A young high school drop out, only 17 years old in age killed four people over the winter holidays. They were stapped, shot and bludgeoned. Three of the victims were in a jewelry merchant's home. Jaquan Clark, riding in a passanger in a vehicle, was found with a loaded .357 - caliber Magnum. He was chraged with four counts of second-degree murder. His fingerprints matched the fingerprints found at the murder sight of the three victims that were killed on December 26th. The bodies of those three victims were found near his brothers home the next day.
The 17 year old suspect was also accused of killing a 37 year old on the sidewalk in a Rochester neighborhood. he was shot and collapsed in a driveway that was nearby and found the next morning.
The police tried to determine a reason behind the murders, a motive. Why were these 4 victims targeted? But no motive was reached. The only answer was that it was a "cold-blooded murders".
I can't even begin to understand why a 17 year old would do this. What may have happened to him thoughout his life to drive him to do these horrific crimes? The mayor of the town, and a formor police said, "I cant get out of my mind why a 17 year old was involved in four cold blooded murders." To me, its very evident that the child has grown up in a rough life. He chose to drop out of school in the 10th grade. Being a high schooler, and a 17 year old, i feel that i should maybe be able to relate, but i will never be able to understand what could cause a person to do this. Expecially at such a young age.
