John disputed that in his testimony, but said he said he carried a knife that he ditched (and was later found) in a snowpile outside the Straub home. His explanation for hiding it was because he didn't want to get caught with it when police arrived, due to his felony record. He also said his reason for having the knife was because he didn't trust Tiffany and Zach.
Thanks Mustang! Interesting that he brought a knife because he didn't trust those two kids who drove him to the scene.
Maybe he brought weapons because he knew his kid was in danger prior to arriving? I think there is more to this story than just assumptions made by the Clarkes; I think they knew something was wrong.
