A Utah man fatally shot his five children, his mother-in-law and his wife and then killed himself two weeks after the woman had filed for divorce, according to authorities and public records. Police also revealed during a Thursday news conference that officers investigated the 42-year-old man and his family a “couple of years prior,” suggesting possible earlier problems inside the household. Enoch Police Chief Jackson Ames did not elaborate. Investigators were aware of the divorce petition but didn’t know if it was the motivation behind the killings, Mayor Geoffrey Chesnut said. City Manager Rob Dotson said people are “feeling loss, they’re feeling pain and they have a lot of questions.” Community members gathered Thursday evening to mourn and sing hymns in a private vigil at a church up the street from the home where the victims were found the previous day. Officials said they believe Michael Haight killed his wife, 40-year-old Tausha Haight; his mother-in-law; and the couple’s five children. Each appeared to have gunshot wounds. The three girls and two boys ranged in age from 4 to 17 and included 7-year-old twins, authorities said. Tausha Haight’s mother, 78-year-old Gail Earl, was said to have been staying with the family to help during a difficult time. Court records show that Tausha Haight filed for divorce Dec. 21. Her lawyer said Thursday that Haight had been served with the papers Dec. 27. The reasons for the divorce were unknown, in part because Utah law keeps details of divorce proceedings sealed from the public. Tausha Haight and other members of the family were seen the night before the killings at a church group for young women, Chesnut said. Police were dispatched to the family’s home Wednesday afternoon for a welfare check after someone reported that she had missed an appointment earlier in the week, city officials said. Family mass killings have become a disturbingly common tragedy across the country. In 2022 there were 17 of them, according to a database compiled by USA Today, The Associated Press and Northeastern University. Ten were murder-suicides, and 14 were shootings. The database defines a mass killing as four or more people slain, not including the assailant. James Park, who represented Tausha Haight in the divorce case, said she had not expressed any fear that her husband would physically hurt her. Park declined to elaborate, citing the investigation into the killings. He said he met with Tausha Haight only twice, mostly recently on Tuesday, and she “was an incredibly nice lady.” The White House said in a statement that President Joe Biden and first lady Jill Biden were mourning with the Enoch community. It called for further steps to reduce gun violence, now the leading cause of death for children in the U.S. The home where the victims were found was decorated with Christmas lights and located in a neighborhood of newly built single-family houses on a ridge overlooking Enoch. It has a view of houses with snow-covered roofs and mountains in the distance. Half the surrounding block was cordoned off by police tape. The Cedar City area, historically agricultural, is being transformed by new subdivisions. Cattle and sheep line the highway at the edge of town, along with signs that advertise “Custom New Homes” and recreation in southern Utah’s famous national parks. Sharon Huntsman of Cedar City came to the neighborhood with a bouquet of white flowers Thursday morning. She said the deaths had deeply rattled Iron County and cried as she propped up the bouquet in the snow at a makeshift memorial where neighbors left stuffed animals and flowers. “It’s just one big community,” she said. “We all have one heavenly father.” Archives from a local newspaper capture moments in Michael Haight’s life beginning with a picture of him laughing as a baby in an announcement marking his first birthday. He was in the Boy Scouts and went on a church mission in Brazil. In 2003, Haight married Tausha Earl at a church temple. She was from Overton, Nevada, about two hours south of Cedar City, where he grew up. As an adult, Haight worked as an insurance agent. Tausha Haight’s Facebook page showed pictures of the family looking happy in picturesque settings of Utah, and in front of a large statue of Jesus. Jennie Earl, who is Tausha’s sister-in-law and a member of the Utah State Board of Education, posted a photo on Facebook of Tausha and her children and wrote about the “stiff competition” to be their favorite aunt. “I pray that Christ’s love will mend our broken hearts and fill us with forgiveness and peace,” Earl wrote. She declined to comment when reached by The Associated Press. Community members who gathered at Enoch City Hall to listen to Thursday’s news conference said it was wrenching to have to tell their own children that their peers may not be at school the next day. “We told them last night,” said city councilman Richard Jensen, a father of eight. “We gathered them around for a family prayer type of thing. We told them a family in town, everyone had been killed and when they show up to school tomorrow it’s possible kids will be missing.“ The killings rocked the small town of Enoch in southern Utah about halfway between Salt Lake City and Las Vegas. It’s in one of the fastest-growing areas of the country, and communities of new homes on big lots are made up primarily of large families that belong, like most in Utah, to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, known widely as the Mormon church. Many residents work and do business in nearby Cedar City, a city of about 35,000 that serves as a commercial hub for Enoch, which doesn’t have its own downtown. The deceased were members of the faith and well known in town. Many residents served in church alongside members of the slain family or went to school with the children, city officials said. “This is a tremendous blow to many families who have spent many nights with these individuals who are now gone,” Chesnut said.

