Jacob Forman will spend the rest of his days in jail for the triple murder of his wife and two daughters. The 35-year-old Canadian man killed his wife Clara Forman, 33, with a hammer and then strangled his daughters Karina, 7, and Yesenia, 8. When his wife argued with him and complained that he was drinking Too much alcohol, Jacob hit his head three times with a hammer, killing the young mother at her home in Kelowna, Canada on December 17, 2017.

He then allegedly killed his daughters to spare them the pain of growing up knowing that their father had murdered their mother. While beating her, Clara asked her husband, "What are you doing?" According to the Canadian Press's testimony in court.

The girls heard their mother scream and the father hid what had happened to them, saying that Clara was not feeling well. She then took her daughters to church, according to CBC News. Later the girls returned home and he asked them to put on their pajamas before strangling them one by one. He first killed the oldest, Yesenia, telling her he wanted to "play a game," Fox News reported, hanging her using a toy from a wooden horse. Her younger sister Karina suffered the same fate.

Jacob confessed to authorities that he contemplated committing suicide after killing his wife and daughters. However, the man went to work as if nothing had happened for the next two days after the triple murder. When Clara did not arrive at work, her colleagues alerted the police, who found the bodies of the young mother and her daughters in the garage of the house.
