An enraged ex-husband fatally shot his former wife and her new beau inside their million-dollar Long Island home Wednesday night after a bitter divorce battle, officials said.

Daniel Coppola, 50, allegedly blasted the couple — Kelly Coppola, 50, and Kenneth Pohlman, 53 — in their St. James home around 11:45 p.m. while he warned his daughter to sit in his car outside 21 Brasswood Road, according to police.

“The daughter was in the house and he reached out to her and told her to get out of the house,” Detective Lt. Kevin Breyer told reporters.

Daniel Coppola then fled the gruesome scene while the suspicious teen — whom he shared with his ex-wife — grew worried about her mom.

A positive look at this. That would be good.

He sounds like a maniac which explains why the wife needed the divorce and the daughter didn't want to live with with homicidal Dad. The ex wife was living at her boyfriend's house so how can she defile her marriage bed? Now the victim's three children are orphans and the murderer's daughter basically is with Dad in the slammer.

He could have walked away or shot himself first and the world would be a better place.

Is she his ex-wife or his estranged wife?

People today think walking out the door makes your marriage dissolved. Husbands and wives are not semi-permanent boyfriends and girlfriends.

Moving in with your new boyfriend doesn’t make you divorced. When you are screwing another man’s wife, you are putting your life at risk.

I’ve always been surprised that this doesn’t happen more often.

The article describes the woman as a man’s estranged wife, and in another sentence as his ex-wife.

I made my comment because the confusion in the article is fairly common.

Don’t cheat on your partner, maybe. If you want to end it, just be a grownup and file for divorce. The court would have been heavily, heavily unfairly biased in her favor.

Dating for 2 years, right after Jodie’s wife dies. The divorce finalized between 1-2 years.

The math isn’t working. No wonder he was homicidal. Who the heck picks up a married women 1 mile from your house after your wife dies?

The boyfriend's wife died 17 years ago. The murderer was homicidal because he's an animal as exhibited by the fact that he killed his ex-wife while his 15 year old daughter waited outside the house. Hopefully he'll kill himself and spare his daughter and the family of the boyfriend the torture of a murder trial.

Sorry about that. I don’t know how I saw 2 years at the same time of a break up. He’s not an animal, just a wounded sinner with no wisdom.

LOL. I'm sure you would call your average gangbanger hoodlum an animal but not this loser. He was also planning to kill the divorce lawyers. BTW he didn't seem to have be taken to the cleaners because he recently sold one house for 1.2 million and purchased another for $800k.

He's a monster and currently on suicide watch. Hopefully he'll succeed and his 15 year old daughter can inherit the estate and get on with her life with the help of other family members.

My guess is his “child support” was paying for the extravagance living of his ex. Giving 1/3 of take holm to “care” for a child is ludicrous.

How are you so sure? You don’t know me.

King David was an adulterer and a murderer.

Saul (the apostle Paul) was the one person in Israel who should have recognized the Messiah, but he spent his efforts murdering Christians.

We are all susceptible to act like sinners if we do not respond to truth.
