Perhaps I should try to be understanding. Or forgiving. Perhaps I should say a prayer for him, hope that whatever inner torment drove him to it has been gently washed away from him with love and peace that surpasseth understanding.
But y’know what? As much as I philosphically believe in universal salvation, I hope this guy is writhing in unbearable torment for what feels like an eternity. Because he frickin’ deserves it.
A father suspected of drowning his 2-year-old daughter and attempting to drown his 4-year-old son drove his vehicle into a tractor-trailer on a Florida interstate Monday, killing himself and severely injuring his two other children, Florida police said.
The father, Bryan Christopher Randall, left behind a hand-written suicide note in the front seat of his sport utility vehicle.
“Dearest family and friends, ‘Why?’ must be the question on your minds, the following are the reasons, I made too many mistakes, I would not allow those beautiful children to grow up in the manner in which you had raised them, I didn’t get the latest job…,” Lake Mary Police Chief Richard Beary read from the letter at a news conference.
Beary said the note also instructed authorities who should be notified in the case of the father’s death, and indicated that he wanted his and the children’s remains cremated and the ashes mixed together.
It’s a good thing he’s dead, because otherwise I’d pay good money to kill him myself.
