The cruelty is almost too much to imagine. Anthony Alvarez, 63, shot and killed his adult daughter, Jennifer Kimble, 37, in a Central California home with her three young children inside. Alvaraz also shot and wounding another daughter, Valerie Alvarez, 33, before apparently killing himself. Tulare County deputies found bodies after a call from Jennifer's 8-year-old daughter. Jennifer's two sons, ages 13 and 11, were found uninjured in the house.
Jennifer Kimble worked in the cafeteria of an elementary school in her neighborhood. Anthony Alvarez was a Vietnam veteran who received a purple heart. No information has been released explaining a possible motive.
I wonder why he did this?
ReplyDeleteThe reality is, families are full of all kinds of secrets and history. There are too many reasons to count why a family member may fly off the handle and act in cruel ways. We may never know the real reason...
ReplyDeleteOne must pitty the poor 8-year-old who heard the gun fire. She called the cops but she was not able to save her mom. The poor little girl must be scared and confused.
ReplyDeleteThank God she was spared as were her brothers.
Why...who knows. But I'm thinking it was something that has simmered for months....maybe even years.
ReplyDeleteThan someone spills milk at the dinner table and it escalates.
Too bad this lunatic did not direct his rage toward spammers!
ReplyDeleteSpammers will be deleted and charged.
ReplyDeleteWait til they get the bill!
He was NOT a lunatic. He was a troubled war hero not unlike many who are suffering in this country from post traumatic stress disorder.

ReplyDelete...is this true?
What happened to the cries of "Support our troupes" when Bush and Chenny were so gun-ho about the wars?
Funny how once Chenny's corp Haliburton secured the rights to 1/3rd of Iraq's oil fields, Obama gets on TV and says, "WAR in Iraq is over"
Actually all this happened in the same week but you won't hear about it from our press...have to search the net for this information.
