Very Sad Story

This very sick man walked into Our Lady of Peace Church during Mass last year and shot to death the priest and a parishioner. He had been treated for paranoid schizophrenia and was not taking his medicines. He had been educated at Chaminade High School, my alma mater, and today called as character witnesses, four of the priests and brothers from the school who taught him. Ironically, they also teach at least one family member of the murdered parishioner. The sick man comes from a good Catholic family, the priest was an great priest, and the parishioner came from a good Catholic family which had already had more than its fair share of troubles. The whole situation is just awful.
