I have so much respect for this Sheriff. RIP to the family 🙏💙

[@vickidolph1581]

Lord, please let this man survive so justice can’t be served! This is sickening and so heartbreaking!

Amen in Jesus Name...He will rot in Hell as well may he rot in Jail too

[@tammiedixon6788]

O my God, why didn't those men fight back??? They should have fought till the death

[@laylowosman6299]

not everyone has a surviving instinct I ask the same question

[@mirandarobinson6005]

You have no idea if they did or not. We only know the result.

[@SuperPapadzul]

@ Tammie Dixon - - - The perp possibly took the wife and child hostage, then made the two men zip tie each other. Probably, terrorized and then promised the woman: "no harm, if you do as I say". So, instead of calling for help she waited. So sad!🖖

[@zariballard]

Tammie Dixon I know, it's hard to understand that. Two men against one and they appeared in the video to be so submissive. The bad guy didn't even have to raise the gun up on the way out. BEFORE THE ZIP TIES, the two guys could have risked it and bum rushed him or one could have distracted him for a split second and the other overtake him. SOMETHING. ANYTHING. He couldn't have killed all three of them at once. It's all so awful:(

Just awful, and the poor little angel!

[@zariballard]

Has anyone explained the first video clip where one of the victims is kind of sprinting (not in a desperate manner) ahead of the killer up the ramp to the door. The killer follows behind with a white garbage bag that he puts down and pulls out the gun before going inside. It gives the feeling that the two were having a conversation in the parking lot and the victim said, "Hang on, I'll go get you that" or something. We know he was a former employee so did he just suddenly appear in the parking lot and ask for something? Did he walk there and what was in the white trash bag? Did they find HIS vehicle around the area?

[@keithameerali9474]

It seems he got a text from someone in the office and sprinted there. Likely those in the office were already under the gun as the kidnapper may have had help from a second person. How could he have left with the two men and the lady did not call police.?

[@d.r.3362]

@@keithameerali9474I'm pretty sure the wife was tied up until he came back and then he untied her so she could carry the baby.

[@mayrazambrana198]

They know him

[@joycemyrick7053]

He is seen walking on the road behind the building just before he enters the business after which he makes contact with one of the victims. So I believe he was on foot, he left with the family in a truck that belongs to the family. Its absolutely heartbreaking what he did to this family. I also understand the perpetrators brother was also involved in some way.

Why victims wife didn’t call police right away after her husband was kidnapped??

[@Rain-yh9ws]

I thought same thing!! Why did she not do something during the time they were gone. I just don't understand.

[@alzumiico4704]

He probably had her tided up or restrained

[@saywhatyouwant888]

She was duct taped ..the news read

[@zariballard]

You're not paying attention. He put the two guys in the truck and then when right back in to get her and the baby. 6 minutes. Still, that may have been time to dial 911.

[@laceyc412]

the police could've possibly saved the baby if they had a helicopter search for them ... They had the area because of the phones being there ...

[@Rain-yh9ws]

OMG i hadn't thought of that!! But your right. How sad!

[@dcc-randomstorieswithmel7424]

Not necessarily, you don't know if he killed them immediately

[@RonBurgundy209]

They did do an aerial search. The sheriff mentioned it in his first public press release.

Does no one pay attention??? It wasn't a home. It was an office for a trucking company. And they knew him. He was a previous employee.

[@jesus_is_life_love2932]

I too thought same. maybe he may have threatened to kill them. The road was nearby she could have taken risk. The family seems way tooo soft to think such things

[@lexiboo1935]

how do you get closer when yr family is killed that makes no sense to me unless yr saying the closer is in finding there bodies, what I don't till this day understand is why the girl didnt get help he left her and came back for her unless he tied her up and she couldn't get loose or use her phone im all kinds of sad about this and the media and police are holding out on some of the details

[@alis4650gls]

She was probably tied up and maybe he threatened her because the baby was there

[@jollyradtv9941]

They are still hoping for a "solid" case after clear video of kidnapping and dead bodies! Who actually wrote law books, sometimes that is more chilling.

[@reeanncraig5263]

I agree sometimes I think to myself who ever wrote the law in most countries seemed as if they eventually got fed up and tired and decided on the most ridiculous things due to it been done quicker! People like governments and people who write the law are different kinds of people from decades ago! They don’t know how to punish someone who deserve it

[@ff11dream]

Horrible

[@79tazman]

It's so sad that happened but now I wonder why? There has to be others involved I think that guy was the one hired to take them out but there is a reason it happened.

the first reason is that Satan roams the earth to kill steal and destroy And all man thinks to do is saying the same stupid stuff that it’s senseless!!! And then besides this making claims about people and death that are not true!!! Unless we are born again as is commanded by God -thru Jesus Christ by work of Holy Spirit there is NO resting in peace for Jesus Christ IS the Prince of Peace the baby - yes! the age of accountability is our awareness of right and wrong and no one ever leaves this earth and goes to hell because God decides It’s because people reject the truth of Him- Jesus Christ Whether it’s self righteousness- religiosity- cultural religions and the cults- Catholic Church #1
