Dad kills 4-year-old daughter in murder-suicide, had just separated from mother (Cape Coral, Florida)

The "investigation" is the usual Florida BS. This murder has nothing to do with being sad about being unable to be a good provider. It has everything to do with a classic spousal revenge killing--punish Mom for leaving your deadbeat @$$, so you destroy the one she loves best. Too bad this scumbag was provided child access. If he had been deprived of access, there would have been no murder. We need to stop giving unstable, violent  fathers access to kids, especially right after a breakup when they are the most volatile.

Dad is identified as JOHN MEDINA.
