Long-Term Verbal Abuse Suddenly Culminates in Physical Domestic Violence When Husband Kills Wife and Stepson and Finally Himself, with Their Three Youngsters in the Home | Janet Langjahr's Florida Divorce * Child Custody * Domestic Violence Law

Wife reportedly calls police on four different occasions this year due to Husband.

According to Wife, Husband variously prohibits Wife from taking the kids out of the home, changes the locks on the doors, harasses Wife and so on.

Wife files for divorce. Her papers allege verbal abuse, including a death threat, and disparagement in front of their children. Never actual physical violence.

But, close to a divorce settlement, Husband shoots and kills Wife and Stepson, before taking his own life.

The couple’s three young children are in the home at the time.
