Recommended Posts

CB Phillip Adams played in the NFL from 2010-15

Allegedly murdered his doctor, and the doctor's wife, the doctor's 2 young grandchildren, and an adult worker on the doctor's estate.

Then drove to his parents, and died from an apparent self-inflicted gunshot.

"ROCK HILL, S.C. (AP) — Former NFL player Phillip Adams fatally shot five people including a prominent doctor, his wife and their two grandchildren before later killing himself, authorities said Thursday.

York County Sheriff Kevin Tolson told a news conference that investigators had not yet determined a motive in the mass shooting Wednesday.

“There’s nothing right now that makes sense to any of us,” Tolson told a news conference.

Dr. Robert Lesslie, 70, and his wife, Barbara, 69, were pronounced dead at the scene Wednesday along with grandchildren Adah Lesslie, 9, and Noah Lesslie, 5, the York County coroner’s office said.

A man who had been working at the Lesslie home, James Lewis, 38, from Gaston, was found shot to death outside, and a sixth person, who was not identified, was hospitalized with “serious gunshot wounds,” authorities said."

Wow, every single victim, even non-family members working at the home, had something in common.  What a coincidence that the only people besides Adams himself that were killed had this identity.  He couldn't even be bothered to spare children or laborers.
