On May 24 Breitbart News reported that Peter Rodger–father of Santa Barbara attacker Elliot Rodger–released a statement through his attorney supporting gun control.
Now Jenni Rodger, aunt of Santa Barbara attacker Elliot Rodger, has added her voice to the politicization of Elliot’s heinous crimes.
According to The Independent, Jenni Rodger spoke from France, where she expressed condolences to the victim’s families then began criticizing U.S. gun laws: “I can’t imagine how awful this must be for the families of those killed. My heart goes out to them. I don’t know how on earth a sick, disturbed young man was able to get hold of a gun.”
She said her nephew was “always a disturbed child” and “something has to be done about gun laws in America.”
Three of Elliot Rodger’s victims were killed with knives, not guns.
