Man Sought in Murder of Wife, 5 Children
Florida authorities are searching for a 33-year-old man after his wife and five children were found dead in their Naples home this weekend.
From CNN:
The bodies of Guerline Damas, 32; Michzach, 9; Marven, 6; Maven, 5; Megan, 3; and Morgan, 11 months, were discovered Saturday, Rambosk said.
Authorities have been unable to locate Mesac Damas, who possibly left the country Friday morning and may be in Haiti, Capt. Chris Roberts of the Collier County sheriff’s department said Sunday at a news conference.
“We don’t see at this point any indication of an individual out in the neighborhoods committing additional crimes or homicides, but certainly we will look at every opportunity,” Collier County Sheriff Kevin Rambosk said at an earlier news conference.
There had been a “handful” of domestic disturbance calls to police since 2000 involving the Damas couple, with the latest resulting in the arrest of Mesac Damas in January, Roberts said. Mesac Damas pleaded no contest to the misdemeanor battery against Guerline Damas in June, and Roberts said he does not think Mesac Damas served any jail time for the crime.
“We are still talking to people that knew the family and obviously the ultimate information we need is not so much what happened in the past but what happened when these people died,” Roberts said.
The six bodies were found Saturday at about 6:30 p.m., a day after police had visited the home to check on the family, Roberts said.

I have been following this sad Case from the Beginning.
What is this World coming to, I wonder and I am speechless.
It is bad enough the Children’s Mother was murdered but
5 innocent Children, the youngest 11 month old.
The only thing I just can’t understand why did the Mother bring 5 Children into such an abusive Relationship. The Abuse as reported started back in 2000. There were domestic Violence Reports made in that Household, Violence against the Mother and 3 of the Children.
I understand after the last Beating the Mother received from her Husband she pleaded with the Police to give her Husband a second Chance. So sad that the
Children 5 of them had to pay for that second Chance their Mother gave her Husband, their Dad.
The Mother I know is also a Victim of a violent Crime
but 5 Children weren’t given a Choice and also had to pay the ultimate Price and didn’t even have a Chance to grow up, that in my Mind is just so wrong!
It just makes me sick that no one protected those Children!
