Re “Story behind slaughter of family starts emerging,” Jan. 28
The Ervin Lupoe tragedy, in which he allegedly killed his wife, five young children and himself after he and his wife were fired from their medical technician jobs at Kaiser Permanente, shows how desperate people can get when faced with dire economic consequences.
With our deeply worsening economy, it is surprising we aren’t seeing more incidents like this one.
