At present Issa has only been charged with one count of premeditated murder The investigation is ongoing and prosecutors did not give details about the death of Amir's mother, The LA Times wrote. However, early reports on the attack by The Daily News Tuesday quote police as saying that she had been stabbed to death. According to that article, Issa told police that he had found his wife's body, then encountered his son who threatened him with a knife. 'A shooting then took place,' it claimed. But Operations-Valley Bureau Homicide Detective John Doerbecker, quoted in the article, denied that account. 'The suspect made incriminating statements implicating himself in the death of [the son] and was arrested for murder,' he told the paper. 'He claimed [the son] was armed with a knife, and there was no knife to be found [there]. It was a horrible family tragedy.'

Administrators Gail Posted April 3, 2016 Administrators Posted April 3, 2016 So... why? Where does it end? If you want your church members to become murderers, is this how to do it? Quote Isaiah 32:17 And the work of righteousness shall be peace; and the effect of righteousness quietness and assurance for ever.

It has been all over our local tv in our area cause we are in CA. Has it been all over national newscasts? I found this and didn't realize this family had SDA connections. My beloved Church. on a personal level.... Is there mental illness involved? The mother was killed too. A family thing. Goes deep and insidious with a long history. The root of bitterness started a long time ago for sure. Was there ever a possibility of the Family of God to be connected and transparent facilitating resources for help and healing? so awful on many levels Quote For all Eternity God waited in anticipation for You to show up to give You a Message - YOUR INCLUDED !!! { a merry dance }?️?
