According to Maury County District Attorney Brent Cooper, it appears that the victims were four children and their mother. The children, three girls and one boy, ranged in age from roughly 8 to 16 years old.

Investigators with the Maury County Sheriff's Department are working to figure out what happened.

Maury County Sheriff Bucky Rowland told News4 that a family member came home from work around 6 p.m. and found the victims at the home in the 1000 block of Carters Creek Pike.

According to investigators, a gun was used in the deadly attack.

Can you imagine coming home from work, at a normal time, to find this?

Tragic.

To me it requires a lot of anger to murder an entire family. I am betting that person knew exactly who did it.

If it was a murder-suicide, isn't Mom the a priori most likely?

The 16 year old would be a possibility.

That’s Mass Murder, as the one suicide was likely just an after thought.

There is evil in this country, and despite the politically correct dogma, we know that all cultures are not equal, as some are infested with violent thugs.

From what I am reading, they think the mother did it and an older child came home and found the scene.

This is not an uncommon occurrence in Japan, when men coming home from work have discovered that the wife has killed both herself and the kids. I’ve often made note of that elsewhere online when the discussion involved how the United States should emulate a country like Japan with it’s very strict gun control laws that are supposedly accompanied by much lower homicide rates.

According to the sheriff’s department, this is an isolated
incident and they are not looking for any suspects at this
time. Law enforcement is interviewing surviving family
members.

The children were reportedly home-schooled.

“And what culture was this family?”

A culture where a mass-murdering thug lurked.
