Roberto Peredes you took our loved ones away. You took our sister Yohana and our brother Isia. Bana is still in the hospital, it isn't fair what you did to them, what you did to us. We are all suffering because of you. Do you get that? You're off free and you killed 2 innocent people, they had their whole lives ahead of them. She was 17 years old. 17. And he was one day away from turning 17. They were bright, young, smart individuals who would've thought this would be the last thing that would happen to them. You have killed 2 people and sent the 2 others to the hospital. Have you comprehended this? No you haven't, have you took responsibility for your actions, no you haven't.
