Those cover most of this kind of thing.. it’s an affront to God and Christ to take a life, to commit adultery, to bear false witness, be jealous, steals etc. I am not sure what happened with this couple but truly becoming a Christian is more than just saying it and going to church. It should mean a rejection of world ways and sin to the best of one’s ability. As one grows in maturity, the sins should be lessened because the desire is to follow God’s ways and not one’s own and to repent for any sins and be determined to not keep doing them. Crimes of passion or emotional dis regulation may be more accurately placed at demonic or evil doorsteps than that of Our Creator. At least this is what I have discerned thus far in life. Regardless of one’s belief, it’s sad we have generally as humanity lost common sense and decency and most of all compassion for our fellow beings. I live in USA where we have freedom of religion and as a believer I know that God gives us free will, so I respect that. I do however see so many people do not understand that Our Father loves us and He wants our love and respect. So much is really twisted

She was probably sleeping with half of the neighborhood. He woke up. Saw it on her phone and decided to take things into his own hands. He didn't just wake up and decide to take him and his wife out. I guarantee she sucked the life out of him for years
There is so little respect for the family. Between the comments, people are making on YT and the media harassing them. Very disappointed in the people that exist today.
Everybody's so fast to blame him. But what happened to get it to this point? Everybody's trying to label him as an abuser. But only one person has been to jail and it was her for a domestic violence. So there's that... Her own son even said that she was the one that yelled and screamed and cursed and threw things all over the house and broke things. But I know it was alllll him. She was angelic.
@@Lbhacksaw The cause of the selfish act of violence could have been as a result of a betrayal of the marriage vows .. so marriage may have been a big part.
Unfortunately, this is becoming way too common. This is heartbreaking 💔. We don't know what is going on inside someone's mind or home. This is why when I am out in public like the grocery store, I always try to smile and say, "How are you?". Just giving a simple hello, a smile, how are you, how are you today, or something like that could change someone else's day or mindset at that moment. Just all of us being little nicer and respectful we could make our world a lot better and more pleasant to live in. Sending prayers and love to this family 🙏 ❤. This is a devastating time for them all. I know how something like this can be so tragic and start so many more issues within the family. I know someone that this same kind of thing happened in his family with his grandfather and grandmother. It was so heartbreaking and devastating for their family 💔.

Hey suffered from depression for many, many years. I put a toll on their marriage it is said amongst closest friends that she was talking about leaving him. If you have survived the abuse, the most deadly time is when you try to leave it's also not that simple. I was married to an abuser on last year the police were called and I had bruises on my arms and I was in a complete mess. I went to a domestic violence shelter and while I was there my husband threw everything I owned into the trash. After a month of being in the shelter I had to leave because you're only allowed 30 days and I had nowhere to go. I took the police back to the home to get my belongings and discovered that in fact everything I owned was gone. The only clothes I had was what I had placed into a pillowcase when I went to the shelter. That was just over a year ago and I'm still homeless. I've been unable to find a place that I can afford. I wished I had stayed with him. The hardship of being homeless without food or being able to take care of the simple things has Spencer difficult
I know this man. He was a teacher at the Missionary Training Center 30 years ago. He was the kindest, smartest guy ever. I do not believe this man was an abuser. I think he was depressed and had no way out in his mind.
So terrible but do not say now you wished you had stayed with your abuser, at least you still have life and where you have life, there is hope as you my have been a statistic by now like this case, so never give up or go back, move on and try to get a job, there is something out there waiting for you to do to make it in life! Keep having faith and pray that a door will be opened!
So in other words, KSL admitted that their reporter is an insensitive nuisance in contacting the daughter. So the sheriff's plea to leave the family alone didn't apply to you, right?!
I suspect he was a family annihilator if the daughter was home she would be dead too. Husband probably was in financial ruin and couldn't keep up or love with the lie any longer
more likely she was cheating on him and wanted a divorce. threatened to take the children away from him. The one thing that will push a father to the brink is too threaten him by taking away his children.
Reporters believed the family would like to expose their raw ripped souls to comment to a community of strangers but oddly, the family wasn't feeling up to it. So glad reporters tried though, hate to not give the grieving family the opportunity to lay bare those gaping wounds that they so often want to share. How thoughtful.
It's ashame some folks think God can't help them and therefore instead of praying for God's help they take their lives by suicide . I'm so sorry for their children.
@@wyleecoyotee4252 statiscally there has been a significant increase in ex-husband suicides and reduction in wife deaths wherever No Fault Divorce has been enacted.
As with anything like this, unless there is a letter we probably wont know what caused him to take this terribly drastic action. I hope the family can eventually find peace. This is such a tragedy.
We could use more context with this type of reporting. Was there an affair? We're there financial issues? Was he known to be controlling, or was she for that matter?
I hate to say it because there have been steps to improve things but i still feel like if this state took domestic violence issues more seriously instead of there continuing to be an archaic history of one sex reigning syperior in this state, things like this would happen far less.

This is BEYOND heartbreaking and now there are SIX kids left without parents!

