The first set of people, the family that was a murder/suicide was as normal as anyone else. They did all the normal things a family would do and lived in the building for 5 years. We never seen that coming and it was quite a shock. My landlord did let me pick the new people that moved into that apartment and they are great As far as the latest incident, I thought the woman was a little off, but she tried to be nice to everyone...they as a couple had issues and she was abusive to him, he always walked away. The man was the building's maintenance guy and fixed everything that needed fixing. Other then them fighting, they kept to themselves, had jobs and loved their dogs, really nothing that would predict what happened. Its just so sad. I kinda miss hearing the dogs running back and forth, my oldest dog keeps looking up there when we are outside

Originally I was scared too, because they were eerily quiet. I am moving, looking for a house, hoping more come on the market in the spring.

I agree, but I think the lurking bothers me more, because I don't know the lurkers. I did know the "killers" in both situations, but its like in both cases they just completely lost it. I wouldn't be surprised if the woman that killed her husband kills herself or attempts to while in prison. She was a depressed person that did things before she thought about it. I'm pretty sure she stabbed him, realized what she did, freaked out, called the cops, wouldn't answer the door which led to the cops kicking it in. I think that he was trying to leave and she attacked him, I don't believe it was planned or that she even realized what she did until it was to late.

This kind of stuff happens in every neighborhood.I would definitely keep an eye out for anything unusual and move as soon as possible.

I agree that you should call animal control to see if the dogs are there, if you have any interest in caring for them. The wife might be talked by animal control into releasing them to you (at least the little one with epilepsy), so that you could foster it until a suitable home can be found. An epileptic dog will not do well in the pandemonium of a shelter environment.

I'm going to call them tomorrow. She is so tiny, she is a very small boston terrier. We don't have an animal control in town, so I don't know how it works. I hope they are okay. They are both good dogs and don't deserve to be passed around. I tried twice to get them Friday night going into Saturday. The police probably thought I was crazy because I was up pretty much all night with my stomach in knots. There was nothing I could do for either of the people, but I could help with the dogs. Technically I could even keep them in the apartment upstairs until its emptied by whoever is emptying it, so that they aren't with my dogs. I'm sure I could get them homes or into a nice rescue.
