Victims of dad's shotgun

International News Photos (New York, N.Y.) · December 7, 1949

Here are the three children of Mr. and Mrs. John S. Conner who were shot to death by their father today in their Alexandria home. They are (L. to R.) Cecelia, 4, Michael, 8, and Stephanie, 11. Neighbors called police when Mrs. Conner ran screaming from their home. Conner at first said he didn't know what made him do it. Later he said he planned to wipe out the entire family and commit suicide, but lost his nerve.
