Why?

[The_Dream_Recluse]

This morning in Brisbane, where I live, a young woman was found dead with stab wounds. And another woman drove onto the busiest bridge in this city, with a 4 year old in the car and stopped in the middle of traffic and jumped off to her death. Apparently it was a murder suicide. I don't know all the details yet, but it makes me wonder, what possesses someone to do something like this?

I find it extremely sad and tragic. I couldn't stab someone or kill myself. Let alone jump off a bridge.

Yeah i saw it on the news that night, it was terrible. Obviously something led her to snap, whether it was work commitments, or finance problems or even trouble with her partner/husband. When people are backed into a corner, they will almost always do anything to escape, even if it involves murdering someone they love (in this case her daughter). Maybe she and her daughter had a fight and then she just snapped and killed her. Who knows.

As for the suicide, well i think it's because she felt so much hate for herself for what she had done that she couldn't handle it. It's a tragedy really
