Are you sure they were murdered through witchcraft? Witchcraft shares one thing with religion and that is that it makes claims of being able to perform the extraordinary, but it never really happens. What I am saying is that witches are not able to do anything you and I can not do. Period.
If your parents were murdered, the police will investigate and prove what really happened so that they can prosecute. If your parents died of natural causes, even at an untimely age, you do not need to blame witchcraft. Things like this do not happen.