@@PhillYang so you are assuming they weren't involved in their church community? I find it's the deeply faithful who decimate their families.
@@myswanktrendzChrist is the church.. believers are the many membered body.
Many so called believers are fakes or deceived: under strong delusion.
Someone who is deeply faithful would be compelled to keep God’s commandments. Those cover most of this kind of thing.. it’s an affront to God and Christ to take a life, to commit adultery, to bear false witness, be jealous, steals etc. I am not sure what happened with this couple but truly becoming a Christian is more than just saying it and going to church. It should mean a rejection of world ways and sin to the best of one’s ability. As one grows in maturity, the sins should be lessened because the desire is to follow God’s ways and not one’s own and to repent for any sins and be determined to not keep doing them. Crimes of passion or emotional dis regulation may be more accurately placed at demonic or evil doorsteps than that of Our Creator. At least this is what I have discerned thus far in life. Regardless of one’s belief, it’s sad we have generally as humanity lost common sense and decency and most of all compassion for our fellow beings. I live in USA where we have freedom of religion and as a believer I know that God gives us free will, so I respect that. I do however see so many people do not understand that Our Father loves us and He wants our love and respect. So much is really twisted
This is what happens to people feeling hopelessness. Put your hopes and trust on the Lord Jesus Christ

What is the purpose of mentioning this is from an “upscale” neighborhood?
Because poverty/squalor is often the cause of breakups.
It makes it more scandalous.
Maybe to help people understand that worshipping money is not helpful.
Because they are under the illusion that because you have a big house and a "nice" neighborhood that you couldn't possibly commit any crimes.

She was probably sleeping with half of the neighborhood. He woke up. Saw it on her phone and decided to take things into his own hands. He didn't just wake up and decide to take him and his wife out. I guarantee she sucked the life out of him for years

Don’t know enough to be making a judgement at this point.
Everybody's so fast to blame him. But what happened to get it to this point? Everybody's trying to label him as an abuser. But only one person has been to jail and it was her for a domestic violence. So there's that... Her own son even said that she was the one that yelled and screamed and cursed and threw things all over the house and broke things. But I know it was alllll him. She was angelic.

Unfortunately, this is becoming way too common. This is heartbreaking 💔. We don't know what is going on inside someone's mind or home. This is why when I am out in public like the grocery store, I always try to smile and say, "How are you?". Just giving a simple hello, a smile, how are you, how are you today, or something like that could change someone else's day or mindset at that moment. Just all of us being little nicer and respectful we could make our world a lot better and more pleasant to live in. Sending prayers and love to this family 🙏 ❤. This is a devastating time for them all. I know how something like this can be so tragic and start so many more issues within the family. I know someone that this same kind of thing happened in his family with his grandfather and grandmother. It was so heartbreaking and devastating for their family 💔.
So glad that I live in a downscale neighborhood.

It is the risk of the game you play in hooking up for money and then try to take a 50% cut three years into the scheme. Some guys decide how that game is going to end. Happens every day in Babylon.

It’s possible, but a foolish response by him. He should gather evidence of infidelity and hand it over to a good divorce attorney.

At an advanced age it's hard to get divorced and lose half of everything you have made. And also lose the person you love, if you still love them. So sad
Hey suffered from depression for many, many years. I put a toll on their marriage it is said amongst closest friends that she was talking about leaving him. If you have survived the abuse, the most deadly time is when you try to leave it's also not that simple. I was married to an abuser on last year the police were called and I had bruises on my arms and I was in a complete mess. I went to a domestic violence shelter and while I was there my husband threw everything I owned into the trash. After a month of being in the shelter I had to leave because you're only allowed 30 days and I had nowhere to go. I took the police back to the home to get my belongings and discovered that in fact everything I owned was gone. The only clothes I had was what I had placed into a pillowcase when I went to the shelter. That was just over a year ago and I'm still homeless. I've been unable to find a place that I can afford. I wished I had stayed with him. The hardship of being homeless without food or being able to take care of the simple things has Spencer difficult
@@mm7365 I'm so sorry. Things will change.
I know this man. He was a teacher at the Missionary Training Center 30 years ago. He was the kindest, smartest guy ever. I do not believe this man was an abuser. I think he was depressed and had no way out in his mind.
So terrible but do not say now you wished you had stayed with your abuser, at least you still have life and where you have life, there is hope as you my have been a statistic by now like this case, so never give up or go back, move on and try to get a job, there is something out there waiting for you to do to make it in life! Keep having faith and pray that a door will be opened!

I bet she wanted a divorce for whatever reason and he was not having it
It is very sad and no money does not make you happy praying for the family members
Does being poor make people happy? Rarely
I suspect he was a family annihilator if the daughter was home she would be dead too. Husband probably was in financial ruin and couldn't keep up or love with the lie any longer
more likely she was cheating on him and wanted a divorce. threatened to take the children away from him. The one thing that will push a father to the brink is too threaten him by taking away his children.
@ScottPittman-jc7ph I don't think they had any minor children
How can you be that distraught with life after you just won yard of the month?
I conclude and suggest to you all, this is the type of video we don't need since it offers no real information.
Reporters believed the family would like to expose their raw ripped souls to comment to a community of strangers but oddly, the family wasn't feeling up to it. So glad reporters tried though, hate to not give the grieving family the opportunity to lay bare those gaping wounds that they so often want to share. How thoughtful.
It's ashame some folks think God can't help them and therefore instead of praying for God's help they take their lives by suicide . I'm so sorry for their children.
Beautiful woman. My heart aches for her grieving loved ones, most especially her child/children.
Gross. Shouldn't have used that picture of them together. Should have shown them separately. RIP TO THE LADY!
