Father of Young Girls Killed at Sacramento Church Identified as Shooter: 'Unspeakable Tragedy' Sourc

[ShazzieB]

The man who shot and killed his three children, their chaperone, and himself at a Sacramento, Calif. church on Monday has been identified.

The Sacramento County Coroner's Office identified David Mora, 39, as the father and shooter. Local authorities say Mora fatally shot his three daughters — Samia, 13, Samantha, 10, and Samarah, 9 — and their chaperone, Nathaniel Kong, 59, during a supervised visit with his kids.

Mora had been living at the church and was required to have supervised visits with his children due to a restraining order by his estranged girlfriend, according to Sgt. Rod Grassmann.

"It is unfathomable that you could shoot a child, kill the child, moreso that it would be your own child. The motive will be certainly under investigation," Grassmann told reporters, per ABC 10. "I would have to think that who could do that would only be somebody who hates their ex more than they loved their children."
