Police: Man shot wife, 2 children before killing himself :: 06/16/2011
DEXTER, Maine - A Harmony man who was upset that he had not been allowed to attend his son's eighth-grade graduation later this week shot and killed his estranged wife and their two children Monday before committing suicide, Maine State Police said.
The bodies of Steven Lake, 37, Amy Lake, 38, and their children Coty, 13, and Monica, 12, were found in the living room of the first floor of a house at 173 Shore Road, according to Maj. Gary Wright of the state police. It appeared all had died from shotgun wounds, he said.
"It was clearly a domestic violence homicide," Wright said.
The Lakes had been feuding for the past year and were in the process of getting a divorce. Steven Lake was scheduled to be tried in Piscataquis County Superior Court in July on four charges, including criminal threatening with a dangerous weapon and domestic violence criminal threatening. Police said he threatened his wife on June 14, 2010, in Wellington. As part of his bail conditions, Lake was ordered not to have any contact with Amy Lake.
