FORT WAYNE, Indiana (AP) -- A man accused of killing his family told police he beat and strangled his wife and killed their three young daughters after the couple argued about household chores, according to court documents.

Police found Simon Rios, 33, on the front porch of his home after getting a suicide call early Tuesday. Inside, they discovered blood in the living room and Rios' wife and their three children dead in a bedroom.

Rios pleaded not guilty Wednesday to four preliminary counts of murder and two counts of moving a body. He was jailed without bond.

Autopsies showed the girls -- ages 10, 4 and 20 months -- had all been strangled. Their mother, identified as Ana L. Casas, died of a blow to the head and strangulation, the coroner said.

Neighbor Nancy Gater said Simon Rios worked at a factory but had lost his job this year.

Michael Guzman, who described Rios as a friend, said he had never heard Rios raise his voice to his children or speak ill of his wife.

"Everybody who knows him loves the guy," he said

He'll probably pleed insanity and and never spend a minute in jail, but jail wouldn't even be the proper place to put him. He needs to go straight to hell, do not pass go, do not collect 200 dollars.

Ah life in the new America. No one bothers to see or mention the bolded line above.

Thank you Bush, Rush, Hannity, Fox and everyone that supports them. :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
:roll:

wtf not guilty?

Why would he plead guilty? Indiana has the death penalty. Pleading guilty at his initial appearance, with no concessions from the prosecutor, would be suicide. He is just keeping his options open for either taking a plea agreement (presumably to life without parole) or pleading not guilty by reason of insanity.

This is a tremendously sad case. This guy obviously just snapped. He will never, ever walk the streets as a free man (and shouldn't IMO), whether he ends up in a prison or a mental institution.

Just when I though you had reached the limits of your blithering idiocy, you pull this and prove to me that there are no limits...
 
I bet neighbors report they could actually hear the exact sound made when this guy snapped.

Seems pretty natural for you.

IMO if those factory workers cant find a job after losing theirs, they should just committ suicide and let the wife get a job as a secretary to support the kids.
