How evil and selfish - 2 boys dead!


For those of you who have not been following this story from the beginning, today was a tragic end to the remainder of the Powell family.

In 2009 Susan Powell went missing leaving her 2 boys Charlie 5, at the time and Braden 3. Her husband Josh Powell became the person of interest. Susan's parents got custody of the boys last year. Josh Powell was allowed to have supervised visits with his sons. Today as the boys arrived with a case worker for their scheduled supervised visits to their father's home. Charlie who was 7 and Braden 5 ran into the house and Josh slammed the door behind them. The case worker heard explosions and the house went up in flames. Authorities are calling this a double murder suicide.

I don't know about you but to me this guy pretty much admitted he was responsible for whatever happened to his wife. The guilt and the stress was so unbearable that the only thing that made sense was killing himself and the boys!?!? Unbelievable!!! I can't imagine what was going through this guy's mind and how long this evil been growing within him?

Stories like this make me appreciate my own family a lot more and realize how sometimes the things we focus on in life are so petty!

Hugging my loved ones a little harder tonight and praying for the families that are affected by this tragedy!
