Austrian man brutally murders entire family with axe:
Reason to Blow Up the World...
An Austrian man gave himself up to police yesterday after hacking his family to death with an axe, allegedly to save them from financial ruin.
The 39-year-old, who for legal reasons has been identified as Reinhard S, first killed his wife, Barbara, 42, and his daughter, Natalie, 7 in their family home in a prosperous Vienna district. By his own admission, he repeatedly struck them on the head with an axe that he had bought at a DIY store.
He then drove 170 kilometres (105 miles) to his parents' house in the city of Linz. He then killed them with repeated blows of the axe as they slept in front of the television in their living room. They were identified as Engelbert and Gabrielle S.
The next stop was Ansfeld, a town near Linz, and home of his father-in-law. The old man, identified as Heinrich R, was felled as he opened his front door. On his return to Vienna, the murderer calmly walked into a police station at 3.20am yesterday covered in blood and in a 'confused state' and confessed to the crimes. 'My dead wife and my dead child are in my flat,' he told the officers.
Police said that the suspect claimed he had murdered his entire family to spare them from disgrace. 'He claims to have borrowed a six-figure sum from someone from the family but then lost it in failed investments,' a police spokesman said. 'According to him, the motive for the gruesome murders was to spare his family from the shame of finding out that he become financially ruined.'
Of course the sick SOB claims to have tried to kill himself but botched the attempt. I seriously doubt that he did that. he could kill several members of hos own family with no problem but couldn't kill himself without screwing it up?
And just what the hell is in the water in Austria? First we have the chamber of horrors raping his daughter guy and now this assclown.
One point for each murder, which is five, one more point for allegedly botching your suicide, and one last point for being an irresponsible for asshole who can't handle his own failures. That's seven.
