Duster's words hit impossibly closer to home than he could ever know. Jack listens in silence, but there is a burst of mixed rage and hearbreak inside of him when Duster says that the victim was only 12 years old. Focus, you're here to listen.
When he's positive that Duster is done, he softly speaks up. "I'm so sorry. That anybody should have to see a friend- a brother, a child, used in such a way." He is trying to hold back any note of disgust. "An enemy from without we'll all unite to fight, we've already proven that time and again. But if the enemy is wearing the face of one of our own? We'll hesitate."
"But for good reason. That force, it used him?" Guessing, even though Jack can't possibly know the specifics. "The boy was already dead, none of the fault lay with him." Extrapolate to the current situation..?
