People closest to Logan described his as a depressed teen stuck between divorced parents who didn't agree on many aspects of raising him.

Action News Jax learned from investigators in the courtroom last month, that Logan, who was 15 at the time of the murder, was part of a communist chat group online.

Investigators believe he wanted to run away, eventually ending up in Russia, and his grandmother got in the way of it, so that's why he killed her.

Logan's father said he had no idea about the online chat group, but knows his mother, Kristina, loved Logan very much.
