  What I will never understand is how NEVER ONCE, one of the Wagners <b>ever</b> stopped and said “You know what, murdering 8 people is probably not the best way to go about a custody case.. we shouldn’t go through with this..” Instead, they ALL went through with this ghastly plan! It’s extremely rare that a group of this size collectively agrees to something so heinous- especially over something of this nature. There’s clearly something wrong with the entire Wagner family. There was obviously a reason why that child wasn’t going to be allowed to stay in the care of the father- he clearly has a few screws loose, and the judge obviously could tell as well. Such a tragic case. An entire extended family just wiped from the face of the earth. Absolutely heartbreaking.💔

  A custody battle!!! &nbsp;What did they achieve?? &nbsp;The poor girl now has no one!! &nbsp;No parents or grandparents, uncles or aunts!! &nbsp;One family dead and one family in prison. &nbsp;What is wrong with people?? &nbsp;Just share custody like every other family who are separated/divorced. &nbsp;In the end children grow up so quickly this little girl is going to be 20, 30, 40...etc while her Dad rots in prison. &nbsp;Crazy!!

  A custody battle that literally lead to every single person the child should&apos;ve grown up with to no longer be in the child&apos;s life. &nbsp;What is wrong with the way people comprehend and think?

  All of these people all need to be in jail for life without the possibility of parole. I get so annoyed with all these &quot;deals&quot; being given out. Smh

  How they thought they would ever get away with this is baffling to me. You took eight lives in a part of the country where everyone knows everyone. And for what?

  It&apos;s been a long time coming. &nbsp;I give credit to the authorities who spent all the time to carefully collect the evidence and bring some justice to the community.

  I remember this. It was all over custody of a child. Goes to show the extent of evil that exists in this world.

  It’s scary how many mothers are assaulted or killed during divorce and/or custody hearings by ex-partners. This is a disturbing trend, obviously taken to the extreme in this case. That other family is pure evil.

  This story blew my mind when it first happened. Actually, &nbsp;still to this day. Its absolutely insane one family caused this madness. &nbsp;All over custody. &nbsp;Straight out of your worst nightmare. RIP to all that passed &amp; effected by this unnecessary madness.
