Thank you for the updated links.

It is mind boggling at the true evil that happened here. It is just too much to even comprehend how another could not only plan but carry out these depraved acts without blinking an eye.

God Bless Mary Anderson. On Christmas Eve she had all of her family now she is left alone to deal with it all.

imoo

its also mind boggling how we a mother can give birth and unconditionally love our children for one of them to murder us plus father, son and grandchildren a whole family and roots has been practically wiped out
this was shown here on the local news and it horrified us all...

This was such a horrific murder. I cannot even begin to understand any of this senseless crime. Bad enough to shoot anyone, but to hold a gun to a small child's head, apologize for having to kill them and then pull the trigger. It makes me literally sick to my stomach.

My heart is so saddened by this crime.

Goes to show you not everybody has a high regard for human lives and to think the puke apologizes to the kids and puts a bullet in their heads and the gist of what I am hearing is Michelle felt her family did not care about her enough which is probably crap, they were living there rent free and the parents I guess were going to ask that they pay rent so they killed the family over that too? I hope to Christ on a cracker they get the DP as these two murdering scum dirtbags need not be in society again. Kills the kids so they won't ID them, that is as low as you can go and I hope till the day they die with a needle in their arms ,that they never know any peace and it is too bad that these scumbags will be in PC till they hit death row as I betcha inmates are itching to get their hands on these baby killers and to me that is a travesty of justice, these people did not deserve what they got from their worthless daughter and her low-life boyfriend. My heart goes out to the family members.

Do you remember the Earnest Lee Hargon case out of MS? This case reminds me of that one. Same evilness, greed and revenge and another black heart.

Never mind that ELH was no good and neglected his aging father and when around him was abusive. None of that mattered to ELH. What mattered was when his father passed away he learned he had been cutout of the Will and Mr. Hargon gave his assets to his nephew who had looked after and tenderly cared for him many years. So what does ELH do? He comes 70 miles to Michael's home and he murders the nephew right in front of his wife and little son. Then he kidnaps them and brutally murders the mother and the little 4 year old boy who had known him all of his short life and threw them both away like garbage. Did it bother him to look into the eyes of a terrified child and murder him? Imo absolutely not.

These kind of murderers have no consciences. What they want is all that matters. They are filled with evil, greed and a feeling of self entitlement no matter if they are the PROBLEM!

If the Hargon family had been larger he would have killed them all of one by one just as these monsters did to the Anderson family.

IMO it is these kind of cases that shows the truly evil that can walk among us.

I hope Mary Anderson has Aunts and Uncles who are giving her loving support and they are all leaning on each other for strength to endure.

I have numerous stories on this case. Some have said she had gotten into Devil Worship. Another story her Grand Parents had a lot of money and she had recently been cut out of the will. In her opinion her Brother owed her money. At one time they had a joint venture painting cars. They say they purposely waited to kill her brothers family. They first went towards Canada. Then they decided to go towards Oregon. Then they returned planning to 'discover' the bodies. The deputies were there. They immediately aroused suspicion that they did not ask what happened or what was going on. I can't imagine what in the h*ll those two were thinking. Murdering 5 & 3 yo kids...
Justice is not enough.

As I have gotten older I have realized that money is evil, or at least a large contributor. It is a means of survival and without it we couldn't survive. But I am really amazed at how many people let money take over their lives. To put money above everything else in your life will lead to disaster. It brings out the selfish, the greediness and ruthlessness in some people. This girl was obviously troubled and would only see things the way she wanted to. Instead of looking around her and feeling foturnate that she has a family, a roof over her head etc., she'd rather get rid of them than have to contribute to her existence. Did she really feel that at 29 years old she shouldn't have to pay for a residence?? She was lucky she didn't have to live in a real apartment. It just seems like she felt she did nothing wrong over the years and everything was everyone else's fault. Was she just going to kill any person that disagreed with her or told her to do something???? I have no real mercy for these two. She probably feels pity for herself, yet there are others out there busting their butts to make a living. She couldn't get a job and make something of herself??? What a sad story. The innocent always suffer.

