KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Police are investigating an apparent murder suicide in*which*a man shot his estranged wife in a car before shooting himself, while the couple’s three young sons sat in the back seat. On Tuesday, police found 24-year-old Alyshia Alexander and 25-year-old Jedidiah Alexander dead from gunshot wounds in what appeared to be a murder-suicide as they sat in the front seat of a car. In the back seat, covered in blood and covering their ears, they found the couple’s three young children. Jedidiah and Alyshia got married in 2009, but the*relationship*was troubled and*plagued*with domestic abuse according to relatives and court records. The couple eventually separated, but Alyshia continued to let Jedediah see his boys. That Tuesday, she had driven to Jedidiah’s*mother’s house to let the boys visit their father. The three boys, 3-year-old Jedidiah, 2-year-old Jerimiah, and 1-year-old Jaedin, were not physically harmed and our currently staying with their maternal grandmother. “They think that they’re just spending some time at Nana’s house. But eventually I’m going to have to deal with when they ask, ‘Where’s Mommy?’ I’m going to have to tell them,” Bridget Mitchell*said. She’s also asking for anyone in a similar situation to give her some advice or encouragement. “I would love to know how some other families have dealt with this,” she said. “Just some encouraging words on what people found that work because I have no clue.”
