DePape had 'strong opinions' that differed from those of family members

Teresa DePape, the wife of the suspect's stepfather, told USA TODAY that she left the area about 20 years ago.

She didn't know David was violent. He was an aggressive speaker

The family had not been in regular contact with the suspect, but David sent an email to his mother two years ago indicating that he would visit.

Mark DePape said he hadn't spoken to his brother in a long time.

I haven't seen David in a long time. He doesn't get in touch with his family. I'm sorry to hear about it.

Teresa said that David's opinions differed from those of some family members.

Teresa said that David was a good kid. She thought DePape was a big fan of the Burning Man festival.

She wouldn't say what those views were.

She contacted law enforcement after fielding reporters' calls. She said that they confirmed that DePape was in jail. The family would wait until he reached out to them.

She hoped you found the truth.
