Man kills wife, five kids, himself after being fired

LOS ANGELES, California (CNN) -- A man apparently despondent about losing his job killed his wife and five children before turning the gun on himself, officials said Tuesday.

The bodies of five children and two adults -- the children's mother and father -- were found Tuesday in a home in the Los Angeles neighborhood of Wilmington. Among the dead, authorities said, were an 8-year-old girl and two sets of twins -- 5-year-old girls and 2-year-old boys.

Ervin Lupoe apparently called 911 and contacted a television station by fax before committing suicide, authorities said.

I wonder why both he and his wife were fired.

No problem. Just thought I would let you know incase you didn't get many responses.

The earlier report didn't say they were fired just that "he" had some job related issues. But I did see in the origianl story their boss told them they should have stayed home and killed themselves" or something along those linesChat Icon

Edited to correct the statement.

KABC reported that the man claimed in the fax that a medical center administrator rebuffed them when they showed up to work, told them to file a union grievance and said, "You should have blown your brains out."

It's just terrible.

For both of them to be fired I wonder if they were caught doing something illegal. Chat Icon

Whatever the situation...he shouldn't have taken those poor babies with him.Chat Icon
