  1. Appently Colt was being abused by his step-father just before the two planned the murder of Phillip Danner. The two teens had planned the shooting weeks in advance and after the incident tried to flee to Arizona to go and live with Colt's real father but never made it. According to the police there were three people involved but the third was not with Colt and Paul when the crime was comitted so he was ruled as a juvenile becasue he knew about the shooting of Phillip Danner. Colt wanted to get back at his step-father for the apparent abuse and dysfunctional family life. Paul was willing to help Colt because he too, was going through family issues.
