Classic. This whole thing smelled to me like the same kind of relationship that Tom Hanks has with Chet.

To elaborate, there's an interview I saw of both Nick and Rob Reiner for the film they made together, and it was very clear that not only did the kid live in the giant shadow of his Hollywood star father, but as a kid felt small for his dad not being around much or doing a good job, and as an adult still felt small because every single adult he'd meet would instantly associate him with his famous film director and actor father. Engulfed in the shadows is what happens to a lot of these kids of famous artists.

Yeah, there was a picture from a month ago or so of the family and Nick looked haunted. Just clearly traumatized. Idk what went on behind closed doors but I know enough to look at the parents when a kid turns out so traumatized.

Listen. We don't know what happened. We can't just sit here and speculate that he was driven to murder based on x y or z with no knowledge of the situation, or judge individual pictures on how murder-y the people in them look.

This is really important. I see it all the time on the net and even on here very recently.

I don't want to irresponsibly pathologise but you can tell from eyes. they've got the same eyes as its that dead vacant soulless stare

and it's like, bruh, have you never had a bad photo taken? I've never had a good one ffs and I don't have "crazy eyes" or whatever the fuck people think they're able to intuit psychology from.

It's really gross.

Agreed, I don't think a facial expression in a single photo is really useful information to make any kind of analysis or determination here. Even if it were every photo, some people just don't like having their picture taken. This kind of speculation is just... well, speculation.
