Thanksgiving Day Shooting in Florida Still a Mystery

Police said 17 relatives were in the house when the shootings were reported around 10 p.m. Thursday in Jupiter, a small, well-off beach town about 90 miles north of Miami.
Jupiter Police Sgt. Scott Pascarella said officers were looking for Paul Michael Merhige, 35, of Miami. Paul Merhige is a cousin of the 6-year-old victim, Makayla Sitton.
The others killed were Merhige's twin sisters, Carla and Lisa Merhige, 33, and an aunt, Raymonde Joseph, 76, according to police.
Authorities said a fifth victim, Merhige's brother-in-law Patrick McKnight, was being treated at a hospital.

Police across South Florida and the U.S. Marshals Service were searching for Merhige. Pascarella said Merhige is believed to be driving a blue 2007 4-door Toyota Camry with Florida license plate W42 7JT.

Tragic....He's dead, he was suicidal and they will find him dead of a self inflicted gunshot wound

[TyneRoseMedia]

That is exactly what I have been thinking!! Either way I hope they find him soon. It's bad enough for the families of the victims to have to deal with the death of a loved one, but to not know where the killer is lurking makes it so much more tragic. We need this guy caught!!!

Please torture him to death. Stone him, skin him, and burn him to death.

I feel that true Forgiveness Is spelled a little differently, Like Fore Giveness. That is, I give all (people and world) space to have experiences, (negative or positive actions) before they are had or acted upon, or done. A paradoxical thing it is when our light shines greater with loss, Yet do we not also have loss when we snuff out our love for our brothers who kill? I feel Makayla's love might have been that strong to withstand the storm of pain arisen from his action. We are the Light/Love!

Too awful- just tragic...I know what Im about to say sounds terrible but ....just wish these suicidal individuals would take only their lives...I do not understand the reasoning behind shooting everyone else...
