Father kills his 2 young kids on Father’s Day before hanging himself

A 40-year-old father is believed to have murdered his young son and daughter then hanged himself on Father’s Day during a custody battle with his estranged wife.

Deputies from the Sonoma County Sheriff’s Department arrived at the Santa Rosa, California, home of Alvaro Camara, 40, on Monday morning to a horrifying scene as they responded to a welfare check.

He was supposed to drop his six-year-old daughter and 18-month-old son off at their mother’s house Sunday night, but never showed up.

 The estranged wife and mother of the two deceased children released a statement Tuesday ‘I sit… swaddled in my daughter’s blanket and drinking tea from a cup that reads ‘I love you mom’, fighting back the tears and struggling to make sense of this horrific situation’