Actress Shabnam Faria has shared the reasons behind her divorce with Harunur Rashid Opu in social media recently. However, controversies grew centering that Facebook post where Shabnam Faria wanted to present society’s attitude towards a woman when she gets divorced. This actress told UNB, “Sharing my story wasn’t something so easy for me. I did not complain about any person in any way in that post. The whole complaint was towards the attitude of our society. Many women would not have to sacrifice their lives in this way if they did not consider the divorce in such a dirty way!” Also read: Evaly scam: Mithila, Faria get anticipatory bail “I have tried my best to show respect to the person who was in my life before divorce, although I've had so much rage against that person. I'm sure he has the same feeling. I also believe he has tried to show the highest respect,” said Faria. About being tortured by husband, Faria said, “My point was that the day I had my finger fractured, I realized this marriage had already become toxic. But I've been watering a dead tree for almost two and a half years of life just thinking ‘what will people say’!” “Now, of course, breaking my finger is true, but not that he did it on purpose. At one stage of the rage were blows and then my finger got fractured. So why is he now denying? What do you do if there is a sudden public reaction?” “As so many talks about the post have been raised, it's hard enough to prove my complaint. But there is still a chance to find out the CCTV footage of the hospital or the bills,” she added. However, she wants to end this here for the sake of everyone’s honour.

This is why we decided to separate.” “This time I hope everyone has got answers to all their questions. We've both come a long way in our lives,” said Faria. She shared a post from her official Facebook page that she used to be tortured by her ex-husband and promoted the film ‘Debi’ with her fractured finger.

He is the fourth richest actor with a net worth of USD 180 million. Aamir made his debut as a child artiste in his uncle Nasir Hussain's blockbuster film Yaadon Ki Baaraat in 1973.

