Hard to believe it’s been almost a year since we read the tragic story of Mary Ann Holder, who murdered five children— two of them her own —–following a broken love affair with a married man.
Now we learn Randy Lamb’s wife is is filing a claim against Holder’s modest estate for the $10,000 check Holder made out to her the night before the killings in hopes of avoiding an alienation of affection lawsuit.
Not an attorney here, but I say good luck with that. Better off that Jennifer Lamb let his one go. My heart goes out to Holder’s surviving daughter Christina Key, who is handling her late mother’s estate, not an easy job for a 21-year-old.

Makes you wonder if there had never been any threat of alienation of affection lawsuit or $10K settlement accepted would those kids would still be alive today.

Only in America can you sue for blackmail money and portray an adulter husband as a victim?!?!?! Jennifer Lamb is going to smack head on into the karma train before this ends! Class acts!!!

That woman doesn’t deserve one single dime from Mary Ann Holder’s estate. Shame on her what gives her the right to think she is entitled to this money? I think there is so much more to this store than what has been told. I wonder if the Lamb’s sleep at night? Do they ever blame themselves? I personally don’t know either family but just from what I have read I think that there is so much more to this story and I feel sorry for Mary Ann Holder what made her go over the edge? What made her kill her family? I think the Lamb’s know more than what they what they have said. My thoughts are with the Holder Family my they find peace.

The fact is the Lambs are delusional and have made the scenario in their heads their reality. They are a very sick duo who have no conscious and know what they have done. Some kind of sicko pact or something. Word has it a wrongful death suit is stirring because they continue to harass the Holder family. Idiots.

I know neither family but have followed the story. Question. Can anyone out there who knows the Lambs please tell me how Jennifer Lamb justifies her husband’s infidelities to where she can lay her head down next to a man whose actions caused such a horrific event? And the lawsuit?? Where does she get that anyone owes her anything?? The ony thing she should be asking for is a DIVORCE!!!

as ricky and hanaleighs father i have stayed out of the media. There has been enough “fundrasing” and newspaper articles that do nothing but disrespect what happened to those kids. That should be the most important, that a woman who was supposed to take care of these children shot all of them in the head and then refused to call for help to save them. the emts said that when they went in the house a few hours after they were shot, all of them but one were still alive. It takes two people to have an affair, and the Lambs didnt kill anyone. The only comfort i have is i know she will never see those kids or her best friend(my wife) again. I know exactly where shes at

Brian, I know you very well and had you not been the addict that you were and the wife beater that you were, Beth would still be here and Ricky and Hana would still be here! Don’t you dare make yourself out to be this holier than thou individual!! K, I’m done now!!

As i recall Ricky and Hannaleigh’s mother died as a result from some injuries she had received before giving birth to her last baby. The unfaithful husband isn’t blameless either. He should have been at home with his wife and maybe this all wouldn’t have happened. God will prevail in the end.

This is in response to 2 responses about Brian Suttles, made in January 2013. I am Brian’s mother. First of all, I have never ever known Brian to take a holier than thou attitude. He will readily admit that he used drugs in the past, so he admits his wrongdoing. As far as the wife-beating, where did you get that from? I talked with Beth his wife almost daily. The only thing she ever told me was that he put bruises on her wrists, trying to restrain her from going out to see another married man and she married herself (the newborn’s daddy). He should have NEVER EVER even grabbed her and put bruises on her wrists but if you’ll check any reoords I believe you will find that is ALL you will find against him. For I know surely you would not believe something that Mary Ann said. She told the hospital that Brian “beat Beth up” because she wanted Brian out of their way, for she and Beth wanted to get a place together, and wanted Brian out of the picture, this was her opportunity. Also when Mary Ann thought Brian might get the children, she had petition ready for the court saying Brian was a drug user and had “beat his wife.” I do think Beth told someone at her employment that Brian “beat her” to justify her affair. Like I say, check Brian’s court record and any charges and see for yourself. Just don’t listen to people who may have told things that weren’t exactly true, to defend themselves or for some personal purpose. I am a FIRM believer in the truth, whether it be my family or anyone. Like I say, Brian shouldn’t have ever grabbed Beth’s wrist and caused bruises, it was not right. But that is a far cry from saying she was “beat up.” And you can also check Beth’s death certificate. According to that, doctor’s diagnoses, etc. she had a form of pneumonia and never responded to treatment and that caused her death. She had a bad case of strep when she went into labor and had a hot fever. And got worse AFTER she went into the hospital. Thank you for reading this. It is 100% the truth the best that I know.
