Andy Rhaburn’s Big Sister Wants Answers On Why He Killed Their Mother
posted (January 23, 2018)
26 year old murder suspect Andy Rhaburn is recovering in the Northern Regional Hospital after police shot him in the arm and hip yesterday. The cops say he came out of the bushes on the outskirts of Carmelita village with a machete which is when they shot him.

Rhaburn is accused of doing the almost unthinkable: killing his own mother Braulia Pech with a crowbar one week ago. That event has destroyed his family - and today via phone his sister Clarita Rhaburn said that she still has questions for her little brother:...

Interviewer
"Can you tell us what are the family's feelings now that he's been captured?"

Voice of: Clarita Rhaburn, Sister of the accused/daughter of deceased
"Well, for them, he's dead. For them, he doesn't exist."

Interviewer
"Has anyone from the family had the time to speak to him?"

Clarita Rhaburn
"No. No one. No one has spoken to him. We just saw him from far. We saw him and he was screaming in pain."

Interviewer
"What would you like to talk to him, ask him about?"

Clarita Rhaburn
"I would like to ask him why he did this to my mother. What forced him to do it? I don;' understand. I don't get the explanation why he did this to my mother. It's something hard because he is our little brother and he is someone who took the life of his own mother. It's hard."

According to his sister, Rhaburn is expected to be released from the hospital by the weekend - which is when he will face murder and other charges.
