Just heard it's being considered murder/suicide. How heartbreaking...

Of course, I have no idea and there can be many reasons but the first thought upon reading this is likely murder-suicide that crossed my mind was the kid(s) were autistic.

At this time of the year, several questions cross my mind at once. For all I know, it could be that she was too embarrassed or depressed or something about finances or something.
