Ubi bene ibi patria
"Like many middle-class, suburban American parents, Shannan and Joey Troiano worried about their son’s behaviour and his bad grades at high school. And like many wayward teenagers, Cory Ryder was grounded for weeks at a time, had a PlayStation confiscated and was banned from watching TV.

Less typically, this 16-year-old was plotting to murder his parents by hiring a hitman, while his mother was organising a sting operation involving a police officer posing as a contract killer.

Cory’s trial is scheduled to begin today at the circuit court in St Mary’s County, Maryland. His mother is expected to testify as a witness for the prosecution.

:lol: 4 or more threads about this. Let's hope the sentencing gets him some mental health help. He can be held until only 21, thanks to Judge Abrams :duh:

Another fine example of "spare the rod, spoil the child".

They just had his lawyer on The Morning Show and talking about the case. Who would have thought he'd get 15 min of fame for his stunt.
