Multiple news accounts state that there is no cell phone reception in that area of the park.

"Dispatch recordings indicate the children came to the park’s visitor center and told staff their parents had been assaulted on a trail and one of the parents may have been stabbed. State troopers later found two bodies on a trail, according to radio traffic."

Jesus. So the kids got out of the car and went to find help? That’s horrifying. I hope the car was parked in the visitor center parking lot.

I wouldn't be surprised to learn he has a diagnosis of schizophrenia. Scary to think he's already worked in two school systems with young children.

Just go away, honestly, with your disgusting comments. These people are dead. Brutally murdered. And all you can say is one of them looked like SN.

BTW PP was right. They looked perfectly normal.

Why would you think that? Homicide is rare among those diagnosed with schizophrenia.

It's at least 3. Two in Oklahoma and one in Texas. He was a "teacher candidate" in Arkansas.

In an earlier post, there is a mention of his first job at a school and a mom who claimed he was "inappropriate" with girls in his 4th grade classroom. According to Fox News, the elementary school involved has sent out this to parents:

"In the spring of 2023, we communicated with the families of students in Mr. McGann's class that he was placed on administrative leave while the district investigated complaints of poor classroom management and poor professional judgment related to concerns about uneven treatment of students and displays of favoritism," said school officials in a letter sent to parents.

The letter continues to say, "Our investigation did not find any evidence of inappropriate behavior with a student, however we did find his classroom management and professional judgment to be below our district's expectations. Ultimately, Mr. McGann resigned from LISD in May of 2023."

And we can thank DOGE/Trump cuts to the Department of the Interior and National Park Service for that.

Good job, trumpers. You’ve gotten yet another two people killed with your budget cuts.

That’s not the horrifying part. If they hadn’t gotten out of the car to look for help, what do you think would have happened? The kids parents clearly did a good job of protecting them, both by getting them back to the car and safety, and at some point teaching them how to find help in an emergency by looking for a place where people are working.

There’s no cell reception in many rural areas and national parks, regardless of who is in office.

As much as I hate Trump, is there evidence connecting your conspiracy theory to any facts? I am not aware that the National Park Service maintains cell service in the parks, that seems to be up to cellphone carriers.

It seems like the kids were able to find NPS employees. Given how many posts are empty this is a good thing. DOGE could have led to the children’s death as well, but thankfully it didn’t.

Did the dad react to the suspect approaching his kids?

I hope idiots realize that if we had as many encounters with bears as we do with men, bear attacks would be much higher. You need to understand statistics a bit better.

No, not true. Bears aren't prowling the woods looking for human females to degrade, torture and kill. Bears would like very much to be left alone by human females, as much as humanly possible. How do I know this? Because a bear used to be on my porch or in my yard on a fairly regular basis when I lived in the woods of Maine - I would step outside, the bear would be a few feet away from me and perfectly able to KILL ME if it wanted to because I was not armed - but the bear would RUN AWAY AS FAST AS IT COULD BACK INTO THE WOODS.

People who actually spend time in the backwoods encounter bears fairly frequently. Bears, again, are not motivated to degrade, torture and kill human females OR males. The very rare occasion when bears kill humans always involve food motivation, protection of offspring, or a hurt bear that is not acting in accordance with typical bear behavior.

Look at the statistics on men killing other men and women and children. It is clearly very much within typical human male behavior to be driven to degrade, torture and kill other, weaker, humans - often for nothing other than some kind of twisted 'fun'.
