Rancagua, Chile, quite ignorant of the fact that he had even been arrested for murder.

I remember coming home a month and a half later and my older brother telling me the whole story and thinking I had just woken up in some weird dream. It just didn't seem real at all. Still doesn't. I haven't really watched any documentaries or anything. Just the typical late night TV jokes and occasional news story about it. Still doesn't seem real.
