True, good point!

Also, they are stating now that he killed Dempsey in the Huntsville business first by blunt force trauma. He killed the wife last, supposedly killing everyone who could possibly stop him first.

The other 5 victims were stabbed.

I wonder how he killed all these people (stabbing them) and no one had time to escape and get help. I wonder if Tracie was his main target, why didn't he start with her?

I just went to view the pics of the victims, and realized I went to school with the brother........it's a very sad story

Prayers for the family....

This is so awful. My children have had control of my tv all summer and I haven't really even watched any news. I just found out about this and it was just a few blocks from my boyfriend's home. God Bless the families.

I heard on the news this morning that he had bought a stun gun Friday which points to premeditation. I guess he stunned them before killing them. I wondered how he killed two grown men in the same house without them being able to take him. I will have to look for a link.

HUNTSVILLE, Ala. (AP) — A man who killed his estranged wife and four other people in Tennessee in 2009 admitted Friday to killing a sixth person in north Alabama at the start of the rampage.

Jacob Shaffer, 33, pleaded guilty to murdering 50-year-old Sidney Wade Dempsey, who was beaten to death at a marble company in Huntsville..........

"He admitted he killed Sidney Dempsey to see if he had the mettle to go kill his wife and the others," said Jay Town, a Madison County prosecutor. "It was a test. He was just seeing if he could do it."...............

He admitted to the Tennessee killings in 2011 and already is serving life there.
