Father drowned his children


I will never understand how an adult could kill a child, let alone how a parent kill their own child. In this case there was a father in Baltimore, Maryland who had his three children visiting with him (2, 4, & 6 years old). He drowned them one by one in the bathtub in his hotel room some time on Saturday. On Sunday he called the front desk to tell them what he had done and that he had intended on committing suicide. Their mother was expecting them to be back at home on Saturday around 8 pm. I can only imagine how she felt after hearing what their father had done to them. I hope that she doesn't blame herself for letting them go. Let's pray for both parents, along with the rest of the family and everyone else who my have any connection to the family. Senseless acts are rarely understood.....but then again, I guess they aren't for us to understand.

God bless
