Police say the teen gunned down his parents Ryan and Elena Callens, age 48 and 49, in their home in Frisco, Texas, about 2am Monday. The 16-year-old, whose name was not released, was prohibited from drinking soda, had all of his online activities monitors and wasn’t allowed to watch any R-rated movies. The PG-13 films he watched were screened to remove sex, violence and other adult content.

Shocking: Ryan and Elan Callens, 48 and 49, were killed by their youngest son at 2am on Monday, police say. Neighbors say the parents were ‘strict’ with the 16-year-old
Mr Callens owned his own company, Callens Innovation Group, and Mrs Callens homeschooled the teenage suspect. Police have no motive in the murders
Jonathan Marcum, 15, who played with the teenage suspect, said the Callens closely monitored what their son did online and restricted what he was allowed to watch and even what he ate, according to the Dallas Morning News. ‘They didn’t allow any PG-13 movies, and if they did they would have it on Clear Play, which would take all the violent moments and skip it,’ Marcum told KXAS-TV. ‘So there was pretty much no violence in that family.’ Teens in the neighborhood said the Callens were very strict with the 16-year-old suspect and that any time the teen broke the rules, he would be punished. ‘His parents were really uptight on him,’ William Castillo, who played sports with the boy, told the Morning News. Neighbors say the boy went to public elementary school and middle school. However, his parents kept him out of the classroom and homeschooled him instead of sending him to high school. One neighbor said the teen preferred it that way and that he said he’d ‘never go back’ to school.
The murders shook up the quiet, middle-class neighborhood in Frisco, Texas, where the Callens lived. The family, even the teenage suspect, was well know to their neighbors as friendly
Authorities removed several bags of evidence from the home, including a computer. They worked at the crime scene until well into the evening
Neighbors say they had no indication anything was wrong with the teen. One neighbor boy said ‘There was pretty much no violence in the home’
The boy was the youngest of the Callens’ five children. He has two siblings who are in college, one who just finished college and an older sister who attends Centennial High School in Frisco. At least one sibling was home at the time, but was not hurt, authorities say.
Neighbors in the middle-class neighborhood were shocked by the murders, according to KTVT. They say the teen was a ‘good kid’ and that the Callens were friendly fixtures in the neighborhood, where they have lived for eight years. ‘From what we saw, he had a very good heart,’ Nikki Williston, 15, told the Morning News. Authorities have not said where the teen got the gun he used to kill his parents. Neighbors say they don’t believe the Callens owned a firearm.
Mr Callens owned his own company, The Callens Innovation Group, which he operated out of his home in Frisco. Police worked at the house until well into the evening on Monday – removing several bags of evidence, including at least one computer. Police said they do not have a motive in the killing.
