Quote:Those living near the church, which is a few miles away from the Leonard home, said they regularly heard 3 a.m. chants emanating from the home and rarely saw members outside of the building. Its gates were almost always shut. A police Special Weapons and Tactics team had to "secure the church grounds" and "make a tactical entry" into it Monday.
Humble said Tuesday evening that Bruce Leonard was "extremely antisocial" and religious. Neighbors said Deborah and her children were deferential to Bruce Leonard, but those neighbors never saw him raise his voice.
Deborah stayed home to school the kids, Humble and fellow neighbor James Constantine said. The family would never celebrate Christmas and holed themselves inside a pitch-black house during Halloween, they said. The youngest, a boy who is around about age 10, told them that "Christmas was bad," they said.
Humble said she often gave the kids videotapes of children's programming, hand-me-downs from her grandkids. They often couldn't watch them, she said.
"I gave them I don't know how many boxes of kids' tapes," she said. "They would not let them watch Mickey Mouse. They said Mickey Mouse was queer, because he never married Minnie Mouse."
