As always my biggest problem with murder suicide is the order.
How do you shoot a fucking kid, and then, in the time it takes to find the next kid, NOT have realized what a fucking fucked up thing you’re doing and instead shoot yourself, but rather look that next young child in the eyes (or on their sleeping serene form) and then pull the trigger? I can’t even.
The fact that you can handle a gun better than your husband is awesome.
People can change quite a bit. Before having our son my wife was carefree and a very strong and independent women. After giving birth, where we almost lost our son, she had post natal depression and then when our son was 3 he went sepsis and just about died. She now hates doing most of the stuff she did before giving…
Andrea Yates, I believe her name was. I remember watching that story unfold and just feeling sick to her stomach. That woman needed and deserved so much more help than she got, and her kids were the victims of that lack of access to proper healthcare, and too few resources to watch her/her family. Horrifies me to this…
I don’t know who killed this family (mom or dad), but I can speak to the UNBELIEVABLE stress that a serious, long term illness can bring to the family. Unless you have been through it it is impossible to verbalize the effects.
I agree, particularly given that somebody called the cops after the mother missed a single lunch. I think that indicates a level of preexisting concern about the family.
Family annihilators are overwhelmingly men. Actually most are in the 30s too, oddly enough. Fits the damn profile. It’s like when MRAs, etc bring up female rapists and female serial killers: sure they exist, but they’re so rare as to be even statistically insignificant. It’s just a fucking derail every time. This man…
You can make good choices and then have a crises happen that changes you and/or your partner. I think better healthcare could have helped them, but who knows.
Nope, but fuck you very much you judgy cow.
Police arrived at the Shorts’ Sinking Spring home after a concerned relative alerted them that Megan had failed to show up for a scheduled lunch date
Over 10 years ago, the secretary to the dentist I went to as a kid was murdered by her son (and they lived in my neighborhood area). I went to school with and was friends with her daughter, and after this happened, she disappeared, went in to hiding.
I want to write something rabidly pro-gun-control, pro-universal-healthcare, pro-domestic-violence-training-for-police-officers, but words are failing me. These kids had a right to grow up happy and healthy with happy, healthy parents who loved them. At least one of their parents failed them, but we as a society also…
A sick child like this is an enormous stressor for the most stable and secure of marriages. However, I’m sick to death of reading about entire families being wiped out by a man (presumably) who was under stress and/or abusive. A girl I grew up was murdered by her husband last year. He was apparently abusive for years.…
I have friends who moved from Massachusetts to Minnesota with an infant, a dog, 2 cats, and 2 beehives. One adult drove one car with the baby and the dog, towing a U-Haul trailer with most of their stuff, and the other drove herself with the cats (who were sedated with Valium most of the way) and the bees in another…
Think he's got life insurance?
My husband cheated on me when I was pregnant. Thank god, I didn’t find out until two years later. A woman is very vulnerable when she is pregnant and right after she gives birth. No woman should have to face that during those months.
I wouldn’t say anything, at least right now. Channeling Dan Savage here, but what if they have an open relationship and she hasn’t told you? What if she gave him permission this one time? Maybe he’s just trolling for chicks and has no intention of actually hooking up with anyone?
