My third year in San Diego an agent I was in escrow with was murdered by her husband on the day their divorce was finalized. There are more metal detectors in Family Court than Criminal Court.

Oh, I feel for those precious children of hers - now, they will have neither parent. SO incredibly sad. 

Sadly, watching the interview with the husband, I had a suspicion it might be him as well. Again, so sad.

That is an awful story......

Deepest sympathy to the family........

Oh geez... I had not heard that. How awful... not a great piece of news with which to start my Sunday! And so horrible for her family.

Sorry to hear this news, I was hoping for a happy ending to this.

Yes, I read the news earlier.  Very sad.  

This is horrible.  I will be praying for Crystal's entire family and for those who were close to her.  This is a tragedy. 

how sad no I have not heard, of course there have been statistics that usually the nearest people are always the prime suspects....

Just awful news and sad for the family.  

John Bear - no surprises here - nearest people are usually the prime suspects as Endre Barath, Jr. mentioned. Sad but true most of the times.

I was hoping and praying for a more positive outcome.  Glad that she was not targeted as a real estate agent; however, this is still very sad to hear and that it was her husband.  As many have pointed out, its unfortunate that her children will have lost both parents. 

Somehow I missed this story. 

Statistically speaking, this is not surprising. Still sad that life would end that way for anyone.

Very, very sad.

Sad.

Yikes! 

I did not hear about this until now.  

very sad.... you never know!!

How tragic for those children, who have now lost both parents.  I hope there are family members who are able to care for them. 

This is so sad.  I can't even begin to express my feelings about the loss for the family, especially her children.  

Sad, but not surprising...

Eve

I had not heard that. Wow, what a sad story.

Prayers being sent......

Sorry to hear the news.

Fixer upper? Thank god my wife was the same way. What's that saying-Its always the husband? So sorry to hear of this...

Haven't heard about this.

Sad no matter who did the deed

Oh how sad, and thought I was paying attention, as with the hurricane, this was a murder of opportunity.    SAD!  

This is so sad and pointless for one person to play GOD and take another's life.

did not hear that

What a terrible tragedy. In any circumstance.

Thanks for sharing this story.

I can't say anything that hasn't already been said here. I really wish things had turned out differently, at least for her...maybe not him.

I read that she had been staying with her ex-husband at his home while hers was being renovated.

Tragic

very sad situation

I did and that it was her jusband, not sure if it was better news, it was not a stranger but horrible news it happened at all.

John Bear This is so sad.

So sad! Not much more can be said!
