I've never heard of him but, FFS..... what must someone be going through to not only end their own life but also the lives of the kids.

I'm really sad now.

I saw this and immediately thought of CTE from to many hits and concussions. Horrible situation - can’t comprehend that situation.

😟

That’s assuming his wife wasn’t the perpetrator.

A few years ago a chap had his young kids in car and started a petrol lawnmover in back, and gassed them all,5 in all on the Horse shoe pass near llandegla,sadly it happens every so often a parent looses the plot and destroys their life and kids lives.

A friend killed herself and her kids over 20 years ago. Can't imagine being that desperate. But fire? Jeez

Don't care how desperate he was. I hope his last few seconds felt like an eternity of pain.

She ran from the car saying he’d poured petrol on her (of course this may not have been the truth) but on the surface it seems she wasn’t the perpetrator.

Nice. I always wondered who wrote the comments on Mailonline posts.

Grim, I too wondered if the cause was one too many bangs on the head.

So it seems he got out of the car, poured petrol all over it, lit it and then stabbed himself.

The detail about the loss of Rowan Baxter isn't helping. The Samaritans say don't perpetuate.

the loss of Rowan Baxter

I agree about not going into detail, but that's a really strange way of describing him killing four people.

Apparent long history of DV, too.

What a prince.
