Man killed his daughter and six grandchildren By: Ruby Aguilar, 5th period
The man killed his own daughter and 3 girls and 3 boys which were his grandchildren. After he killed them, he called 911 at around 4 a.m., and then killed himself. The man in, 2003, was sentenced for 3 years in prison for ''accidentally'' killing his son in a hunting accident. He was also charged with possession of firearm by convicted felon.

I find this situation so horrible. Not only the part of ''accidentally'' killing his own son. I also find it stupid that someone would kill 7 others and then kill themselves. Why cut their lives short and then yours too when if the person is not happy they can simply leave.

I find this horrific, they should have done a more thorough investigation into his sons "accidental" death. Seeing news stories like this makes me sick and wonder what type of world we live in.. -Sophia Maas 2nd period
ReplyDeletei can't even imagine a situation this unbearable. so incredibly sad
ReplyDeleteThis is crazy. Some warning signs should have been present when he "accidentally" killed his son. He murdered the whole family and then himself showing he was guilty. All I can think about is whether the children saw it all happen and why the children in the first place.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Laura. I don't understand why this man was let out of jail in the first place. This woman was crazy to let him stay with her knowing that he killed her brother.
ReplyDeleteThe authorities were clearly out of their mind when they let him out of prison. The woman is probably out of her mind too. I hope that people can learn form this and not let something like this happen again.
