I wonder if I'm the only one who finds the similarities between this 
case and the notorious James Bulger murder in Britain to be absolutely 
eerie.

When I heard about how the boy had been killed, and the circumstances of 
his abduction, I immediately thought that the culprits must be boys not 
many years older than the victim. How we find out that a 12-year-old boy 
appears to be responsible. Creepy.
