This isn't being reported?
Things really have gone south haven't they.
It certainly is being reported. At least all over New England news media (radio, TV, papers, blogs, even government radio) is covering it and Indy media all over the place is covering it.
Not in Maine. They have been running a slightly different story for the last week or so.
http://www.foxnews.com/us/2011/06/13/maine-police-find-4-bodies-in-home/DEXTER, Maine – A father angry over being denied access to his children and legally barred from seeing them went to their home Monday morning and killed them, his estranged wife and then himself.
Investigators can't say for sure what pushed Steven Lake over the edge, Maine State Police Maj. Gary Wright said, but a relative told The Associated Press that Lake was frustrated by an ongoing custody dispute and particularly upset at having to miss his son's eighth-grade graduation.
Also, I don't see much returned by Google.
It's a suicide...pretty much local news.
