Down on bended knees
Alice and Reese had always placed more importance on their jobs than raising their son. Most of their parenting was done by babysitters. Their son Eric had spent more time at his grandparent's house than at home as a boy, making him grow up to be resentful of both of his parents.
The only time they spoke to him was when they blamed him for getting into trouble or when he was acting out. His father was the sheriff of the town where they lived while his mom worked as a doctor.
At the age of eighteen, he was arrested for possession of some illegal substances causing his father's reputation to take a huge hit.
His father was at work one day when he received a distress call regarding a breaking and entering. He arrived at the scene to find the armed suspect escaping. They both fired at each other until the burglar was hit. Keese went over to take off the mask only to see his son's face staring at him lifelessly. He dropped to his knees with tears flowing freely. He blamed himself for what his son had become and how he ended up taking his life.
