Thus is terrible....and sad! this man left 2 indicating that he was going to kill the children and the ones who knew about is did not do anything. "well that just shows you and tells you that this person who knew of his intensions didn't give a "CRAP". Because if he/she knew of this they would of did something. But now look what has happen to these poor children. These little angels are going to heaven and a far as their father is knows where he is going. My prayers are with the family. SYSTEM and PEOPLE we need to take these kind notes and/or threats more serious when we hear things like this. GOD BLESS YOU 3 ANGELS.
