Give me a break. Okay it was a horrible crime but to tear it up is just stupid. Wisconsin people, have you lost your mind?

Only in America would people think it is so terrible to tear down a house which had such a horrific legacy. I grew up in Crandon and walked past this house many many times as a kid. How do you laugh at this horrible tragedy. Tearing down the house hurt no one and the owner was paid for the house by the residents of Crandon. It was the right decision. The tragedy will still never be forgotten. My heart goes out to the Families, and the people of Crandon. ;-(

@ghpatriot it hurt to walk passed that house. I walked passed it every day it was there after the shooting and i stood there and cried.

To those of you wicked, self-centered individuals who scoff at this town's decision to remove that house....... If your brother, sister, son daughter, aunt, uncle, grandparent or grandchild were murdered in cold blood in a house down the street from where you live would you feel okay walking or driving by it everyday of your life. Could you look over at the place where they died and not be given a daily reminder of your loss and heartache? Think of this before berating the people of Crandon.
