ALBUQUERQUE (KRQE) - Family members of Nehemiah Griego, the teen accused of killing his father, mother and three siblings , are vowing to support him.
    
A week and a half ago, the 15-year-old allegedly shot his mother Sarah, then brother and two sisters in their south valley home.
    
Deputies say he waited for his father Greg to return home from a job at the Albuquerque Rescue Mission and then killed him.
    
Tuesday his sister told the Associated Press Nehemiah made a terrible mistake and she isn't sure why he did it, or if he had a mental breakdown.
    
The family says his parents would have wanted him to have a fair trial.
