Which high school friend took a path you didn't expect?

About six years after graduation, a guy who used to bully me in high school went missing for some time before he was found dead. I didn't investigate it much more than these websites, but long story short, he got into a fight with two brothers over "slashed tires" and they killed him and dumped his body in a lake.

"When investigators searched the house where the fight is believed to have taken place, they found bloodstained towels, brass knuckles, burned shoes and other evidence of foul play. In July 2008, the Salinsky brothers both pleaded guilty to a reduced charge of aggravated manslaughter."

"Carl Knight's mother, Debra Knight cried, dabbing her eyes with tissue, as Judge Eric DuTemple instructed the brothers of their rights.

When he asked how they pleaded to voluntary manslaughter, they each said "guilty" quietly and without showing emotion.

'Spineless pigs,' Debra Knight called out when the brothers were led out of the courtroom past her in shackles and red jumpsuits."
