Default Family suicide in Anaheim

Anyone here, heard about this family on the news? Damn! It turns out that the man who killed his wife and tried to take the lives of his 2 sons were the owners of this one Auto shop in Buena Park (Trojan Auto Service) that I've gone to a couple of times to have my car serviced at...I was last there about a month ago to get my Transmission flushed and the oil on my differential changed and the man "Wayne" (who supervised the his guys to work on my car) who murdered his wife was definitely in good spirits at the time...It's crazy, sometimes when you hear about these tragedies on the news, sometimes you never know that these could be people that you know...

Jerry (xxknowonexx) If you're reading this, this shop was near your pad...If you go down Stanton Ave towards Anaheim, you'd pass by a shop that had a Filipino flag draped along side it's window...That was the place that the now deceased couple owned. I'll pass by later and drop some flowers and offer my condolences.

Gosh...this is terrible. I'm sorry but how selfish. Poor kids lost both parents and the three year old critically wounded? This just angers me! You just never know the nuts that are out there.

If you were going to lose your house, you can stay with family members until you get back on your feet.

Wow what a coward to take the easy way out. I wish he take his own life only instead of trying to murder his whole family.

I also happen to personally know that very same Sgt Tim Schmidt in the link above.

But yeah, while I was getting my car serviced there one morning, I had been playing video games with the 2 little boys...I remembered, playing Twisted Metal against them on the PSP, being the cool older kid that I am, I'd deliberately let them win against me...Those 2 little boys were the by far some of the sweetest and most well behaved kids considering their age...Their mom "Hermie" even offered me Donuts,scrambled eggs and Spam for breakfast while I was waiting for my car, She just had that typical loving, Filipino hospitality in her and I even had a long chat with her husband Wayne about Foxbody 5.0 Mustangs (Since he owned one, and I was a former owner of one), After my car was done later on that morning, I went on my usual way not knowing that it would be the last time I would ever see them as a family, Very unfortunate I tell you.
