Maybe someone disgruntled over who was or wasn't in the will. That looks to be a fairly substantial estate.

Please delete if not allowed. The family put the farm up for sale, per their son, on Mar 25, 2017. This is the Zillow Listing. Idk if it sold or not, but based on the OP, I don't believe that it had.

Five people shot at Texas ranch | Daily Mail Online

A man shot dead his wife, baby daughter, and his wife's grandparents before turning the gun on himself in a horrific murder-suicide at a Texas ranch.

Five people were found dead from gunshot wounds in Blanchard on Monday morning.

Family friends have identified Randy J Horn, 54, as the shooter to DailyMail.com.

They also identified his victims as his wife Ashley Horn, their one-year-old daughter Ranley, and Ashley's grandparents Lynda and Gene Delaney.

How awful. Is his age of 54 correct?

 

[rsd1200]

Did he say there was a survivor?

I think he said the grandmother (Ashley's mom) (not great grandmother) is alive and heard shots around 5:30 AM.

That's quite a nice place for semi-rural East/Southeast Texas.

How depressing. Someone saw their meal ticket being cancelled and went nuts. That old man and woman probably worked 100 years between them to build the estate too.

Looks like a domestic dispute to me. My guess is that Ashley and baby were staying with her mom and grandparents, and Randy arrived at 5:30AM to shoot them. It's interesting that they named their daughter Ranley - more or less a combination of their first names. I wonder how the family felt about a 54 year old man with their 27 year old.

And yes, I agree that he probably saw her as a meal ticket.
