So, last night, this man<\/a> takes his five-year-old daughter to the top of an overpass that crosses the busy 401 freeway in Toronto. Then he jumps off the overpass and takes his daughter with him, intent on killing them both.<\/p>\n

Why? How could a father kill his five-year-old daughter? How could a parent ever kills his\/her child? where does the unconditional love go that was there when the child was a baby? How does someone get to the point where something other than the life of his\/her child is more important?<\/p>\n

I cannot fathom this. I cannot fathom ever trying to kill my daughter.<\/p>\n

This girl has not only lost her father but the last memory she will ever carry with her of him will be that he tried to kill her.<\/p>\n

What a sad day.<\/p>\n
