Why do you keep acting like he may not have done it? He did it. He was in the house sending text messages from his & her phones to co-workers AFTER she was dead. The only questions left are why he did and what caused him to snap.

And as for innocent until proven guilty... That really only works for the living. He's dead so he'll never stand trial. All we have to go on are the facts & what the cops say about it & both, the facts & the cops, are saying he did it.

Suicide is a cowardly act. Period. It doesn't matter what circumstances lead to it, in my eyes, it's still a coward's way out of dealing with the consequences of one's actions.

Firstly, I didnt mention the word rage once.

Secondly, regardless if the man is dead or not - he either killed his family or he didnt. Just because he is now dead, doesnt mean he can be blamed for something he didnt necessarily do. It appears he did do it, but as none of us really *know* anything at the moment - only snippets of news on tv and in the papers, how can we make defined judgements?

Thirdly, it is YOUR opinion that suicide is a cowardly act. It is also your prerogative to believe he committed suicide because of the purported crime - but how do you KNOW that? You cant - it is an assumption.

Lastly, you have YOUR opinions (quote, "in my eyes" unquote), I have MINE - we should respect both whether we agree or not.
