Dastardly Dads: Police: Dad killed 8-year-old son, son's mom in murder-suicide (Varkaus, Finland)

Contrary to fathers' rights propaganda, father perpetrators (along with stepdads and caretaker boyfrends) dominate the most vicious crimes against children: sexual assault, abusive head trauma, murder-suicides, crimes involving gun violence, and other similar forms of physically violent/fatal child abuse. And as more dads are providing child care (either because mom is working and can't find other care, or because dads are increasingly getting unsupervised visitation/custody through the family courts), more dads are are being found guilty of basic child abuse and neglect as well.

10/25/15 -Because of severe time constraints, we are no longer able to do regular updates at Dastardly Dads. We will occasionally post articles on general studies on child abuse/domestic violence, news pieces involving abusive fathers in custody/visitation situations. We wil also be updating the Killer Dads and Custody lists, while looking for a better, more accessible platform for the data.

7/11/16 - We started this blog on June 24, 2009--just over seven years. And like all good things, it's time to bring this project to a close. It has served its purpose. We have close to 10,500 postings regarding fathers and child abuse, with hundred of those cases being enabled by the family courts, social services, and others in authority. The documentation is clear. It is now time to stop documenting and put that energy into changing the situation that puts thousands of mothers and children at risk every day.

Father suspected of double homicide-suicide
published yesterday 09:00 PM, updated today 09:37 AM

Police in the eastern Finnish town of Varkaus have found three bodies in a private home in the Käpykangas neighbourhood. A man, woman and a eight-year-old child, were apparently all members of the same family. Police believe that the man shot and killed his wife and son before taking his own life.

North Savo Police initially declined to say much about the case, such as whether the victims died as the result of an accident or foul play. The incident is now being investigated as a double homicide.

The bodies were discovered around 6pm Monday after relatives expressed concern about not being able to contact members of the family.

Few details have been released of the ongoing investigation.
