    Wow, another Echols Scholar accused murderer. When I was an Echols Scholar, there were only freaks and geeks, not criminals.

    apparently these days it’s a fine line between freaks/geeks and murderers.

    “Soering was a Jefferson scholar, and Elizabeth Haysom was an Echols scholar.” Richmond T-D, Jan. 17, 2010.

    You were an Echols scholar? Then there’s a 50-50 chance you yourself are a muurderer.

    1960: Echols Scholar program founded.
    1985: Double parricide.
    2010: Patricide.

    That’s 25 years out of 50.

    Not to mention, most former Echols Scholars are criminals of some sort or another, mainly criminal lawyers.

    I don’t think colfer is an Echols Scholar.

    Colfer did use parricide correctly, which is impressive.
