Happy New Year


Police said Merhige was taking numerous medications, including Ativan, used to treat anxiety disorders.

Court documents showed Merhige and his siblings had a troubled history. Nearly a decade ago, Merhige sought protection from law enforcement after he accused his sister of trying to kill him, according to records obtained by The Miami Herald. He dropped the request a few weeks later.
In 2006, Carla Merhige, requested a restraining order against her brother saying he threatened to kill her and himself, the newspaper reported. She also withdrew her request a few weeks later.


Yet he had no problem buying guns in the days before he shot and killed 4 members of his family.
