Albert Peterson shot dead his wife and two sons hours after going to church because he dreaded the thought of Obama being re-elected in the election, a family friend has revealed.
A friend of the family for the past 25 years talked about the strength and grace of the Peterson family, as well as the torment that plagued Albert which drove him to shoot his wife Kathleen and his two sons Christopher and Mathew at their suburban home in DC on Sunday.
A history of mental illness, the loss of a dear uncle, and a growing fear of Obama winning a second term in the White House took its toll on the mind of Mr. Peterson, a wealthy defense contractor, the friend said. ‘He just did not want his kids inheriting this mess,’ Maggie L, who did not wish to reveal her last name. ‘Sometimes we thought he might take his own life when he was so depressed. We never thought he would take Kathie’s.’
Albert, 57, Kathleen, 52, Matthew, 16, and Christopher, 13, were found Tuesday just after noon inside their home in Herndon, Virgina. Co-workers reported to police that they were concerned that Mr. and Mrs. Peterson had not reported to work for the past two days.
Mr. Peterson was a defense contractor and Mrs. Peterson worked at Blackbird Technologies, a company that specializes in defense, law enforcement and intelligence work.
Chris was an eighth grader at Rachel Carson Middle School and Matthew was a sophomore at Westfield High School. Both were avid soccer players and active at their church.
The preliminary police investigation indicates that Albert Peterson killed his wife and their children before taking his own life. Each of the deceased died of gunshot wounds to the upper body. Police have confirmed Mr. Peterson’s feelings toward politics were unusually passionate, but declined to speculate what precipitated the tragedy.

What a Coward. Kill your family over an election and not after 8 years of Bush SAD!
