"Fall of the Father of the Year"

Here's an interesting take on the guy who murdered his estranged wife and attempted to kill the judge in his pending divorce case: the author--who did extensive legal work for the "suspect" in the suspect's first bitter divorce, believes the suspect may have been too wrapped up in fatherhood. Uh, I don't think so. The answer to the problem of men killing their estranged wives and the judges attempting to sort through the tangled web of broken marriages is not for more men to sire numerous offspring in jiffy marriages-of-convenience. Keeping one's distance from the pain and heartache of commitment in marriage is not the remedy to the pain and heartache of marriage and parenting. That may seem like the only option when viewed through the lens of a divorce lawyer and Liberal legal pundit, but it is foolishness.

This guy, Darren Mack, is scum. And thankfully his children were protected from his narcissistic perspective of the best possible course of action (which is too often, killing everyone associated with the marriage).
