MILTON, Mass. (AP) - Police say they don't know why a Milton, Mass., man fatally stabbed his 17-year-old sister and decapitated his 5-year-old sister just a day after her birthday.
Milton police Chief Richard G. Wells Jr. says 23-year-old Kerby Revelus had turned toward his 9-year-old sister with a knife in his hand before officers shot him dead. The girl is hospitalized with stab wounds. The children's parents were away at the time of the attack.
Wells says Revelus had gotten into a fistfight with a man living next door about 24 hours earlier and had been agitated in the hours that followed that.
According to Wells, Revelus had recently served jail time on a gun charge. And he says officers had been called to the family's house in 2004 after a domestic violence report.
A neighbor calls the family "solid." He says it "completely makes no sense."

I WANT TO KNOW WHY AN AUTOPSY WOULD BE DONE ON THIS MAN! YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME! WHY DO THEY EVEN CARE WHICH SHOT KILLED HIM? HE WOULD HAVE KILLED EVERYONE IN THE HOUSE! THANK GOD IN HEAVEN THAT THE 9 YEAR OLD HAD THE SENSIBILITY TO CALL 911. THAT POOR BABY WILL NEVER FORGET SUCH CARNAGE. TAKE THE MONEY YOU'RE GONNA SPEND ON A AUTOPSY AND PUT IT TO GOOD USE BY HELPING THIS CHILD.
AN AUTOPSY ON A MASS MURDERER...YOUR TAXES AT WORK FOLKS.
perhaps the autopsy is to look for any substances in the murderers system. some attempt to try and make sense of something so horrifying and tragic.
Yes. Why would you not perform an autopsy? This man was clearly mentally unstable.
