Best case scenario, they really do want their daughter back and love her and do not wish to harm her, and they are getting portrayed as monsters by the girl's defense lawyer, which has to be doubly hard on them, so they need strength and comfort.
Worst case scenario, they really do wish their daughter harm, in which case they need to have their eyes opened and their hearts softened.
That's totally true. We need to pray for the whole family, and everyone else involved. This is the sort of thing that can have widespread and devastating consequences, especially since the thousands of people on the outside taking it to heart don't know all the details.

Do not be overrighteous, neither be overwise—
why destroy yourself?
Do not be overwicked, and do not be a fool—
why die before your time?
It is good to grasp the one and not let go of the other.
The man who fears God will avoid all extremes.
