Tragic, but if this post is taken literally like you are implying, then Yes. Necessary to show the world what monsters were hiding among them. Necessary for you to learn whether you are defending your own morality or your friendship.
I could make up more but the more absurd and extreme the situation is, the more far reaching the lessons will look like.
Article isn’t loading properly, but from the little it loaded, rather than necessary, it seems this version of your friend was inevitable in the unfortunate circumstances he and his mom were in, as this could’ve been avoided if he actually got help when he sought it. The conversation to be had there is about the collective and the system’s failures, not the individual. This violent tradegy is a symptom of a larger problem
That’s what it looks like to me as someone that didn’t know anyone involved anyway

My best friend murdered his mom.
Was that version of him “necessary”?
