For this incredibly long research project, I have sometimes needed to expand particular descriptors: what sort of location (work, school, public place, residence, other private location)? Cause has been a surprisingly straightforward one. There are cases for which no single cause really fits. This is one where first reports suggests divorce. The next report got a bit weird: not really at work, but work-related as well as confused relationships.
Hollywood, Fla. (1968)
08/07/1968: “Estranged husband of one of the daughters,” 31,
forced entry into Phil Wein stein’s home, shooting him, his wife and two of the
three daughters to death before suicide.
(The third child was found by police hiding under the bed, unharmed.) Police
later explained that the murderer had worked for the father’s law firm. He was
fired because of “An intra-family love triangle involving two young sisters one
of them, his wife.”
