While speaking with CNN affiliate Televisa, the mother, Adriana Martinez, becomes emotional as she tries to explain what made her son carry out the horrific attack.

She said, “I don’t know what he was thinking. He had his reasons for doing what he did. And please don’t judge him. I only want the innocent children to forgive me.” Martinez then shared a message to the families: forgive me, forgive my son. I know he has his reasons.”

In an earlier interview with ABC News, she defended her son saying her son was not a violent person but that he could “be aggressive.”

However, she went on to admit, “I had an uneasy feeling sometimes, like ‘what are you up to?” Adriana told ABC News’ Chief National Correspondent Matt Gutman in an interview at her home. “He can be aggressive… If he really got mad.”

Ramos’ father has also apologized saying the teen should have killed him instead.

He added that he doesn’t know when his son became so violent, but knows that his son grew frustrated with the COVID precautions about a month ago and refused to speak to him. His father said he has not seen him since.
