate to say this, but parents are going to have to start being parents again, or looks like we are going to have a large number of "little" sociopaths turned loose on society.

I agree. its time parents stepped up! We must get to the old paths. Our society is in serious trouble. It seems people think they have the right to do whatever they want without any consequences. We have become so tolerant, that we will accept anything. Just think about homosexuality, its everywhere. 10 years ago it was rarely heard of, but now because it is accepted. More and more folks are CHOOSING that life style,,,and yes its a choice. Anyway, we must get back to the old paths.

I agree with the rest of you all. Much like homegrown said, homosexuality was unheard of 10 years ago, how taboo would it have been to have a movie such as brokeback?

At least they put laws in place like homosexuals can't marry, but I'm afraid that it's too late and a chain reaction has already been started that can't be stopped
