Paxboy... when a murderer kills somebody, because he is insane, it is still his own fault. We are all responsible for our own deeds. Maybe this man was psychologically ill, he still left his wife and children behind.
And yes I also feel sorry for him, but much stronger I feel that he was a §%$& to leave his family behind like that.
My deep sympathy goes to the wife and especially the children, who are the real victims here.
