Alabama Pastor Murders Wife, Wounds Daughter, But Fails To Stab Himself To Death

A Pastor? Are you kidding me? A Pastor…?

GARDENDALE | A prominent Alabama pastor fatally shot his wife and wounded their 18-year-old daughter in their church-owned home before grabbing a kitchen knife and trying to stab himself to death, police said Friday.

The Rev. Terry Greer, 54, is being charged with murder in the slaying of 52-year-old Lisa Greer and attempted murder in the wounding of Suzanna Greer, a University of South Alabama student, according to police in Gardendale, a suburb about 10 miles north of Birmingham.

Greer is senior pastor at Gardendale-Mount Vernon United Methodist Church near Birmingham. Prominent in Methodist circles in the area, he leads a church with an average Sunday attendance of about 670.

After Greer opened fire on his wife and daughter Thursday, the teenager grabbed the gun and ran to a neighbor’s house to alert authorities, police said.

The minister then grabbed a kitchen knife and went to a bathroom, where he repeatedly stabbed himself in his chest and neck, police said. Responding officers stopped Greer and took him into custody.

I'm just tired of the lies and nonsense coming from the GOP, so this is my little contribution to combat the nonsense!
