Dad a "suspect" in murder-suicide involving 4-year-old daughter (Fort Myers, Florida)

Okay, admittedly this is breaking news. But it's still terribly confusing. Why is there no mention of this child's mother? What happened to her? Was Dad married to her? Is this a single dad? Did he have custody? What?

Dad is identified as JOHN MEDINA.
