Boy accused of murder to spend Thanksgiving with mother - what a joke!

An 8-year-old boy accused of killing his father and another man in eastern Arizona will be allowed to spend Thanksgiving with his biological mother.

Judge Michael Roca on Wednesday agreed to allow the boy to leave juvenile detention from noon on Nov. 26 until noon on Nov. 28. The judge's decision came over the objection of prosecutors.

The boy faces two counts of murder in the Nov. 5 deaths of his father, Vincent Romero, and Timothy Romans, who was renting a room in the family's home in St. Johns.

The judge says that if the boy doesn't return to detention on time, arrest warrants will be issued for him and his mother. Roca ordered that there be no guns or knives in the home while the boy is free.

Until the killings, the boy was living with his father and stepmother.

This has to be the biggest joke! I know the court system is totally goofed up as it is, but give me a break! Letting this murderer enjoy a "Thanksgiving" has to be the most backwards ruling in the history of Arizona. Let's reward this murderer by letting him spend time with his family!?

Totally insane! The judge should be looked into for other cases where the law was not enforced appropriately.
