nother neighbor, Alvaro Lopes, told local news station WNEW that Albert Peterson had tried to commit suicide in the past, and that he had been taking new heart attack medication that seemed to affect his personality.
"He seemed dizzy, just different," Lopes said. "Hearing about what happened today made me think that could have something to do with it."
Police would not comment on any possible connection between the deaths and Peterson's medication.
"They were good people," said Lopes.
Neighbor Jim Steele told ABC News station WJLA that the Peterson were a nice family in the neighborhood.
"This is a horrible tragedy," Steele said. "They seemed like a very nice family. Didn't see anything amiss around the house. It's quite a shock."
Blackbird Technologies released a statement confirming that Kathie worked for the company and expressing their shock. The company works with the federal government on intelligence and defense issues, according to The Washington Post.

(20,587 posts)the man was seriously ill. He also thought his employer - a defense contractor insisted employees note for Obama. I find that hard to believe too.

His kids most likely were not. You're implying they deserved to die. That's just not even remotely true.

(3,118 posts)- occurred about 30 minutes from me. I used to live/work in the same town and have been in the church pictured. I don't know anything about these people but I've enough experience with this type situation to say with confidence that there was only one reason that he did this. He was mentally ill.
I lost three cousins - husband, wife, son - to the same mental illness about 14 years ago. Same situation. Upstanding citizens, involved with community, well loved. The husbands family had a history of mental illness on his mother's side. He became depressed and was on medication, which we later learned that he was taking incorrectly and was over-medicating himself. The husband shot the wife and then the son. Always very neat, he laid down on the tile in the bathroom before he put the shotgun in his mouth.
Mental illness was the cause. Not paranoia about politics or money or anything else. Those are merely symptoms of the disease.
Very, very sad. Heartbreaking.

Some of the less stable ones are going to take this "civil war" shit seriously.
There are elected politicians and appointed judges that promote this stuff as well.

And Republicans simply don't know how to play hardball. They still naively think a gentlemanly approach to campaigning wins elections.
