NEWS: FLORIDA FAMILY FOUND DEAD; FATHER IS ‘PERSON OF INTEREST’

September 21st, 2009

The five children of Mesac DamasMichzach, 9, Marven, 6, Maven, 5, Megan, 3 and 11-month-old Morgan — are seen in a photo taken from Mesac’s Hi5 page. The five children and Mesac’s wife, Guerline, were found dead in their North Naples apartment Saturday night.

Collier County Sheriff’s Office investigators said Damas left Miami International Airport on a flight bound for Haiti about 10 a.m. on Friday. He is considered “a person of interest” but not a “suspect” at this point. A family member became worried after they hadn’t heard from anyone in the home and asked authorities to do a welfare check on Friday. Their knocks went unanswered, but nothing indicated anything was wrong.

On Saturday morning, the family member filed a missing persons report, and authorities requested from property management a key to the house and authorization to enter. When they did, they discovered the bodies of 32-year-old Guerline and her five children.

“I can tell you that in no uncertain terms this is the most horrific and violent event this community has ever experienced. This is the worst of the worst,” Collier County Sheriff Kevin Rambosk said at a news conference on Sunday. Foren Dieu said police told him his sister and her children all suffered slit throats.


According to authorities, there had been a “handful” of domestic disturbance calls to police since 2000 involving the Damas couple, with Mesac Damas being arrested in January, although he pleaded no contest to the misdemeanor battery against Guerline in June.

    This just confirms for me that Black Men are pre-dispositoned to Mental Illness. Black Men break so Fucken easily it’s a joke how weak they are. Hopefully if every women understands that you will never be played by one again in your life.

    His whole family is dead and he is MIA. Of course he did it who else would it have been?

    i don’t know why you guys even bother with “why does it have to be a race issue” argument. it’s always going to be a race issue – even in situations where race plays no part, lol. i’ve learned to deal with it. i don’t think it’s completely off the mark to mention that cases of this nature was a rareity if not totally ABSENT in the african american community at some point.

    now? not so much. i’m not sure what’s going on in the minds of these sick individuals that can do this, but i don’t even want to know. this is sad, and by them naming him a “person of interest” means they have reason to believe he in fact killed his entire family. which is a shame!

    i myself choose to not take an incident where it features a black person & make it personal. that is THAT individual….the actions of one does not make me condemn an entire race of people. i think that is a fault of ours. i have NEVER heard another race say the things that we say about our race. kinda sad to say the least, but you can’t school the self loathing idiots who rather HATE what they see in the mirror…then the alternative. oh well :)

    And grow up whoever suggested that all black have mental illness and are destined to behave this way. All races whether they’re, white, black, hispanic, Asian or whatever are guilty of such crimes. Let’s not be silly and generalise. The white media has obviously gotten to you, SMDH.

    that negro did it!!!! haitian men are extraordinarily jealous and raised to be spoiled, immature, possessive and beat excessively. just like spanish men who have that whole machismo attitude. most island men and foreign men ie russian, muslim, chinese where women are oppressed will treat women like possessions and material objects. if a woman does not abide, they will remove or end her life.

    it is evident that he did it because the wife was missing from work and when they called home to see where she was he picked up and said she was sick and on her way to the hospital, knowing that was a damn like.

    i blame the mother of these men because they should have raised their sons better and to respect women!!!!!! all because society treats women that way, get up and move out of the country or raise your son with better manners and ideals.

    i also blame the wife!!!!! i mean what do you expect. this man has threatened and exploded at you before where you had to call the police and file reports many times. there was even a social worker assigned to this case because of the welfare of the children. why would any woman allow a crazy evil violent person like that around their children? i dont care, when you become a mother you are supposed to protect your children. also, apparently this broad was dumb because she could have taken a restraining order out on this fool and divorced him but NO she stayed and probably begged him to come back each time. if she was not dead, i would have locked her up in prison. jennifer hudsons sister needs to be locked up for life too!!

    he would be worried about their whereabouts and showed some type of emotion but no he does not.

    i just read that this lame chick, his wife, attended anger management with him the day before she died because he threatened her life. um now, if you have to attend anger management with ur man……lmao…did she think that was romantic? im sick of chicks with that ride or die mentality because at the end of the day you do just that, DIE!!! he was angry and deranged when you met him and will never change boo now see where you are!!!

    @28…you sound young and dumb…

    Blame the mothers? Seriously? HE IS A GROWN ASS MAN….you raise your children to be the best they can and when they turn 18 what do you do???? It has nothing to do with his mother, she may have done the best that she could but her son took a wrong turn….he is grown he makes his own decisions not his mother….I’m pretty sure his mother didn’t raise him to do anything like this….he just sick!!!!

    Lock Jennifer Hudson sister up for life, and she lost her son??? You need to STFU, and show some respect….I’m sure she never thought he would do something to THAT extreme…a lot of these women don’t…should we blame them for these deaths…NO!! So stop pointing fingers at other people except for the twisted mothaf^cka$ who did this….no one to blame but them!!!!

    What I don’t get is…if you did something so heinous, why would you then run and try to get away with it!!? Obviously you were cold enough to kill them in cold blood, and the direct nature of their murders (actually slitting their throats with his own hand) means that he had extreme rage in him…so if you would go that far, why not just stick around and let justice be served? Or just off yourself.

    Although I hate it when they kill themselves because then there is no earthly punishment…but God’s punishment is eternal, we can be sure of that.

    This dude was probably demon possessed,because it is not human to violently and horrifically kill innocent children. that is pure evil.Haitians are notorious for practicing the pagan religion of voodoo,and many of them become mentally unstable as a result of dabbling in pagan voodoo rituals and calling on and conjuring up spirits to enter into them,which is demonistic.Actually,their is a good movie out,which is based on a true story of a white reporter who was doing a story on voodoo,and he participated in a voodoo ritual with Haitians,and he became demon possessed.

    If I be a betting man, the woman told him that she was going to leave him and take the children and the man snapped. These are the last days, and more of these things will occur. Let me also say that the European/American culture has demonized the heterosexual male and put him in the position where he feels that he has to do extreme things to compensate for his diminished role and establish his respect. Things like domestic violence and familial murder are offshoots of the denigration of the male image. It’s not an excuse for what he did, but the spirit that is naturally imbued in the male by God is contrary to the pro-woman, h*mosexual, l*sbian spirit of this society, so many of these weaker minded man will snap. Hell, when this society descends into the abyss that it is about to descend into, the real anger of the male will emerge as divine order is restored.

    @Lynn & Liz E

    Lmao, you’re the type of idiotic creatures that would provoke a man to slit your throats. If the black man were weak, there would be none left because the upper echelon of this society is controlled by an entity who’s sole goal is to destroy the black male. The black woman is not a threat, so she can be empowered with no fear of overthrow.

    Voodoo is witchcraft and paganism, but it is no more paganistic than the so-called Christian sun-worshipers who brag about how they are “saved” by the blood of a white man in a bedsheet. The Haitians are the priests of the Most High, but their true culture has been perverted in this captivity. Witchcraft is widespread amongst all our people, including the black Americans who practice “roots”. This isn’t a Haitian issue.