Bill and Melinda Gates said Monday that they are divorcing but would keep working together at the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, one of the largest charitable foundations in the world. In identical tweets, the Microsoft co-founder and his wife said they had made the decision to end their marriage of 27 years. “We have raised three incredible children and built a foundation that works all over the world to enable all people to lead healthy, productive lives,” they said in a statement. “We ask for space and privacy for our family as we begin to navigate this new life.” Bill Gates was formerly the world’s richest person and his fortune is estimated at well over $100 billion. How the couple end up settling their estate and any impact on the foundation will be closely watched, especially after another high-profile Seattle-area billionaire couple recently ended their marriage. Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos and MacKenzie Bezos finalized their divorce in 2019. MacKenzie Scott has since remarried and now focuses on her own philanthropy after receiving a 4% stake in Amazon, worth more than $36 billion. The Gateses were married in 1994 in Hawaii. They met after she began working at Microsoft as a product manager in 1987. In her 2019 memoir, “The Moment of Lift,” Melinda Gates wrote about her childhood, life and private struggles as the wife of a public icon and stay-at-home mom with three kids. She won Bill Gates’ heart after meeting at a work dinner, sharing a mutual love of puzzles and beating him at a math game. She also detailed the ways they navigated imbalances in their marriage and parenting journey and noted how working together at the foundation made their relationship better. “Bill and I are equal partners,” Melinda Gates said in a 2019 interview with The Associated Press. “Men and women should be equal at work.” The Seattle-based Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation is the most influential private foundation in the world, with an endowment worth nearly $50 billion. It has focused on global health and development and U.S. education issues since incorporating in 2000. While both are global figures, Melinda Gates has increasingly built her profile as a champion of women and girls. The former tech business executive launched her private Pivotal Ventures investment and incubation company in 2015 and recently partnered with Scott for a newly announced equity challenge. David Callahan, founder of the Insider Philanthropy website and author of “The Givers: Wealth, Power, and Philanthropy in a New Gilded Age” says it’s too early to know how the divorce will affect the Gates foundation and the wider philanthropic community. Although the couple say they will continue to work together at their foundation, Callahan suggests Melinda Gates could still pursue her own philanthropic work. “You can imagine two separate tracks where they’re both working together at the foundation, and each is pursuing their own independent philanthropy outside the foundation,” Callahan said. He said the possibility of Melinda Gates opening another philanthropic foundation would have a dramatic impact. “Nobody knows what the terms are of their divorce agreement. But if Melinda Gates ends up with just some portion of that wealth and turns to creating her own foundation, it would be among one of the biggest foundations probably in America,” Callahan said. As the public face of the foundation’s COVID-19 grants and advocacy work, Bill Gates has come under fire for being a staunch supporter of intellectual property rights for vaccine makers. While the tech icon says protecting the shots’ recipes will ensure incentives for research and development, critics claim that mentality hampers supply in favor of drug company profits. Last year, Bill Gates said he was stepping down from Microsoft’s board to focus on philanthropy. He was Microsoft’s CEO until 2000 and since then has gradually scaled back his involvement in the company he started with Paul Allen in 1975. He transitioned out of a day-to-day role in Microsoft in 2008 and served as chairman of the board until 2014.

The High Court (HC) on Tuesday issued a rule seeking explanation as to why marriages and divorces should not be registered digitally and available online. The HC also asked why necessary steps, including establishment of a centralised website, a sort pf electronic register,won’t be taken in this regard. The bench of Justice Md Mozibur Rahman Mia and Justice Md Kamrul Hossain Molla issued the rule after hearing a writ petition filed in the form of public interest litigation. Ex-husband of Tamima Sultana, who recently wed cricketer Nasir Hossain, and three others including an organization filed the writ petition on March 4. Advocate Ishrat Hasan stood for the writ petitioner while Deputy Attorney General Nowroz Md Rasel Chowdhury represented the state. Also read: PBI asked to probe case against cricketer Nasir, his wife The writ said incidents of frequent fraudulence occurred as matrimony and divorce are not registered digitally, increasing number of marriage-related offences. Digitalization is essential to avoid the marriage-related crimes, it said. Meanwhile, Tamima Sultana’s former husband filed the petition as Tamima allegedly got married to cricketer Nasir without divorcing her husband Rakib Hasan. On February 24, a Dhaka court directed the Police Bureau of Investigation (PBI) to investigate a case filed against Nasir and his wife. According to the case statement, Tamima got married to Rakib Hasan on February 26, 2011 and they have an eight year old daughter. Tamima, a cabin crew of Saudia Airlines, had been staying in Saudi Arabia due to Covid-19 situation since March, 2020. During this time, she contacted her family through mobile phone and social media. Tamima got married with the cricketer on February 14 while photographs of their marriage went viral on social media which drew the attention of Rakib Hasan. He then proceeded to reveal Tamima never divorced him, which put a cloud over the legal status of her union with Nasir. For Tamima's, or anyone else's for that matter, second marriage to be legal, the first has to be legally annulled. Tamima insists she divorced Rakib, and produced a document before the media in this connection. But the concerned municipal office, where the divore document is also supposed to be sent, has denied receiving a copy.