How many stupid people must be behind bars for murder after killing someone over money? Insurance money, getting rid of their spouses because they have a new love, but he/she does not have the money the hubby/wife they want wasted so they have them killed and in the end, they get caught and end up behind bars for life or on death row and still they don't have any money. But they were willing to risk it all. I still have my doubts about Howard K. Stern. I refused to get into discussions about this case as the media wet themselves over her life and death and I still feel it is hinky that Daniel dies suddenly, and then x amount months later, ANS dies of a drug overdose, the same thing they claim Daniel passed away from? I don't buy Mr Stern's crap. He knew that baby is not his, but he sure as hell knew that baby would inherit millions of dollars and with Anna and Daniel out of the way, and then came Larry Birkhead who pissed in his cornflakes and ordered a DNA test and all that went to hell for old Howie who to me was nothing more than Anna's lapdog and maybe someday the true will come out. I watch that show Snapped a lot and just about every case is a woman having her husband wasted, most times for the money, other times because he beat the hell out of them. These dirtbags here, sounds like they did it possibly over money and for that they should get the DP. Killing the parents was bad enough, but the babies? I can't fathom ever harming a child in any way and to murder them in cold blood so they won't ID them is deplorable at the least. Watch kids, Michelle will try to turn in around on the boyfriend, he made her do it or some crap and she will try to diminish her her actions and the boyfriend did murder the kids as they claim so he might very well be the first to see death row. Either way, these people should not be breathing right now, but they will for at least another 20 years and the two kids, 20 years from now might have been in college, married have children of their own and these dirtbags robbed them of their precious lives for being greedy, scumbag, murdering dirtbags!

money comes and goes..
a murdered family cant....
those murderers deserve the DP.

For the victims

In one of the articles in the links above, McEnroe is talking about murdering the children, after telling them he had to do it. He is saying that, after he shot Nathan, the baby picked up the shells and looked at him as tho he "understood" why he needed to die. GMAB!!!! A 3 y/o baby doesn't "understand" much of any explanations, let alone why his aunt and "uncle" are shooting everyone.

Even if the baby WAS old enough to understand, does he think that in someway it lessens the senselessness, the evilness of it all? That people will not be quite so disgusted and angered at him? It is all about him--maybe that lessens his evilness in HIS mind.

all I can say about these two devils is that they must have been on something & also both mentally ill big time. I believe it will come out later that they were addicts plus total nut cases. mo

Yes, they must be "nuts" to be able to pull off six murders, including two children. However, they are not criminally insane, I'll bet, and the odds of two people having a psychotic break at exactly the same time are astronomical. I predict that they will both try to plead out for a life sentence and remove the chance of being put to death.

So not only are they vicious killers, I think they're also cowards.

JMO of course

Some posters who know my views will know that I oppose the DP on principle.

This is where it stops.

Those sorry excuses for people don't even deserve a trial, IMO.

I believe they should be shown the same mercy they showed their victims, especially the children. It would be appropriate, IMO, if they were made to feel each and every one of their shots as someone apologises for shooting them to death.

Money? That's just the surface, IMO. I think there may be something which goes deeper. But nothing, NOTHING excuses the cold blooded murder of a whole family, children who've done nothing but be in the wrong place at the wrong time.

This is the first time I'll state this opinion against my own principles, and I hope it's the last:

they should suffer the same fate as their victims.

With the added factor that they get a "defense" where their victims had none, they should suffer a lot first, thinking of their "loved" ones they killed, and for what? that money that they will never see, the love they will never have, the lives they took and gave away for nothing.

The almighty dollar. I wonder how much it will serve them where they're going.

Most likely those 2 would sit forever and not ever acknowledge her family didn't deserve to die by their hands. They probably won't "miss" the love, cuz it sounds like she never felt it to begin with. I wonder how many times her parents got her out of a bind--like helping with rent, and initially letting them live rent free. Or, probably helped with the expenses related to keeping a vehicle running. Or, as was reported by a neighbor, made sure there was food to eat.

Did she ever appreciate that? Or realize her parents provided this because they loved her and didn't want her to be on the street or starving? Or is she like so many people these days--thinking it was OWED to her, just because she is her?

They sound like takers only, and believing that they deserve all the things they can get without actually having to lift a finger to get them. That the world owes them, especially her parents.

No, I don't think they will mourn the losses--except that they are in jail for the murders, and that now, who is going to provide for her? (Oh, yeah, that would be the good taxpayers of the state.)

[SaraSidle]

I cannot imagine anything more appropriate for the death penalty. It is an obvious crime of greed and that is all.

I think they will, all of them. Everyone has lost so much,that there's not much else to lose, IMO.

I reiterate my opinion that the the guilty parties get exactly what they dealt to their family, and I'm still opposed to the DP in principle. Go Figure.

But no-one gets to kill innocent and defenceless people, most importantly children who had nothing to do with their dispute over money or whatever. Those children were just starting to know how to live and relied on their parents and extended family for everything in their growing lives, as is right.

To wilfully kill your own familily over money, or anything, for that matter, is totally beyond my understanding, and I'm so very gratefulf for that.

Those people need serious "help", in more ways than one, IMO, and the sooner the better, and for as long as it takes. Forever sounds good right now, for their own protection as well as everyone else's, IMO.
