So sad. Man Kills Girlfriend Then Himself In Murder Suicide How tragic that she was shot by the man who was supposed to love and cherish her. According to KMBC: Friends and loved ones of a North Kansas City couple killed in a murder-suicide remember their loved ones. Jason Crabtree, 33, was a second-grade teacher at Gracemor Elementary School. A representative from the district said he was loved and admired by students and staff alike. Police said Crabtree shot his girlfriend, Jamie Newkirk, 27, before taking his own life. Their bodies were found in a crashed SUV near College Boulevard and Mastin Avenue in Overland Park, Kan., early Sunday. Newkirk was a manager at Nordstrom at Oak Park Mall and attended college at Kansas State with dreams of a career in fashion. Overland Park police said they’re still trying to sort out what may have led Crabtree to take the actions he did. “He did seem, you know, very well alert to the children, you know, and paid attention to their needs and everything that was going on,” said Chris Toner, a parent of a student at Gracemor Elementary School. “For things to get to that point, somebody, somewhere in his life must have known that something was wrong.” Gracemor Elementary is on spring break this week. Counselors will be available for students and staff when the school reopens on Monday. What kind of issues could make a man go to such extreme measures?!?! Shutterstock
