Default Family tragedy in my town

It all kicked off in Melton Mowbray a couple of nights ago and some of you may have seen it on the news.

It happened a few doors down from where I used to live and has shocked the town.

The guy is a similar age to me but I did'nt know him, usual village rumors are flying around about the reason for his dismissal (affairs etc) but I feel for the surviving kids, they have a huge amount to deal with and will need a lot of support.

Yeah, saw this on the news tonight. Can never understand why anyone would do something like this to their own family. Terrible.

I bet thats what he would have said a few days ago.....

In some ways I think we all have the potential to do it, we just need the right switch flicked on our minds.

If we think of the brain as a thousands and thousands and thousand or wires. If we touch the right (or wrong!) 2 together, we will end up doing some crazy **** that we don't understand. We don't know what will drive us to it, until it happens. Maybe you catch your wife sucking on your neighbours pecker?

My sisters ex is a copper n had an affair and his boss told my sister that's his private life so the force won't get involved...

Why he took the whole family is just selfish and hope he goes to hell...

By that token are you excusing heinous acts as above on the grounds of diminished responsibility? What next paedophiles and rapists given the same licence?
Irrespective of circumstances there is no excuse/reason for anyone to commit such crimes. Those that do are just ticking time bombs, and akin to a dangerous animal should be put down immediately.

I think the Police should have investigated his reasons for abusing the PCN, a thorough interview/mental analysis would have revealed his reasons and subsequently should have been given help. The sacking pushed him over the edge

What a complete tragedy for everyone

No that's not what I am saying.

I'm not excusing anything. Just trying to understand why someone would flip.

I'd suggest paedos and rapists did not do the act on the spur of the moment.

The implication is that his family just wont going to survive without him and/or he s a pyscho - neither of which appear to be true

Heinous crime in my book

What an awful story
How on earth are the surviving children going to cope with this. Losing their Mum and Sister, by the hand of their Father. Tragic

Anybody who kills someone in Melton would be killing their own family anyway, what a crap hole. I live 15 mins away and avoid the place like the plague, almost as inbred as Newark

Awful story mind.

It is difficult to imagine how anyone could do that to his family. He must have been seriously unhinged mentally.

What also worries me is that there seems to be more of such evil actions being carried out these days.

Can't say davegtt, but how could such dreadful occurrances be hidden from general knowledge?
