I’m still on the fence about this one. My first thought was that it was Dad, but now I’m starting to wonder…. If this WAS a murder/suicide, then it was brilliantly planned by CB to frame him.

On the other hand… there IS the suspicious death of his second wife.

Same, that's exactly where I am at. My biggest pause on M/S is the families account of CB having two GSW's. I mean it could happen but..

I think the key to this is getting in to CB's phone, which may be why the Secret Service is involved. That would help solidify the timeline, and perhaps offer insight into her mindset.

I'd take a good rumor at this point to help point the way.

Being the most obvious suspect hasn’t stopped a lot of spouse killers, so that doesn’t bother me.

And you’re right about the MFH thing. I can think of 5 cases off the top of my head where the kids were present during one of those, and in all of them they were unharmed.

I can’t think of one where they were injured, much less killed.

I’m extremely high on murder/suicide at this point, but if it isn’t, then there’s only one way to look.

Unless there was someone else out there who really really REALLY hated this doctor. (Like the whole family of Shawna Beallis)

Deputies found Beallis and her children in response to a welfare check requested after she failed to appear for an emergency court hearing in divorce proceedings between her and her husband, according to court records.
