17 year old teenager Ryder admitted in court on Friday that he wanted to hire a hit man to kill both his parents for confiscating his Playstation.
Ryder told one of his mother's friends how angry he was and what he was going to do next, which was he wanted his parents dead, this led the woman to contact the police and inform them about what Ryder decided to do next. Ryder was then informed that a hit man is waiting for him at a hotel, that's where Ryder offered his father's pick up truck in exchange for the killing. Ryder said "Two bullets is all it takes". So Ryder was serious about taking out his parents once and for all. Although the hit man that was waiting for Ryder was an undercover officer.
Ryder told authorities that he wanted his parents dead because they grounded him for weeks not allowing him to watch television nor play Playstation and kicked him out of the house.
Ryder has history of bad and inappropriate behaviour of where he smashed a fire extinguisher and broke into a local fairground.
Soon after Ryder was sent on probation he discontinued school and stole his sister's piggy bank which contained $45.
In Leonardtown, Maryland, a 17-year-old boy admitted in court Friday to trying to hire a hit man to kill his parents after he reportedly became angry at them for confiscating his PlayStation.

No finalblade, I mean that doing that makes roughly the same amount of sense.
This isn't Sony's fault so how could you possible blame them for this. This guy is a ranging lunatic, another case of mental instability, People like this should not get there hand on video games.
You idiot.
He stole 45 bucks form his sisters piggy bank!? XD Oh man, this is so stupid, this has to be fake, the link to the source doesnt even exist.
Still the way this kid went in going with this really must be stupid, its like telling the cops personally im going to rob the bank at 2:00 pm, why in gods name would even announce it, does this kid really want to get in trouble. Well I agree with Seeker X on this he should at least get 2 years in prison.
I'm with the mum on this, charge him as an adult. Murder is not something to kid around with, not in the way he went about it. I think it's pretty sad for the bloody kid to also be writing letters saying "I love you mum!" and all that, since obviously he just wants to get out of it. *bleep*ing lil prick, I hope he gets a few years and learns some things in prison.
Not that that's a good thing, but still...
