This is a very perplexing and shocking case. I was rather confused earlier on in this thread by the pictures of text messages from the biological father's new wife or partner. I wasn't sure what exactly was the source of them. But it may be possible that the step wife or someone else was providing an alibi for him and that would explain the messages saying 'she should never have sent the children back there' - she might knowingly or unknowingly have been trying to protect him from suspicion.
If the speculation about previous court hearings were correct that he had been challenging whether he was the father of the children - he may have come to believe that and resented the child support he was paying. But you have to either be in a rage or have completely disassociated yourself from any human connection with those poor children to do such a terrible thing. Or it could have been to inflict revenge on his ex wife. Though IMO that usually happens at the time of a break up not when they are settled into new relationships. Or such a heinous crime could have been motivated by the desire to prevent the children telling about other actions or abuse inflicted upon them.
Whatever is the case it is too brutal and cruel to imagine why anyone would end those innocent lives so young. All speculation on my part. I've not posted in a while so MODs please forgive me if I have transgressed any of the rules.
