The Family That Preys Together, Stays Together

Just after learning that Larry Craig's daughter had an outstanding warrant on charges of breaking and entering and destruction of property, it comes out that his son, Michael, has had some troubles himself. On his record are two restraining orders. One resulting from his breaking his girlfriend's nose, and the other for beating his wife.

I would have said that Larry should have gone quietly and saved them all the unwanted attention, but both kids went on TV to defend him publicly, thereby drawing themselves into the limelight. (I wonder whose bright idea it was.)

Now Craig and his wife are having to go to the press with statements defending the kids. And, just for the record, I don't think there is any defense for the violently abusive son. This whole family needs a whole lot of professional help.


"We are family and we stay together through good times and bad." -- Michael Craig on Good Morning America
