Since it was a knife he used, this won't be a big news story. Or hardly any news story. Young man allegedly kills older brother over $10
Both parties were in the wrong. Stealing from your brother is wrong. Killing your brother is wrong. But society in the 21st Century isn't built on morals. (Both of those are covered by the Ten Commandments, and other religious doctrines as well.) It also isn't built on rationality, only on emotion. He took ten bucks. The other guy was mad, and acted out. He regretted it immediately, but some things you can't take back.
Caleb Xavier Ingram, 21, stands accused of one count of murder, according to Madison County Sheriff’s Department records.
The defendant is believed to have almost immediately regretted the argument and the rare bout of violent rage, police say.
"Rare bout of violent rage," you say. I doubt that. I suppose it is possible, but most people don't go straight to murder. Over 10 bucks.
The incident occurred late in the evening on Oct. 30 at a residence on East Second Street in Anderson, a medium-sized city some 40 miles northeast of Indianapolis.
