Joseph Kernizan, Fugitive Wanted in Murders of Ex-Wife Tracy Bennett and Married Lover Wayne Hamilton, Commits Suicide

Let us be clear on this if not on anything else: All three
deceased were very shady people. Though none of them deserved to die as a
result of this sordid, disgusting, and truly tragic situation, no one here can
say that they have all the details and that any of the deceased did not greatly
contribute to this situation.

None of the parties involved were innocent if you ask me.
Ms. Bennett was probably the person who knew Country the most yet she still
tested him not for one second thinking about her 3 children’s well being if he
delivered on any of his promises. As a woman I put my child first.

We all can sit here behind our
computers and play judge, jury and executioner to make the week go by faster
but we will never know the depths of this since they’re no longer here to tell
it. Although, the best lessons ever learned are those through personal
experiences but we all can benefit from this one. 1. Don’t let your ego control
you 2. Know when to let go. 3. Don’t mess with anyone’s heart. 4. don’t do to
others what you would not want them to do to you.

Tracy knew more than anybody else
who she was involved with and yet, instead of packing up and leave, she chose
instead to carry on a five year illicit affair with a married man with
children. Capt. Barkey knew that the woman was in a long term committed
relationship with children and that her man was a bad MoFo, yet he persisted even
though he was threatened and followed by the man.

Joseph, Country, was no angel and of all
people, Tracy knew it. Why did she not make sure that she left first or ask the
man to leave.

Instead, she remained, went on
trips with her married lover, humiliated the father of her children, who in
better times supported her through nursing school, gave her so much money and built a life for
her and their children.

If I were Country, I would have
left the house but amply provide support for my kids. If I were Tracy, I would
have told the man that I am no longer happy, and that I am leaving. He would
have full visitation rights and even shared custody. If approach and addressed with respect,
Country would have understood. If I were
Wayne, I certainly would not placed my life in such jeopardy by carrying an
affair so openly and especially with a woman linked to a man with such
propensity to violence. What the hell did they expect? That Country was going
to find Jesus?

When you play with fire, you get
burned, sometimes beyond recognition. When you play with electricity, you end
up electrocuted. This is what happens to selfish and uncaring people. They all
deserved what happened to them; those who are left behind are the real victims.
