A man killed his two young children Saturday by throwing them off the 15th floor of a landmark South Beach hotel and then jumped to his own death, police said. The children were 4 and 8 years old and the family was on vacation from Alton, Ill., said police spokesman Bobby Hernandez. The mother of the children told police she and her husband had been having marital problems for the past six months, Hernandez said. Police did not immediately release the identities of the family members. The woman heard one of her children screaming from an adjacent room in the Loews Hotel, and when she walked into the room she saw her husband going off the balcony, Hernandez said. She looked over the railing and saw her husband and her two children lying on a mezzanine roof that is about two floors above the ground. Hernandez said that despite the marital problems, the family had been celebrating the couple's 10th wedding anniversary. "It's a terrible tragedy. It's unfortunate that this gentleman was so selfish and in an effort to get back at his wife he took the two most loved people in the world away from her," Hernandez said. Hernandez said the woman did not know why her husband killed the children and himself. "There was no indication that he would be capable of doing something as horrible as this," Hernandez said. People in neighboring rooms said they did not hear any noises, Hernandez said. A Loews Hotel spokeswoman in Miami would not comment

If you dont care then the reason of you even replying to this thread is.....

I think that guys an *******...maybe there was no noise cause the kids were sleeping.
 
Gives you a lump in the throat, doesn't it?
 
It looks like Siva's just doing his best House impression.

Here's my best Jack Bauer impression:

Gregory House will kick Jack's ass.
 
Jack Bauer would slit Greg's throat without hesitation
 
Not before Jack Bauer broke all of Greg's fingers
 
i find the title of this thread to be completely understated...they didn't just fall...the f@cking father THREW his children from a balcony...

sicking...to Siva's point, nothing new...but still sickening.
 
Geez that is just so tragic, you never can tell.

I worked with a guy who was so cool. A few months later he was on the cover of the Washington Post for killing his 2 young children. Seperated from his wife and all. I guess maybe there should be some sort of intervention when couples are having martial strife to prevent such heartache.
 
I am tempted to make a House vs Jack thread. :(
 
It's strange how people just have some sort of switch that completely changes them into a monster. It sounds like he might have internalized the entire thing and just sat stewing on his marital problems until one of the kids set him off.

That was way out of line! You should be banned for that comment!


Anyways, this is terrible stuff! Anyone who doesn't care about this does not know what its like to have a disfunctional family, and they have a really easy life which everything is given to them...like Lord Siva.
 
thats so stupid...what ****.
