Was there known financial, mental health or other issues with his tenure, or with him?
Sad.

Confirmed. Police chief just had presser.

Both teens were at home at the time. Son called 911.
Poor kids.

I understand your rule, but if he killed his wife before killing himself, that is pretty disgusting.


I think everyone realizes that and it doesn't really need to be spelled out. But if you think that there are folks who need to be told that it is wrong to kill your wife, wait two days.

It’s all over my Twitter feed and that’s what people are saying. The news hasn’t confirmed who died in the murder suicide. It’s a real tragedy.

There was a murder/suicide over night at a residence owned by Justin Fairfax.
