Glad he is in custody. Looking forward to hearing why.

Glad they finally apprehended him. I'm wondering if his car had a GPS device or did they find him by pinging his cell phone. Anyway My heart goes out to these children.

What a . What a monster. Pure Evil

These poor children.

 

[scmom]

One of his "reasons" is supposed to be financial difficulties. Wow, I can't see how murdering his wife will help in that area.

From the Newsday link.

"He's a good man who was taking care of six kids," Ferrante said. "All he's thinking about now is the kids." The family is scrambling to take the children in and to get them grief counseling. "It's trying, to say the least," Ferrante said.

He should've thought about the kids before he murdered their mother. :furious:
