美佛羅裏達女子槍殺兒子後自殺 攝像機記錄全程(圖) 英國《每日郵報》
據報道，美國佛羅裏達州卡塞伯利7日發生一起槍擊事件，一名婦女在打死兒子後開槍自殺。
據報道，作案兇手名叫瑪麗-摩爾（Marie Moore），現年44歲。當天，瑪麗-摩爾帶領兒子米切爾前往卡塞伯利Shoot Straight射擊訓練場。米切爾還以爲他們兩人是要在下午練習槍法。在他集中精力準備射擊時，身在他背後的母親瑪麗舉起一把左輪手槍，瞄準兒子的頭部開槍。米切爾當場倒在地闆上身亡。随後，瑪麗也飲彈自殺。
瑪麗是一位反基督教人士，她在遺書中寫到：“我很抱歉。我必須要将兒子送入天堂，将我送入地獄。另外，她還在一份錄音中說：“上帝告訴我，我擁有一把槍，可以做到一切。我必須要死，要進入地獄，這樣世間才會可以平靜一千年。”在案發前，瑪麗已同丈夫離婚，但有一位男友。瑪麗在錄音中稱她男友是一位“國王”，但她自己是一位“失敗的王後”。
警方在一份報告中透露，瑪麗-摩爾确有精神病史。瑪麗也在錄音中也表示，她個人在精神病醫院受到很多限制，在精神上遭受到“痛苦和折磨”。
據悉，瑪麗曾多次有明顯的自殺傾向。7年前，她在Shoot Straight射擊訓練場自殺未遂。此後，她被限制進入該訓練場。目前，警方還尚不清楚她是如何在此處租到槍支。
Marie Moore left notes, audio tapes apologizing for murder-suicide
'I had to send my son to heaven and myself to Hell.'
Notes left behind by a woman who shot her son Sunday and then took her own life leave no doubt that her actions were planned in advance.
"I'm so sorry," Marie Moore wrote in one note. "I had to send my son to heaven and myself to Hell."
All three notes were written to "King," and that note and one other were signed "Failed Queen."
Family members found the notes and audio tapes late Monday and turned them over to police, Casselberry deputy police Chief Bill McNeil said.
McNeil said investigators still have not determined while the woman killed her 20-year-old son, Mitchell, at the Shoot Straight range in Casselberry and then shot herself, but in two of the notes Marie Moore, 44, wrote: "I had to save my son."
She apologized for what she did before she did it, McNeil said.
The horrific shooting was captured by security video at the gun range.
Moore explains in the notes that she signed over the title to her truck, left the keys in it and also left behind $7,900 cash and a check.
"I'm sorry King thats all thats left," she wrote in one note. She went on to write: "Save yourself you go to heaven with Mitch I love you forever & ever."
Mitchell Moore died at the scene and his mother died a short time later at Florida Hospital Altamonte.
On audio recordings left for her family, police and gun range owners, Moore apologized for what she had done, but said God commanded her to do it. She said God made her the 'Antichrist,' and that she must die to save her boyfriend, son and the world from violence, and her mother, father and brother from hell.
"You have a gun, you can do it," she said God told her while she was in a mental hospital. "I have to die and go to hell so there can be a thousand years peace on Earth."
Her fate made no sense to Moore.
"I don't know how all this happened. It's not in the Bible," she adds later. "No forgiveness for me. That's not in the Bible. The Antichrist being a woman."
"At one point in the video you can see Mitchell Moore firing his pistol down range," Casselberry officer Jeffrey Shumway wrote in his incident report. "Marie Moore walked up behind Mitchell Moore and pointed a revolver at the back of his head and fired a single shot. The act appeared to be deliberate.
"Mitchell Moore immediately went down from the shot," Shumway wrote. "Marie Moore then placed the pistol in her mouth and fired a single shot."
The murder weapon was a gun rented from the shooting range.
There are restrictions about gun ownership in some cases of mental incompetence, but that would not stop a person from renting a gun at a shooting range, McNeil said.
