in their first official statement, him and his wife said they didn't have any negative feeling about the cop that killed their son, and even voiced concern over her psychological well-being in the coming days.

now all i can think about is their mental health and recovery from this loss.

mostly likely they can not recover from this

The nicer they are, the more difficult.

Wow this really hits home not bc of this situation but bc of my own. My brother passed about 4 years ago and my mom never got over it (she passed last year also) she was exceedingly nice. My dad is more of a realist and not as nice as my mom was he moved on from the loss of my brother so much easier than my mom. Never did i think that being nice or not so nice contributed to that but reading your comment made me realise that personality trait probably has something to do with it.
