While at work I received a phone call from the Hollywood FL police department informing me of my mothers death. I asked how and was told that it was an apparent murder suicide attempt. My mother and step father left me a letter telling me that they have no purpose here anymore etc. The letter was my Moms and his writing My step father stabbed my Mom in the chest killing her and then tried to stab himself but his was not fatal. He is facing murder one. His family is trying to say that he has been brought down by my Mom and that she depressed him. He is a controlling, intelligent and unstable person. There was 10 hours elapse from the time my Mom died to the time he called 911. He also cleaned up the blood from my Mom and redressed her with clean clothes. I would like to go visit his family as I have read another thread on here that another surviving family member has done to ask his family why they would drag my Moms name through the mud to assist his defense? This whole thing has been even more difficult since they lived in Florida and I am in Pennsylvania.

Hi DJ. I am very sorry to hear about your mom's murder. It sounds like your mom was the one who was "brought down" by her spouse, not the other way around. I can't imagine how someone could commit suicide by letting someone else stab them to death - it doesn't even make sense. Was your mom's actual handwriting on the letter?
It is unlikely that you would get much satisfaction from talking to his family - they have already decided what they want to believe in order to make themselves feel better about supporting him.
It sounds as though there is an extremely strong case against him. I wish you well.
Charlene
