Daddy AZIZ YAZDANPANAH was a deadbeat who hadn't held a job in over a decade. But he still gets all pissy because his "estranged" wife was doing well financially without him. What a threat to Daddy's control! So we have the classic Daddy Drama killing spree--while dressed as Santa no less.

Friend: Texas man suspected of killing his family upset that estranged wife was doing well
By Associated Press, Published: December 29
LANCASTER, Texas — Family friends say a Texas man accused of killing six relatives in a Christmas Day murder-suicide was struggling financially and didn’t like that his estranged wife was doing well.
Authorities say 56-year-old Aziz Yazdanpanah (ah-ZEEZ’ YAWZ’-dahn-pahn-aw) was dressed as Santa when he fatally shot his estranged wife, their two teenage children and three other relatives Sunday inside an apartment in the Dallas-Fort Worth suburb of Grapevine.
After a private burial for the six victims Thursday, family friend Azar Shahbazi (AH’-zahr shah-BAH’-zee) said she believed Yazdanpanah was upset because his wife “was doing good on her own.”
The wife’s brother, Ali Rahmaty (AH’-lee rah-MAH’-tee), says he’d been financially supporting the family. He says Yazdanpanah had been unemployed for more than a decade, but says he never thought Yazdanpanah would become violent.
