Halo Murderer Daniel Petric

Daniel Petric, for those who haven’t turned on a television in a while, is the Ohio teen who shot and killed his mother over a dispute involving Halo 3. Well Daniel was convicted of aggravated murder, attempted aggravated murder, and other charges related to the heinous crime.

As the story goes, Petric purchased himself a copy of Halo 3 even after his parents’ Mark and Susan had expressly forbid him to do so.
