While I’m the type of person who is generally unaffected by random mayhem and death (at least, on a small scale), this story freaked me the hell out. I mean…Good GOD!!!
What really gets under my skin is the two names (Lisa & Jon) of the family killed. They match the principal characters of a novel I wrote many years ago, which I’ve been discussing at length with a recent friend. (The 3rd kid’s name hasn’t been released yet, but if it’s “David”, I’ll fucking shit my pants…)
