VERDIGRIS, OKLAHOMA: A shocking revelation has been made against a woman who allegedly carried out a murder-suicide involving her three young children. Brandy McCaslin reportedly killed Billy, Noe, and Bryce, before claiming her own life on July 20. Now, her ex has claimed that the 39-year-old attempted to take her life in January of this year as well.
Billy Jacobson announced the death of the four in a Facebook post, where he wrote, “Please keep us in your prayers. Brandy McCaslin did a murder-suicide with all three kids. Billy, Noe, Bryce, and Brandy have all passed.” The post received a lot of heartfelt messages with one reading, “Praying for you. I have no words but a broken heart that aches with yours. You don't know me but I'm so sorry and if there's anything I can do to help you I will be there for you. If you believe in Jesus even as small as a mustard seed, cling to Him...His peace and love will pull you through.”
Another person added, “Such a confusing, devastating time for you…..what we know for sure is.. all 3 of these babies are wrapped in God’s palm & Angel feathers. May you all find a peace that surpasses all understanding at this moment.”
Who is Billy Jacobson?
Jacobson is reportedly the former partner of now-deceased McCaslin and they also had a son together, named Billy, who also died in the incident. The man has revealed on social media that his ex had tried to kill herself earlier as well. He posted, “There's something I want everyone to be clear about. When Brandy McCaslin tried to commit suicide in January. She tried to change my son's name because she was mad at me because I wasn't coming back to her.”
“His name was Billy from day one. I never stopped calling him anything but that and it was wrong of her to do so. Out of respect to me and my son, who had no choice in the loss of his life due to his mother. Please do not refer to my child as anything but Billy. He deserves that,” he added.
Not much is known about Jacobson except the information he has shared on his Facebook account. As per his page, he is from Claremore, Oklahoma, and is currently in a relationship with a woman named Camron Fennell, who also posted about the tragedy on her page.
Fennell said, “Our hearts are shattered into a million tiny pieces. I can't believe our precious 9 month baby boy is really gone. How in the hell can a "mother" be so selfish and evil to take the lives of her 3 innocent babies . Burning in hell for an eternity is not enough punishment for her!!”
A number of people expressed their sadness over the case as a person said, “Always was Billy and always will be Billy I am coming down soon as I can, hope to see ya and hug your neck brother, sorry your going through this. Many prayers.” A second one wrote, “My heart goes out to you and the entire family. I’m so sorry that this happened to you. May God bring you strength in your time of grief. My heart is broken over this.” "So so sorry for your loss!!! Your heartache is felt by everyone reading this tragic story. Prayers for you and your family for strength in this difficult time," a third person added.
‘Brandy’s life was full of trauma, loss’
However, a woman named Danielle Kendig has shown mercy toward McCaslin. She noted, “I’m just utterly crushed by this news. My heart breaks for all those that this devastating loss will forever change. Brandy and I were inseparable most of our lives, even despite thousands of miles and opposite personalities. She was family.”
Kendig continued, “The last two years we hadn’t talked much, which part of me will regret. Brandy’s life was full of trauma, loss, addiction, and hardships. My heart aches to think that this tragedy could have been prevented if she had better access to mental health services,” before adding, “I just pray that she, along with her three sweet babies, are together and reunited with all the family and friends they have lost throughout the years. May God give us the strength to remember the healthy version of her… the joy she brought us, the way she laughed, the kindness she had for others, how she relentlessly would defend what she believed in…and not let this tragedy overshadow those memories.”
