Sigh. I know people are going to pile on to him.
I make the assumption he didn’t try to kill them, he had a disconnect. They were probably quietly sleeping, he was late for work or something.
He will suffer with the knowledge he has done this the rest of his days.
I’ll get hammered for this as well but in the old days when mom had the kids IN THE FRONT SEAT this rarely happened.
I am reminded of the Star Trek TNG episode i think called the survivors. At the end having learned the truth of the situation concludes as follows...
“We’re not qualified to be your judges. We have no law to fit your crime.”
There are many who will cast a harsh judgement on this man. But there’s no harsher judgement than what he’s going to level on himself.
They already have, many accusing him of actual murder.
