Maybe you’re thinking of the lesbian couple:

Monday, March 26, 2018, Jennifer and Sarah Hart, and six of their children died when an SUV driven by Jennifer Hart drove over a 100-foot (30 m) cliff on Highway 1, in Mendocino County, California, near Westport.

Well done, Marine.

Semper Fidelis, Semper Paratus.

Dam police. Who needs them? Two little girls if you needed a for instance.

Shhh. Don’t want the national media to lead with this story.

Don’t worry. They won’t.

Of course it’s always good luck when a [former] Marine just happens to be right on hand, who has with him, and really knows how to use, a 100 foot dog leash. Talk about God watching out for people.

Yes, your response is exactly correct!

I can’t imagine what horror drove the father to do this but at the end, he tried to save his children. The officer is a true hero.

The father must be punished, of course, but no one does such an awful thing without an equally awful reason. He is mentally ill and needs our prayers as much as our condemnation.

He will spend every day of his life hating himself. The officer should spend every day of his life thanking God for the gifts that allowed him to rescue the girls.

“OK, that’s a German Shepherd leash, not a Chihuahua leash”

And it was a 100-foot leash. That explains to me how it could be used for rapelling down that cliff.

I don’t see how anyone survived that airborne crash into the rocks below.

Yep. Those 100 foot dog leashes are made of steel cable.

What a horrible life time mental burden for the two girls; knowing their father tried to kill them while taking his own life.

I think you are conflating Susan Smith, who had two or three children iirc, with that post-partum psychosis woman in Texas around the same time who drowned her five children in the bathtub. Sorry; too busy to look them up today.

Read the thread. Lots of other people beat you to the correction.
You are all correct.

Great link!

Thanks for posting the info that they are all expected to recover (physically, at least)
