A California man who apparently made religious posts on Facebook has been charged with killing his four young children and mother-in-law, prosecutors said. Germarcus Lamar David, 29, is facing five counts of murder and three counts of assault on a child causing death.
The Los Angeles County Coroner's office identified the deceased as: Ericka England, 51; Namyiah David, 11; Germarcus David Jr., 7; Kaden David, 2; and Noah David, 19 months.
What appeared on David's Facebook page contained lots of religious imagery and posts.
"The love I give will overflow from one heart to the next as a gift that keeps giving. I will be one of the reasons that others believe in the true goodness of this world," David posted on Oct. 27, adding "THAT is what I want my legacy to be. THAT is what I want my children to grow up seeing."

(82,849 posts)Isaiah, Ezekiel, Matthew, all have passages to the effect of those who draw near God with their words, professing pious thoughts, but their hearts are far from anything holy. It appears that David's legacy is going to be quite different from what he espoused, and his children aren't going to grow up at all.
