Family annihilators

[ISaySteadyOn]

Does anyone know if there have ever been any formal studies about this? If yes, could you point me to them? Trust you lot a lot more than Google.

Can't help, but I notice with despair that there was yet another one on the news tonight.

There have, I am sure. Cooking so can’t find at the moment but posting to keep you bumped.

David Wilson at Birmingham City University did the first and possibly only in depth research on this. About 5 years ago i think.

Just looked it up on bbc website. Oh god. I really hope those boys were drugged unconscious first. Those poor boys and their poor mother.

It's dreadful. Surely, there ought to be a follow up study and it needs to be widely publicised.

There's a thread on chat or AIBU already saying about how he must have been mentally ill...just snapped...etc.

Though thankfully there are a lot of people now wading in saying no he's a killer

But it still seems like nothing was learned from the Clodagh Hawe’s murder, and of Liam, 14, Niall, 11, and Ryan, 6.

Understanding Cluster B disorders is the first step - there are varying degrees of it - these are the guys who kill/maim/try to destroy the woman and kids - a friend has one as an ex - has to experienced to understand how vindictive they are
