A Pennsylvania father of three, bitter over the death of his newborn daughter years earlier, walked into a one-room Amish schoolhouse and held 10 girls hostage. As police arrived, the heavily armed Charles Roberts IV shot eight of the girls, killing five, before shooting himself.
The execution-style murders shook the surrounding community — and brought an amazing response from the victims' families.
