Mother takes the life of infant daughter before turning gun on herself

Holidays are coming and one Plantation family is struck by murder-suicide. On Nov. 20, a mother shot and killed her infant daughter, then shoots herself in front of the girl's grandparents home.

According to Plantation Police, Kristen Lubus, 22, and her 13-month-old daughter, Jaidyn were found dead from gunshot wounds on the 300 block of Jacaranda Drive in Plantation. Police found a suicide note, however, have not released any details.

Detective Robert Rettig, Plantation Police spokesman said that Lubus appeared to have been depressed.

Autopsiies have confirmed the deaths. Family declined for comment.

A family now has no holidays to enjoy with Lubus and the infant. I am wondering what would of happened if Lubus would have asked for help. Not only asking for help, but why the infant? What did she do to her? I don't know whether i should feel sad for the mother or be angry with her for doing what she did. If anyone knows anyone who seems depressed, please get help. This can happen to anyone.

it was a hard holiday for everyone, i was at the babys grandparents house when it happened..i held jaidyn the night before, i read the letter kristen wrote, it was addressed to her daughter for when she got older...but she wasnt given the chance to grow up. its still chilling and heartbreaking, EVERY day. RIP Jaidyn Kayla Arcari you are so very missed.
