Massacre in King County, Wa
Seattle Times ^

Posted on 12/26/2007 5:24:13 PM PST by djf

Two people have been arrested related to a six person massacre in Carnation, King County Washington.

The two are described as being "in their late twenties or early thirties".

The victims were members of a single household, all members of the same family. A couple in their fifties, a couple in their thirties, and a six year old girl, a three year old boy.

All died of gunshot wounds.

They were discovered this morning when a coworker went to check on the eldest female, a worker for the post office, who was normally very dependable. Her husband was an engineer at Boeing.

I saw this on Drudge. At first it looks like 6 homicides. We will have to wait and see how this plays out. Not a good thing to happen and during the holidays no less. Just sad.

Looks like the couple arrested was known to the victims.

Thanks. I was going through the KING5 stuff and it wasn’t as complete as what they’re reporting on the tube itself.

Without even knowing all the circumstances, I say fry them.
There is NO excuse for gunning down children like that.
Period.

I was shocked to hear about this. I used to live in Carnation. Couldn’t quite tell exactly where this happened, but wondered if it was off Tolt Rd. maybe.

And since their saying a postal worker was a victim, I’m wondering if that’s someone from the Carnation post office. Use to pick up my mail every day there.

Ugh. But that’s usually the case in such, I gather. What a horrible thing.

I’ve heard the woman killed was a rural delivery person and worked out of the Carnation post office.

My son’s best friend was one of the two survivors if the Capitol Hill shootings. I cannot understand what gets into the minds of people who do this kind of thing. And why murder little kids?

From one of the links:

“The suspects were arrested after they apparently showed up at the crime scene while police were there...”

Pathological, to say the least. I’m suspecting teen boys and a random thrill killing, just due to the way things are these days.

I could be wrong, but either way six people, including two little kids, are dead.

Prayers up.

My initial theory would be that the 6 year old would have known one or more of the killers. Other than that, pure meaness.

I think most of those at Carnation Post office have changed since I lived there, but I don’t know. That’s an impact on the whole community though.

Wasn't one of the arrestees a 29 y.o. woman, or was I reading the story too quickly?
