Deputies: 11-year-old daughter witnessed dad kill mom, grandfather (Stone Island, Florida)

Unbelievably revolting what dad CARLOS NEGRON has done to his family. He shot and killed his wife, who was in the process of divorcing him, and his father-in-law. And all in front of their 11-year-old daughter--another act of unbelievable cruelty. Then the coward offed himself.

STONE ISLAND – The shots that rang out in this quiet Southeast Volusia County neighborhood Monday morning didn't just leave three people dead. They shattered the life of an 11-year-old girl who watched in horror as her father killed her mother and grandfather and then turned the gun on himself.

Adrianna Negron ran from the house and sought help from a neighbor who, along with a woman walking her dog, dialed 911 to report the shooting. That was just before 8:15 a.m. Minutes later, deputies arrived to find three bodies on the back porch of the home in the 400 block of Sunset Road, on the north shore of Lake Monroe.

Deputies identified the gunman as 39-year-old Carlos Negron and the victims as Philip T. Spinney, 73, and his daughter, Lara Negron, 41. A gun was found near Carlos Negron's body, Sheriff's spokesman Gary Davidson said.

To experience such a loss would be devastating for any child, but for Adrianna, it is much worse because she witnessed it, said Elizabeth R. Hollingsworth, a licensed mental health counselor at the Hollingsworth Counseling Center in Orlando.

"The initial reaction is shock. At first it may not even seem real," said Hollingsworth, adding that the child's feelings toward her father before the shooting will play into how she reacts. "It's hard for an 11-year-old to comprehend. It's so imperative that the child get therapy from someone who specializes in both children and trauma."

Hollingsworth and other experts say the experience will change the way Adrianna thinks about human beings, about mankind and even about the safety of the world.

"This is a major tragedy for this child," said John Harrell, a spokesman with the state Department of Children and Families. "Our priority is to connect the child with counseling services as soon as possible. We will evaluate the counseling and therapy she will receive over an ongoing period of time. We will try to help relieve the pain this child might be feeling."

Harrell could not disclose if DCF had previous investigations involving the child or the Negrons. He said DCF will try to find a suitable relative with whom to place the girl. Officials must make sure that the home is safe and that the relatives are qualified to take care of the girl, he said.

Investigators said the Negrons were separated and in the process of divorcing. Lara Negron and Adrianna were living with Spinney at his Stone Island home. She and Carlos Negron married in Seminole County in 1999, court records show.

Spinney was a "nationally known" commercial real estate broker, said Steven Moreira, president and principal broker at Magic Properties & Investments Inc. in Longwood.

"Phil and I have been together for 15 years," Moreira said. "He has been my commercial real estate broker for 12 years."

Everyone in his office "is still in a state of shock," he said.

Spinney had a liver transplant nine years ago and lived every day as if it was his last, Moreira said.

"He was a religious man. He was a man of faith and principals," Moreira said. "He was not afraid to die. He was more worried about the safety of his daughter and his granddaughter."

As revolting as Negron's actions were, they didn't take place in a vacuum. They didn't come out of the blue or without warning. Thanks to my buddy Annie's skill in ferreting out legal records, we can see that this guy had an extensive record of domestic violence going back for nearly a decade--and probably further back than that. Notice that Negron was arrested on a charge of misdemeanor battery/domestic violence in 2001, but the charge was dropped. Typical for the state of Florida. Go easy on batterers--that way they know they will never be held accountable for their actions.
