- In November 2025, New Zealand man Dean Field allegedly killed his three young children August, Hugo and Goldie before setting their home on fire. Dean perished along with the children.
- Ohio man Ryan Eagon and his wife Raven had a tumultuous relationship. Raven believed that Ryan was away for work and she enlisted the help of a previous partner, Dustin Willey, to help her move her two children and their belongings out of the home.
