I'm furious! How dare Anthony Spinella come onto the show and think that he has a right to put ALL of the blame onto Richard Day, when, in reality, it was Anthony and his brothers ( mostly Anthony) who drove Richard to the breaking point in all of this??! My God, in his interview on the show, he ( even to this day ), sounds like a BULLY, saying how he and his brothers had enjoyed pissing Richard off and calling him names! No, I'm not excusing what Richard did. He snapped and he killed Robert, Anthony's Uncle, with his vehicle, and there's NO excuse for what he did. It's too bad that he made that fateful decision that night to go over there, but he did, and he had to pay the consequences for his actions. But, you know, Anthony's mother, and the other adults in that family, should have been teaching those boys to be respectful to all people, instead of allowing them to bully people! According to the show, the mother didn't do a darn thing to disciplined those teenage boys! She just allowed them to go out on their bikes and do whatever they wanted to do! And then she would get pissed and yell when Richard Day accused them of stealing! When Walter's bike was stolen, didn't that mother notice that her son had a bike that didn't belong to him? Didn't she pay ANY attention to those boys at all, and teach them manners and to be respectful? Yes, Richard SHOULD HAVE JUST LET IT GO, and not let the BULLIES get to him. Yes, he was at fault for much of this, and yes, he was the only one responsible for the death of Robert. But if those kids hadn't put it all into action, and purposely taunted Richard and bullied both Richard and Walter, NONE of this would have ever happened in the first place. They ARE partly responsible.
I feel bad for Walter and his mother. The interview that Walter gave on the show, showed compassion and truth. The bad decision that he made that night to go with his dad will forever be with him. The innocent victims in all of this were Walter, his mother, and Robert. May Robert rest in peace.
