It seems like Bonds was in a difficult situation: (1) a 19 yr. old solely "in charge" for the park authority, (2) a large party, apparently ignoring park rules that required that the site be vacated and cleaned up well before the stabbing incident occurred, (3) Bonds called police earlier, but, according to the police, the dispute was "resolved", when apparently it wasn't, (4) according to other reports, Bonds called his park authority supervisor several times to apprise her of the situation. There's no excuse for what he did; but, it seems to me, that the park authority (leaving a 19 yr. old solely in charge and not responding to his calls for help) and the police (declaring the situation "resolved" and leaving) may share some responsibility in this tragic murder.
