Teen kills 4-year-old Sister To Protect Her?

A teen tells police he murdered his sister with a knife to protect her from sexual abuse.

While one teen was playing a video game, 18-year-old Keith Randulich held down his 4-year-old sister Sabrina in the basement and slashed her throat. Earlier in the day he wanted his Mom to buy him a gun but they had gotten into an argument over it.

Oh No! That's a sign of disturbing violence. Terrible for the son to do that to his baby sister. Terrible!

JOLIET -- Though Keith Randulich told police he slit his 4-year-old half sister's throat after failing to get a gun he could use to kill someone he believed was molesting the girl, authorities say there was no sign Sabrina Clement was the victim of sexual abuse.

Will County Coroner Patrick O'Neil, whose office performed an autopsy on Sabrina, said Monday there was no evidence she was molested.

"As part of the autopsy protocol, especially when under these particular circumstances, that was looked at very closely, and there's no evidence of any abuse along those lines," O'Neil said.

His office gathered evidence for a sexual assault kit, which the coroner gave to Mokena police for testing.

Randulich, 18, 19433 York Drive, pleaded innocent Monday in Will County Court to two counts of first-degree murder. He wore glasses and sat shackled with several other Will County Jail inmates after Judge Richard Schoenstedt called his case. Randulich remains in jail on $10 million bail.

"It was me," Randulich told police when they came to his family's home May 22 and found him covered in blood, according to a search warrant affidavit Mokena police filed June 9.

Randulich told police he wanted to kill a person he thought had been molesting his sister for two years. He got a firearm owners I.D. card and asked his mother to buy him a gun, according to the affidavit.

When she refused, they argued, so she left her 16-year-old son in charge of the little girl while she and her husband went to her 14-year-old son's school, the affidavit continued.

Randulich said the person he believed was abusing his sister was too big to kill without a gun, the affidavit said, so he decided to slit his sister's neck. He called 911, saying he "murdered his sister with a knife," the affidavit said.

Mokena police Cmdr. Dan Rankovich said he could not say if details Randulich told police were credible. The investigation could wrap up this week, he said. Randulich is due in court July 20.

I'd be skeptical of his mental health, also. I'd expect an insanity plea.

Sounds like he killed his sister because HE was molesting her and didn't want her ratting him out. The story he is giving is just to strange.

I didn't think of it that way....good point

I thought it sounded more like maybe he had been molested and convinced himself that it would happen to the sister.

either way it's so sad

I have to say, if my son were asking for a gun, I would not be leaving him alone with siblings before I got him some help
