Someone lost their parents and their babies on the same day. I can’t imagine what they’re going through
-
A life spent saving lives to end up being shot dead...doesn’t make any sense ....RIP to all
-
Brain trauma is real!! These men love their sports so much and dread retirement. But to go out this way is horrible. 😭
-
This is as awful as it can possibly get, I know it’s from a year ago but I’m sure their family will still need our prayers.
-
Let's not forget the HVAC contractors. One dead, the other in critical condition. They have families too. They were just doing their jobs, expecting to go home that evening. It's tragic all around.
-
I don't know about the rest of y'all but I am so so very tired of seeing stories like this. God bless all of those victims and most definitely those poor children ☹️🙏☹️.
-
Idk much ab the guy, but from how the dad looked and said “I think the football messed him up” def plays a part I’d think

CTE is dangerous to not go unnoticed. The doctor probably didn't care to help him out and just wanted to take his money and feel as he wasn't being helped.
-
Why the children? my God, I can only imagine the pain of the parents losing their children and their father at the same time
-
I don't give a damn about the excuses, there is none for killing innocent people especially young children.
-
Wow lets not talk about these being a possible hate crime.
-
Sadly traumatic brain injuries from contact sports ( CTE ) aren't detected until after their death. like Aaron Hernandez and Frank Gifford just to name a couple. A neuropathologist found an “unusually severe” form of the brain disease in the 32-year-old former N.F.L. player Philip Adams who killed six people in April before shooting himself

I cant imagine what the parent who's kids and parents they were are going through.
-
Omgness this is just utterly astonishing, He killed innocent children. That were just visiting Grandparents and spending time with them. Now these people's lives are shook to the core. Losing your parents and your children at the same time oh, this is heart wrenching.
-
Condolences to families affected for this tragic loss. We have so much sorrow today y’all, we have got to start lifting each other up. ❤️🙏🏼😢
-
Imagine the police officer who had to see those kids. 😢 How could anyone do that?
-
This is just absolutely devastating and sad all around. Can't stop thinking of those young children. It's just sad.
-
Mental health is real. Sometime the demon are hard to over come. Praying for the family that lost so much in one horrible day.
-
CTE is a serious problem amongst these NLF players, Getting hit in the head causes serious issues later on in life ..
-
Senseless, and the young mother and father loss their two little ones while just visiting grandma and grandpa. WTF? 💔
