Director David Crowley and his family 'died' after making this film. It was never officially released . This is the trailer to Gray State. Of course there was nothing suspicious about the "murder suicide".
The Crowleys seemed to have idyllic suburban lives.
David Crowley was a screenwriter and aspiring filmmaker working on his first independent film.
Komel Crowley was a registered dietitian who, like her husband, mostly worked from their Apple Valley home.
Together, they were raising their 5-year-old daughter, Raniya — a bright kindergartner who rarely missed a day of school.
But that illusion vanished a year ago, when all three were found fatally shot Jan. 17 in the living room of their rambler in what investigators immediately said pointed to an apparent murder-suicide three weeks earlier.
“What it all adds up to is this was a guy who snapped,” Apple Valley Police Chief Jon Rechtzigel said. “To cross that line, to go to that level of violence — and this is domestic violence, make no ifs ands or buts about it … I mean, you take the lives of your daughter and your wife and besides that you’re writing things on the wall in blood. Nobody thinks to do that unless they’re really of a deranged mind at that point.”
