PALM BEACH, Fla., Oct. 13 (UPI) -- A Miami couple at the center of two lawsuits denied they were responsible for their mentally ill son's alleged violent rampage that left four people dead.
In a statement released by their attorney, Michael and Carole Merhige said it is "absurd" to believe they somehow knew their son Paul would harm family members, The Palm Beach (Fla.) Post reported Wednesday.
