"Las Vegas Law Office Shooting: Tensions, Threats, and Tragic Consequences"

Attorney Joe Houston II shot and killed his ex-daughter-in-law and her husband during a child custody hearing in a Las Vegas law office before dying by suicide. Tension had been building for years in the family court system, and emails revealed that Houston had requested his ex-daughter-in-law not be present at the deposition just days before the shooting. The custody battle involved allegations of substance abuse and abusive behavior, and concerns about safety were expressed before the tragic incident.
