    any mention of the ages of the grandkids? We these minors?

    I truly wish all these bastards would get their death sentence on the spot. I know the " Legal System" gets their time and billable hours first, but damn letting these monsters continue to get free air , three hots and a cot for the next 40+ years. First class trial, followed by a first class execution upon being found guilty .
    Ive heard he is no longer a threat! Heard he shot himself inside a house.

    The gunman who killed five people including a prominent doctor in South Carolina was former NFL pro Phillip Adams, who killed himself early Thursday, according to a source who was briefed on the investigation.

    The source, who spoke on condition of anonymity because he wasn’t authorized to speak publicly, said Adams’ parents live near the doctor’s home in Rock Hill, and that he had been treated by the doctor. The source said Phillips killed himself after midnight with a .45 caliber weapon.

    The York County Sheriff’s Office said they had searched for hours before finding the suspect in a nearby home.

    The York County coroner’s office said Dr. Robert Lesslie, 70, and his wife, Barbara Lesslie, 69, were pronounced dead at the scene along with grandchildren Adah Lesslie, 9, and Noah Lesslie, 5.

    A man who had been working at the home, James Lewis, 38, from Gaston, was found shot to death outside, and a sixth person was hospitalized with “serious gunshot wounds,” York County Sheriff’s Office’s spokesperson Trent Faris said.

    Faris said deputies were called around 4:45 p.m. Wednesday to the Lesslies’ home in the Rock Hill area, and spent hours searching for the suspect before finding him in a nearby home.

    “We have found the person we believe is responsible and we are with him at this time and that’s all I can say about the suspect,” Faris said.

    The investigation is ongoing, he said.

    “Dr. Lesslie was my doctor growing up,” Faris said. “Dr. Lesslie has been one of those people that everybody knows. He started Riverview Medical Center in Rock Hill and it’s been a staple in Rock Hill for years.”

    A biography page of Dr. Lesslie said he and his wife of 35 years raised four children. He had been practicing medicine in Rock Hill since 1981, according to the Riverview website. He received his degree at the Medical University of South Carolina and has worked in the surrounding Rock Hill area and Charlotte, North Carolina.

    Rock Hill is a city in northernmost South Carolina about 25 miles (40 kilometers) southwest of Charlotte, North Carolina.

    The sad thing is that if the races were reversed none of us would feel any differently. But, the coverage by the racist media would be totally different.

    The only perfect ending from him would of been drug behind a car at 10mph until the concrete grinded him away.

    Prepare for the media to blame concussions from the NFL.

    Dr. Leslie treated me numerous times at Riverview when I lived in Rock Hill and was an awesome Dr. He has stitched me up more times than I can remember, he and my father worked together in the ER and knew each other on a first-name basis.

    Prayers to the Leslie family and the other victims from GSM.

    One of the victims that worked at GSM was an awesome person and we shared job referrals for the last couple years. This situation is absolutely heartbreaking prayers for all right now.

    This is very tragic. Prayers for this family in the days ahead. Plenty more I really would like to say but I’ll just keep it to myself.
