Am I being too optimistic?

I'm eager to find out about mother, though. She is a nursing assistant - I found that much - but not much more.

And I read that police today reported he called a friend to report he had just killed someone. So, if they are admitting that, given all the video evidence, there must be a lot more. Just my opinion, of course.

What little I've seen written pegs him as being so pro blue life, and very pro chumputin. I couldn't find anything about his father, only that his mom is a single mother. Where is the info?
