Huh? Why would you or anyone be scared to leave your home? All those murders you've mentioned weren't street crimes, they were domestic in nature.

The Police are terrific, they represent us. Its a mission that is tough. Just honor the constitution unlike our politicians in D.C. Be ready to leave the force when the one world gov't takes hold. Thanks officers.

What in the world is wrong with this town? I have never seen so many murder-suicides. in the last 6 months there has been two murder-suicides and a murder of a beautiful young girl.It is getting so that people are scared to even leave their homes.I think this town is growing to fast and seems like they don't care what kind of people move in to this town.Pray for everyone in this town that God will watch over all of us.

I am so sad for both families and for the officers that had to witness the sorrowful event. Bless the police officer that took the bullet in the arm; pray that he will be well again to take care of our town. Divorce is such a tradgedy. It messes up families and has major consequences. My condolences to all involved in this senseless act. Brad's parents, you are probably suffering just as much as it was your son. My prayers are with all of you.

Dear people of Kingman and surrounding areas. Pray for your neighbors, get to know them. Find and encourage the good in them. Be grateful and thankful for the services your recieve in this community. Reach out and be available during troubles. Get involved doing good. Perhaps our community could knit itself together even closer so evil can't find any empty souls. God comfort this family, and may everyone do one unselfish act in thier name for someone who can't pay you back. Just think how many people live here and everyone pursue the good. It could just manage to wipe out evil for good. A citizen

From bloomberg.com: "Murder, Suicide Rates Climb When Jobs Vanish and Economy Slows"

July 8 (Bloomberg) -- Murders and suicides spike with unemployment, U.S. and European researchers said.

The scientists, who combed through almost four decades of European Union records, found that a 1 percent increase in joblessness brings about a 0.8 percent rise in suicide and murder rates. In that scenario, the scientists also found a 28 percent surge in deaths from alcohol abuse, a link that “lends support to the notion that short-term negative effects of unemployment mainly affect psychological distress”

@Long Time--What would repealing the gun laws do? This distraught man you speak of was dedicated to his purpose of seeing her dead. Do you think not having a gun available would have prevented this? What about kitchen knives, are we going to ban those too because they are used by domestic violent offenders to stab their victims to death, cable wire for choking, toilets for drowning, anything that boils water for burning, and then there are all sorts of household goods that are used to beat the victim to death. How far do you want to take this before you start focusing on the actual domestic violence crimes and what motivates these offenders?

Bless the Mack family in this hour of need. It is a very sad thing indeed, but it is not only happening in Kingman, but in cities around the US.. I just logged on our home town paper & found the same thing happening. These times are hard & make the domestic life even harder.Thank heavens for a community that helps in times like this.

Now, lets not get carried away with repealling gun laws. The law didn't fire that gun, a distraught man did. Women who are afraid of their significant other - PLEASE seek help. You may die otherwise.

To those who wonder what is happening here in Kingman...one word: Methamphetamine!

It makes people crazy, it literally burns holes into their brains.

Laws need to get tough with both users and manufacturers of meth, REAL tough, with REAL hard jail time before things will actually start to change around here!

I haven't heard a good word for the Police Officer that did his duty by putting himself in harm's way and I dare a one of you to say he was only doing his job. He may have been doing his job but how many of you are willing to get out everyday and take a bullet from some idiot that don't care.

I didn't realize that Holly Anderson was part of the L.E. community. She is a hero for saving the life of her precious child. I am saddened at what the city of Kingman has been having to endure in the last month. Bless this child and I hope she has family to take good care of her and love her. I hope they let her know that her mom loved her so dearly she gave her life for her. God rest this angels soul. Rest in peace, my condolences to the family of Holly.
