I know people are going to send me hate mail over this which is why America is going to Hell in a hand basket but the shooter needs to be hung once proven guilty. Why not record the guilty person live and let the community see him or her die for this. This is how it was in the 1800 and early 1900s.

it was because that yurko guy(below) thought another guy was going out with his wife. and he missed and hit another person then turned the gun on himself.

He used a modified magnum. It was capable of firing .410's.

It was. My mum's fiance's son is dating one of Tom's daughters and she said it was over his (Tom) wife.

The shooter was Tom Yurko, one of my heros when I was growing up. He was a

2X state wrestling champ. Makes me very sad....
