вЂ¦ It was disturbing and sad to see all of this in front of me, right? Then IвЂ™m thinking, ah, somehow or another I have to talk to this lady who is in hysterics.

вЂњI showed up with my camera and there was this 16-year-old boy dead on the front lawn of this house and his mother and sister were in hysterics and I pulled up with my camera to take pictures of it and I was supposed to interview the mom or get some sound from there,вЂќ Konrad said, noting the mother and daughter were distraught and he felt shamed by the assignment.

Only 22-years-old at the time, Konrad said he felt disturbed and shamed to ask the distraught and grieving mother about her sonвЂ™s death as the boyвЂ™s body was on the front lawn of the womanвЂ™s home.
