Six people found shot dead; two suspects arrested near Seattle

Six people, likely three generations of a family, were found dead yesterday at a rural property east of Seattle, and police arrested two people who knew the victims in the slayings, authorities said.

Perfect justification for the death penalty. Putting to death a man and woman who murdered six INNOCENT people who harmed no one is hardly the same thing. Two children - children - were murdered. They had harmed no one. Two murderers took those innocent lives. To equate the two and claim that to execute the murderers makes our society no different than the murderers themselves is pathological. They are not the same and any rational person knows this. Those who have taken a life, who have violated the sanctity of life, have forfeited the sanctity afforded their own. If your bizarre relativism really convinces you that you believe the two killers’ lives have value after they murdered two children and four adults, you're a dangerous fool.

This absolutely terrible. The story will come out as to why this happened but one can only imagine for now.

What is wrong with people today! Whoever did this should be shot as well.

Some one needs to tell Bush before we start trying to stop the Terrorists outside of our country we need to stop the ones inside first.

Waiting in deathrow is taking too long for people like this,we need to vote for a law that says as soon as they know for sure that their're guilty.They must kiss the electric chair good bye. No more than fourty eighthours May the victime souls be in peace.

It seems anything that happens bad in the United States someone always points the finger at President Bush and this time it is someone from France, a country with a lot of their own problems. In no way can this be the Presidents fault. Wake up people and realize our country has become so "politically correct" that we don't dare say or do anything that might infringe on someones rights and we coddle people instead of punishing them. We have become a society of wimps.

I know that People like to use this forum to blindly badmouth Baltimore, but this is proof that sick stuff happens everywhere. Even is upper class white Seattle! I’m also not a fan of those who blindly bad mouth the President, but has anyone else noticed that the quality of life across the country has gone to pot in the past ten years? Frankly I can’t think of a single thing that is better now than it was in November 2000.

Hey Everyone!
Get off of the Bashing and Blaming Bush bandwagon.
You all watch too much CNN. This cirumstance is not different than other similar cirumstances in our history.
If you don't believe me, do some real research. I can also
make this easy for you. Read Truman Copote's "In Cold
Blood" (1959?)

Those murders stole the rights and lives of 6 innocent people. They deserve nothing better than to be executed by gunfire.

i am so sorry that my cousin did this horrible crime. he was abused mentally as a kid. this no excuse . he was one of my best friends as a child and i can't believe he did this with her. i pray for the family to heal from this and i pray for my cousin that god has mercy on his soul and ask for the people that read this to pray for them all. this is the only way to heal.

this is just sick the man that helped her needs to be executed more than she does...he shot two little kids and their mother as she begged him not to...why did he say sorry and why did he say he had to...those are the questions i would like to have answered...
