That's southern California to folks who don't live in this area. I just heard about
this latest one. It's unclear, but police think the husband in this case killed his family . But it's possible his wife, who had also lost her job from Kaiser Permenente, did the deed before he got home from wherever he was. They had five children all under the age of 8-two sets of twins. The bottom of the article lists the other family murder/suicides that have happened.
It's horrible, and it takes me back to the original (in quotes, there) case of
John List and others. Check out the Crime Library. There are a fair number of these ultra controlling, strange men (and I assume women, but who suspects women when they murder their families, eh?).
Anyhow, these people: there were PLENTY of places to turn. And Kaiser? So not talking about Kaiser at the moment.
