I'm so much shocked with this recent news in NY. Ugly Betty Actor Michael Brea kills his own mother using a samurai sword while reciting Bible Passages. The Neighbors heard these words yelled by Michael over and over again. "Repent, repent, Sinner, You never accepted Jesus" . After that, they saw Michael's mother dead. He is now under the custody of NYPD and will undergone psychiatric observation. I just cannot imagine that a son can do it with his mother.No matter what her mother have done, she still his mother. Besides, only God can take away our lives. A life without a mother is not an easy thing. So why he should kill his mother?

some people r so crazy that they kill the people who brought them into this life. y? no idea. some mothers r so crazy too that they torture their own kids ( achild called it).
i love my parents so much and cant imagine life without them. they love me no matter what and since i just had a baby, they r helping me take care of my 2 year old and the baby. some people dont have parents in their lives but i am blessed to have wonderful parents.

Maybe this son has some mental problems and that is why he killed his mother. If he mentaly unstable we will find out soon. People are killed for all reasons. People commit murder for a lot of reasons! Jealousy,anger,abuse,for the fun of it,money and power are some reasons murder is commited. Losing a mother to Althzeimer's is not an easy thig to deal with either! I know! It happen to me!

Read the greek mythology entitled "Oresteia", yes it's twisted and sad. I for one love my mother, and can't think of ever hurting her. Matricide and Patricide in history and mythology are the worst of all crimes. I don't know if he could ever be forgiven for it, but only God knows so I won't presume to judge.

He is probably criminally insane and that depends on the information. It is not that his mother gave him life and went through extreme labor and that no matter how horrible she was, that he could not kill here It depends on the circumstances.
If she bugged him or when he asked her if she would become a Christian, then she threw things at him, tore his bible, or did things like, then we would assume that he went temporary insane. If she attacked him with the intent to kill him and he took up the Samuri sword and whack, then that would be understandable.
However if they were having a quiet talk and she showed no threat, well then he is criminally insane, a murderer, and should be in prison or in an insane asylum for the rest of his life. That is what makes me furious if that happened.
I wish you had put a link to the article so we could find out what happened. .

Hello rhizjen.......That was very sad, but you know what, I am not surprised at all. Today we have come to such a stage where anything is possible. Today we are seeing things which our fore-fathers would have never imagined.
You are surprised that son killed his mother, but you will be even more shocked if I will tell you how many cases have happened recently in my country where mothers have killed their own innocent children.....the word "MOTHER", so pure, so respectful,so loving...has now changed its meaning to cruel cold blooded murderers. One killed her children strangling them while they were asleep, one pushed her daughter from 4th floor window, other one forgot child in the car....one more killed her children as she had no money!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Rhizjen....nothing now surprises me.....we are living in world which is full of sin and crime.....this world is now not worth living. I think we should stop bringing more children to this world. Makes me feel so depressed and sad.

I am like you I don't see how anybody can kill their parents who gave them life but there is some like that out there I don't think they ever figured out when the mendez brothers killed their parents it makes no sense to me it seems like we are supposed to love them.

OMG (Oh My God)
God Please Forgive Him For What He Have Done To Her Mother.
Was He Psycho or Loss His Sense? I Don't Know What To Say. I Hope He Will Be Punished Sooner.

It's because he was not in his right mind. He was possessed by the devil and being so obsessed with the Bible, it went through his head and turned him into a mad person. This person needs to be pitied. We shouldn't just judge him because from the facts that you've mentioned, it is very obvious that he's mentally ill.
He was having a difficult time and he was needing some guidance and he couldn't have gotten it from the right person! His mom was just a victim and I know that he wasn't aware of all the horrible things he did when he comes to his senses.
This is a horrible news and this is telling us something. If God can do things in mysterious ways, so can the devil!

Very sad story. It is very hard to understand why anyone would take the life of another with no apparent reason, even harder to accept the idea of someone take his mothers life. But the brain is so complex that we haven't even scratched the surface while studying human behavior. Who knows what was going through his mind when he did this. He is not the only one. Unfortunately this has been happening all over the world. You read all kinds of horrible stories in the news every day. Any way, only after a psychological evaluation will the authorities know what happened.
