This certainly isn't the first story of this kind, and it probably won't be the last.
A follow-up article appears here, explaining that the parents apparently believed in some sort of impending apocalypse. The wife had been communicating with Dan Lafferty who, along with his brother Ron, murdered their sister-in-law and her fifteen-month-old child, stating that they had received a "revelation from God."
These sort of scenarios are always sad. It's frightening how deeply indoctrinated people can become when they hold extremist religious beliefs.
