Devoted Husband And Father
Skyler Drevan

John Kramer was devoted to his wife and father of thirty seven years. He would tend to his family’s every need whether they were ill or well. John and his wife Nancy were inseparable. They had three children, two which died tragically two years ago in a car accident on New Years Eve. That tragedy brought the family closer together. Nancy and her only surviving daughter Margaret thought that John was overly protective of them. He didn’t want Nancy or Margaret to leave the house without his being present nor did he like them going more than three months without seeing a doctor. He was paranoid and protective of his family like no other. As John’s paranoia grew greatly, his close friends and family began to suggest that he seek help and admit himself into a hospital for treatment. One particular event that suggested to the neighbors, in particular John’s close friend Eva, that he needed severe help was one night when she had to call the police. While paying John a visit, she noticed that he was in bed with his daughter Margaret and wife Nancy. When John was questioned about being in bed with them, he said that the only way he could protect them from harm was to put them out of harms way. So he poisoned them and laid in bed next to them until he was certain their souls were safe in Gods protective hand. Soon after Eva called the police, John said he was convinced that they were safe and then he shot himself in the head with a .38 caliber pistol.
