He shot himself during the crime spree and later died at a hospital.

Oh Wow! Those poor people. At least the guy who killed them is dead, so the taxpayer's money won't be wasted on a trial and keeping him in prison.

I'm very sad about this. I had always hoped that the grandmother and the young boy had fled to start a new life somewhere. I just can't believe it. I didn't know them personally, but they lived in the same town as me. This was a huge mystery to all of us. To this very day, there are still posters of both of them all over our town and surrounding area. May peace be with them.
