Man Drowns His Daughter, Kills His Dogs and Then Hangs Self in Their Home... His Reason Will Shock You

 

 

A man identified as Darren Flux-Edmonds has committed a most heinous sacrilege.

 

The man is said to have drowned his six-year-old daughter and placed her body next to the pet dogs he also killed before hanging himself to punish his wife for leaving.

 

According to Daily Mail, Keziah Flux-Edmonds was killed by her father Darren, 44, who drowned her in the bathtub of the family home before laying her body in the master bedroom. Keziah's lifeless body was found with her arms wrapped around her beloved pets Arnie and Maximus.

 

The father-of-one also killed the family's two terrier dogs. Both the dogs were soaking wet and it is believed Flux-Edmonds drowned them too.

 

Flux-Edmonds, who suffered from depression, was looking after Keziah while her mother Nikki Flux-Edmonds was at work for an hour. He sent her a chilling text 25 minutes after she left the house.

 

The inquest heard the long message began with 'Congratulations' and ended with: 'You have left me with nothing, I'll leave you with only memories.'

 

It also emerged today that Flux-Edmonds had seen a therapist over his mental health, and revealed in sessions how he had nightmares about murdering his wife and daughter.

 

 

Mrs Flux-Edmonds had separated from her husband of 12 years and he was living with his mother June Flux at her home in April this year.

 

Isle of Wight Coroners Court today heard Flux-Edmonds regularly saw his daughter and was looking after her at her mother's home when he killed her and then himself.

 

Mrs Flux-Edmonds, a financial service administrator, had been on her way to see a customer when she pulled her car over and read the text message.

 

She immediately called police and made her way to her home in East Cowes, Isle of Wight.

 

The inquest heard police officers found Flux-Edmonds had hung himself. They then discovered Keziah lying in bed with her arms around the family's two pet dogs.

 

Keziah was rushed to hospital and despite the efforts of officers and paramedics, she died later that day on June 1, 2016.

 

Flux-Edmonds was taking anti-depressant medicine, and had taken part in three sessions in cognitive behavioural therapy before the tragedy.

 

The inquest heard during one of his sessions, Flux-Edmonds said he had nightmares about murdering his wife and daughter.

 

Investigation is ongoing.
