This is gut wrenching. The link leads to a video. The mother/grandmother of the victims shows incredible compassion towards the killer.

QuoteJACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- The lone survivor of a murderous rampage in Jacksonville's Oceanway neighborhood Friday has a message she wants to deliver. Speaking from her hospital bed through her mother, Megan Hiatt wants to get the word out about domestic violence.

Megan Hiatt, 22, lost her five-month-old twins, Hayden Rose and Kayden Reese Hiatt, and her father, Travis James Hiatt, 49, in a murder-suicide Friday afternoon. The shooter, Gawain Rushane Wilson, 28, shot and killed himself after the rampage.

Hiatt was rushed to UF Health Jacksonville where she's still recovering. Her mother, Melissa Bateh, spoke with First Coast News at Hiatt's request.

Really sad. Saw it on some national news sites "related news links" and had no idea it was that Jax multiple homicide story from a few weeks ago until I clicked on it.
