Josh Powell Left Voice Mail

When you listen to Josh Powell’s voice, he is very emotional, yet resolved on what he is going to do–chillingly so. He was truly a tortured soul without question.   While it goes without stating, he was deeply disturbed.

The fact that Josh took an axe to his children is mortifying beyond words.  Did he do it because he was afraid they would try to escape out of the house if he set it on fire?  Or did he do it because he loathed them for spilling his secrets?  I tend to believe it was the latter.  

The only lesson we can take from this is that when you see a person so out of touch with reality, and so depressed, as Josh clearly was–he was despondent –anything is possible.
