BROKEN ARROW, OKLAHOMA: An Oklahoma couple allegedly killed their six children before taking their own lives in a murder-suicide incident last week. A former neighbor of the couple, Shawn Kucera, said that he used to live across the street from the Broken Arrow, Oklahoma home where Brian Nelson, 34, and Brittney Nelson, 32, killed their family. When the news of murder-suicide on Hickory Avenue broke, Kucera claims his thoughts "immediately… went to one particular neighbor who lived across the street from me."
He added that he found the family's father to be noticeably controlling and the family mostly kept to themselves but there was a handful of interactions with Brian that seemed weird to him. "As I was crossing the street, his wife basically retreated to the other side of the yard behind the car, and eventually made her way into the house, like she didn't want to engage in a conversation," Kucera told KOKI-TV. "It, to me, felt like she had been conditioned to not interact with people." "As I got to know the family a little bit, he just seemed really controlling," Kucera said.
