Authorities have revealed the suicide notes penned by a mother who killed her children, her estranged husband’s girlfriend and herself in South Carolina last month.

The Pickens County Sheriff’s Office disclosed three letters written by Jessica Edens, who shot both of her children in the head before turning the gun on herself.

“I hope you rot one day for what you have done to me and my kids,” the woman wrote to her estranged husband, Ben Edens, with whom she was fighting for custody. “You can no longer hurt us. We are at peace. I hope you live with pain and shame and guilt for the rest of your life.”

The handwritten notes were released this week in response to a Freedom of Information request filed by The Greenville News.

"...for what you have done to me and my kids"

Couldn't be any worse than what she did.

I'm not really picking on the Carolina's.

C'mon, you can deal with a little reply like that without taking it personal, can't you? Just seems to be a lot of craziness coming from that region in the past several years. Especially South Carolina.

I get snide remarks all the time from people who hate California because of all of our libtard idiots here. I don't let it bother me too much that they lump us all in on that. I know they don't realize that there's millions of conservatives here in Cali.

I grew up in Pomona, a very rough area in SoCal. So if we wanted to talk about crazies, we could go on for days.

I wonder if she was on anti-depressants.

Sounds like she was being replaced with a new model and she decided to take away everything her ex wanted. It was revenge.

Hell has no fury like a woman scorned.

One of the arguments against letting women vote.

"What the hell is going on in the Carolina’s lately that’s making people so crazy?"

The immigration of all those yankees to fill those jobs?

He was right to leave her and demand custody.

From the article, girlfriend was found shot in her car, and ex and kids were found dead in ex’s car a few miles away.

Looks like kids were with girlfriend, ex shot girlfriend, took kids, then killed kids and self a few miles down the road.

““I hope you rot one day for what you have done to me and my kids,” the woman wrote”

Murder-Suicide...Her sad and pathetic last-ditch attempt to empower herself. It only goes to show how desperate some people are for “empowerment”, however oblivious they are to being utterly incapable of handling it responsibly.

You have to read the article to learn that her actions are even worse than what you are thinking. She had 2 ex-husbands. Her older child was with husband no.1.
