A California man is alleged to have brought pure horror to a well-heeled suburban community near the San Francisco Bay Area when he shot and killed almost every member of his family last week.
Shane Killian, 54, stands accused of four counts of premeditated murder in the first degree, one count of attempted murder, and associated firearms charges, according to the Alameda Police Department. He is also accused of domestic violence, elder abuse, and a wide array of aggravating charges and special allegations.
The defendant killed his wife, his 6-year-old son, his mother-in-law, and his father-in-law, police say. Killian is also alleged to have shot and critically injured his 1-year-old son who is still recuperating at the UC San Francisco Benioff Childrens Hospital in Oakland.
On the night of June 10, the violence unfolded at the familys residence on Kitty Hawk Road near the corner of Franciscan Way. Officers responded to a call from the defendants father-in-law, who briefly escaped the massacre to call for help at a neighbors house.

(2,704 posts)4. Male Domination?
I keep asking why there is not a national program to teach girls and women the signs of an abusive man and what makes females venable to abusive men. And those of you who say well women are abusive also, fine the knowledge could be used to stop a relationship with an abusive female but more males express this destructive aspect and it seems like to me the culture does not want to deal with this problem
