AP source: NFL pro Phillip Adams killed five, then himself

killed the doctor, his wife and then two grandchildren and a person who was working at the house.

Killed two kids.

Obviously it is a huge story here as it happened about 15 miles away, but what a senseless crime.

especially the two innocent children.

you want to kill yourself? Fine. But don't take innocent people, especially children, with you.

Why anyone? Seriously rot in hell Adams.

As the pandemic winds down, mass shootings start again

So sad & so senseless.

This is horrible news! Life is a precious gift so it is bad when one takes their own life, but he then adds to the calamity by killing five additional people.

That s an awful story.

To find out what he was being treated for ?

atrocities.
Sad beyond words.

Some are thinking CTE played a part

that is what I am thinking as well.

Sounds like a Possibility

I first thought CTE too, but maybe he was just a horrible human being. It's just so sad. 2 kids...the heart breaks.

For taking out other people before they off themselves
How f$caked up can one get to do that
It’s downright evil
Taking your own life is horrible but why others?

As am I.

One of my friends in the medical field worked for that doctor and knew his family well. Tragic.

Not me. Is everyone who's had concussions in their life a danger to society? Are only people who've had concussions subject to depression and/or evil thoughts?

It isn't about concussions, it's about repetitive concussive force.

The sad thing is a lot of people think some are born evil and chalk it up to that. Which would be fine, even if it weren't all that accurate. But you know what the doesn't do? Prevent the next tragedy from happening. We desperately need some better mental health services. I'm curious what the details are, but this didn't sound like a crime of sanity or passion.

A lot of his past teachers are chiming in on social media that they were shocked to find out he did this. Didn't seem like his nature at all.

“My understanding [is] he was treating him, and had, from my understanding, stopped giving him medicine, and that’s what triggered the killings,” Norman said, citing law enforcement.” “Adams, 32, forced his way into Lesslie’s home, killing the 70-year-old doctor, his wife and their two grandchildren.” “The former defensive back also shot two air-conditioning contractors outside the doctor’s home, killing one, before turning the gun on himself.”
