Murder-Suicide: Texas Dad Murdered Twin Daughters, Heaven & Nevaeh Minutes After Their Mother Left The Home

An armed Texas father allegedly barricaded himself in his home late last week and took his own life after shooting and killing his twin daughters.

Larry Thompson was identified as the suspect in the slayings after the girls’ mother reported hearing a gunshot shortly after leaving the residence where the shooting occurred, the Navarro County Sheriff’s Office confirmed in a press release. Family members, including the girls’ mother April Sadler, identified the victims as Heaven Sadler and Nevaeh Sadler, both just 12 years old, they told NBC Dallas-Forth Worth.

The NBCDFW report said that the victims’ mother had a dispute with Thompson prior to the killings and that he had threatened to commit violence against anyone who tried to take his kids away from him. The woman reportedly left home that day with children other than the twins. The deadly violence allegedly took place after the woman returned to the home later on.

The suspect opened fire just minutes after the girls’ mother left the residence the second time, according to the sheriff’s office. After hearing an apparent gunshot, the woman called authorities to the scene. The ensuing SWAT operation and hostage situation, which reportedly involved the use of a tactical robot to make sure the scene was cleared for entry by law enforcement, ended with the discovery of three bodies in the home.

April Sadler reportedly told NBCDFW that she loves and misses her babies and that she “worried every day” about their safety.

I swear Navaeh is a cursed name. There has to to at least half a dozen murdered Navaehs mentioned on this website.

Agree-they should put out public service announcements warning mothers to be.

I really want to know why the other took other children from the home and left the twin girls with him.

That decision will probably haunt her for the rest of her life

Heaven and Nevaeh are cursed names. They should gather all of them up and put them in a 24/7 group home type situation, with a school attached, to avoid their likely faiths. With counselors, house moms, pets, and outings. I'll be 40 in March. I haven't met a Heaven or a Nevaeh since fifth grade. This unfortunate curse is why.
