Damn.

Working tonight. Several of the nurses know the family. Father shot and killed his MIL, wife, 5 children (oldest was a senior), then himself.

Holy crap!

Tragedy in Enoch, UT today. 8 dead, including 5 minors found in the home. Based on what the police are saying, probably murder - suicide

There's a full 20 minute interview. I pulled out the salient parts in the "Please don't be a Mormon, don't be a Mormon. Dammit, he's a Mormon" thread.

I sure hope it is not his father. If it is his father, it would explain a lot.

also kind of dispels the "trans" theory going around. We'll doesn't categorically exclude it, but give no indication to its veracity.

[Jeff Lebowski]

Good grief what a horrible human being.

[Maximus]

of course it is "we are mormon, we dont do gay"

Is that really him?

Crazy. I hadn't read much about it, but that's what's going on? I assumed there must have been a history. Stinking lawyers.

The claim came in a a footnote in a number of motions filed by defense counsel. The footnote claims that the subject uses they/them and prefers to be referred to as Mx. Aldritch. The victims of the shooting, while happy to honor preferred pronouns, have registered skepticism at the sudden unsupported claim, and would much rather the subject be referred to as the Late Anderson Aldritch.

With respect- don't buy too much into self-serving statements designed to counter hate crime charges.

Since this is the MS thread, and not just the CO mass shooting(s) threas:

November 22, 2022 - 6 people were killed and 4 other wounded in a shooting at a Wal-Mart in Chesapeake, Virginia.

And now I'm reading Aldrich from the CO shooting is non binary--uses they/them pronouns.
