Video: Escaped “spam king” Edward Davidson kills family and self
Convicted spammer Edward Davidson — who had been sent to federal prison for violating the CAN SPAM Act after making millions by sending unsolicited commercial emails — escaped from his federal prison camp, met up with his family, then went on a deadly rampage against them at their former home.
News reports say that Edward Davidson lured his family into his trap by telling them he wanted to say goodbye before he turned himself into authorities after the prison escape.
Edward Davidson’s 16-year-old daughter and 8-month-old child survived the brutal attack, while Edward Davidson, his wife and 3-year-old daughter did not.

What a moron.
Why bother to escape from prison, then murder your family and kill yourself?
Really, all he had to do was pay a fine and do his time in a minimum security prison.
Guess he couldn’t handle it. It’s a terrible shame he had to take out his family in his final blaze of idiocy.
Hi Jonathan,
I agree with you. There’s was something definitely wrong with the guy. I hope his daughter is able to come through this without too many emotional scars.
