FAYETTEVILLE -- North Carolina police say a real estate developer known as an active member of his church shot and killed his wife and two teen children and then committed suicide in their Fayetteville home.
Authorities did not hint at a motive into the slayings by William Maxwell in an upscale neighborhood of the city Monday night.
Police said Tuesday that 47-year-old Maxwell killed wife Kathryn, 17-year-old Connor and 15-year-old Cameron before turning a gun on himself.
Friends and neighbors say the Maxwells were a friendly family who kept a meticulous yard and were active in their church and their children's religious high school.
Fayetteville is about 50 miles southwest of Raleigh and home to the Army's sprawling Fort Bragg.

Just goes to show that just
Just goes to show that just because you are active in your church doesnt mean you have Christ in your heart. With Jesus in your life, you know He will pull you through the hard times. You wouldnt kill your family!
why?
Why do these idiots always take the life of others! Just off yourselves and leave the rest of your family alone.
but have you ever walked in
but have you ever walked in his shoes..........no, you don't know what a person in that state of mind is dealing with so don't be so quick tongued.
Yeah...I'm sure....
...that there could be some kind of justification that we're missing because we haven't "walked in his shoes," right?
You don't have to be a chicken to tell a rotten egg and you don't have to walk in this guys shoes to know that he was a whacked out loon who will likely be regretting his decision FOR ALL ETERNITY.
You sob-sisters crack me up. Some sleazebag could rape, rob, and kill you and your last thought would be, "Well, I guess he's having a bad day."
He killed his children. It
He killed his children. It doesn't matter one bit what was going through your head when you kill a child. Period.
