Florida Police Believe 4 Bodies Found Beside Highway to Be 'Family'

FORT PIERCE, Fla. — Two adults and two children, believed by police to be a family, were found shot to death Friday morning along an isolated stretch of Florida's Turnpike in St. Lucie County, with the woman clutching the two children in an apparent attempt to protect them, authorities said.

A witness alerted Florida Highway Patrol troopers to the bodies of a man, woman, boy and girl on the southbound shoulder south of the Route Midway Road in Port St. Lucie around 7:45 a.m., according to the St. Lucie County Sheriff's Office.

Investigators believe the victims' vehicle had pulled to the side of Florida's Turnpike before someone else in the vehicle shot them and drove away sometime between 1:30 and 3 a.m., Sheriff Ken Mascara said.

"They were killed by multiple gunshot wounds," Mascara told reporters Friday afternoon.

We're certain the murderer(s) had a legit reason to murder four valued and loved members of the civilized world: his kindergarten classmates mocked him, he wasn't chosen first for dodgeball, the pervert in the park had a present in his pants.

Or he wanted something they had and didn't feel like working for it.

Whatever.

Four people whose existence made the world a better place were slaughtered by someone the world will be better off without.

Life in prison is not proportionate punishment for this sort of crime.

Strapping him to a chair and exposing him to the same terror he inflicted on his innocent victims is a start.

Deterrent? Who knows.

Appropriate punishment for the crime -- you bet.

Here's hoping you get what you deserve, asshole.
