Mental Health and Suicide

Rhinox

talked to the police yesterday.
they say this wasn't an accident. She was murdered. She was hit by their car and when she tried to get away they got out and beat her to death.
There's going to be a press release within the next few days and they say they have a couple of suspects already.

I really don't know how to feel right now. I know my wife is just lost with this revelation. Like, on the one hand, we knew she wasn't stupid. Getting hit by a car, in an accident, that just wasn't her. But knowing that this was a targeted act of violence just changes everything. It's a very different kind of hurt.

*clarification. The detective I talked to when we first arrived was a family friend not attached to the case. He knew what we knew at the time, which wasn't much. The detective we spoke to yesterday was one of the heads of the West Palm Major Crimes division. This is a much bigger deal than we'd been told before.

Geeze! I don't know what's worse: thinking it's an accident and that the police can't do anything or knowing she was deliberately targeted but at least the police are taking it seriously. I'm so sorry your family's going through this.

Well, I know that what I'm going through is nothing compared to what Rhinox is having to deal with, but I'm still getting harassed by neighborhood kids. I'm at the point where I've decided that a security system is a good idea.

I just wish I didn't have to do this. What happened to good parenting?
