I was just wondering if anyone else has been following this story about this awful tragedy. Family Slain

I feel sort of awful saying this, but I can't help but wonder if the husband/father was somehow involved. He was beaten, but not horribly. He was supposedly left bound in the basement, but managed to escape the smoke, which killed his two children.

Wouldn't the thieves be better off killing the husband, who poses the greatest threat, and having the best chance of fighting back? Whenever one of a group or family survives, and with relatively less injuries than everyone else, I tend to be a bit suspicious as to their level of involvement. He also gave a 20 minute eulogy at their memorial service today without wavering, according to the Hartford Courant. He's already out of the hospital???
