The 54-year-old man had fatally shot his son's bedridden mother, girlfriend and friend, Lt. John Corina told the Los Angeles Times. The motive behind the initial shooting was being investigated.

The man's 33-year-old son, identified by the Times as Christopher Morey, then wrestled his father to the ground, took the gun, and shot him once, killing him, according to the Sheriff's Department.

The son called police after the incident, and was arrested for allegedly killing his father. He was held in lieu of $1,000,000 bail.

... Corina told the newspaper. "We're going to book him for what he did - he killed another human being. The district attorney will decide if it was justified."

If the story is true in the particulars, totally justified. Piece of garbage to put his son in that position.

Don’t know if I believe the son’s story or not. The police apparently don’t.

Maybe son did it all? Story didn’t stack up?

The obvious alternative is that the son killed all four, albeit after a struggle with the father. Wonder which is true, as there are no surviving witnesses.

Shouldn’t he be placed on Administrative Leave while it is investigated?

Charging him with murder seems agressive.

Paid leave.

Or desk duty.

Well, that’s the son’s story, at least.

So the 33 year old son had a 48 year old girlfriend and a 27 year old male friend?

What are the odds we will ever see the followup and end to this story?

“Two men, ages 54 and 27; and two women, 48 and 54; were all found suffering from gunshot wounds and were pronounced dead at the scene.”

Suffering from gunshot wounds after death .... that’s painful, damn painful!

If the Father did what they say, he wasn’t a human being, case dismissed.

GSR tests would easily determine if the father ever fired the gun or if the son shot them all. Test takes about 5 seconds.

Something not adding up here.

Place a civilian on administrative leave? You must have read a different version of the story. And you’re charging the police with aggression. Whew!

I am curious as to just where Rowland Heights might be. Checking around on the site I see where a story cites Norwalk. Is that Connecticut?

So Calif., east of L.A. So is Norwalk. I wouldn't live in either city.

My sarcasm was implied, so I felt no need for the /s
