I'm not going to say anything here about what I am thinking. What I think doesn't matter. I'll just let the law enforcement officers do their job, and I believe they are on this one, determined to find the answers to the questions.
Condolences to all who love the people involved. Prayers are lifted for the Yancey children, Derrick and Linda's families, for the family of the man yet to be identified, and for truth and justice.

Update: Linda Yancey also worked for Dekalb - as a jail and juvenile officer and there were prior domestic violence and/or disturbance calls to the Yancey home.
