I also find it interesting that he murdered his son, his sister and her husband, as well as other relatives besides his apostate daughter.
I believe it was his wife’s sister and husband, which would make it not so unusual.
The gunman had some prior dealings with police
Santa Claus killings: Financially strapped dad planned family massacre, Texas police say
A father dressed as Santa Claus arrived to his family’s Christmas party with two guns, executed his entire family and then killed himself — and planned the entire thing, police said Tuesday.
Police believe the Christmas Day massacre in Grapevine, which left seven people dead still surrounded by Christmas presents and wrapping paper, was premeditated, Grapevine Police Sgt. Robert Eberling said.
Eberling would not officially identify the shooter or the victims, family friends identified the gunman as Aziz “Bob” Yazdanpanah. Last ear, a bank foreclosed on Yazdanpanah’s house, and he separated from his wife in the spring.
Yazdanpanah’s wife and two children are believed to be among the dead.
The gunman had some prior dealings with at least two other police departments but not Grapevine Police, according to Eberling. He did not say what kind of dealings, or when or how many incidents there were.
Yes. They don’t usually kill their sons. In fact, I haven’t heard of it yet. A son is precious. A daughter is ... kind of like a rug. Pretty, and can be sold unless “ruined,” in which case, useless and to be disposed of.
They were all celebrating Christmas weren't they? Not only that he probably held them to be complicit in his Daughter dating a non muslim because they were too westernized.
