Mother's chilling hand-written note about 'evil that has mounted' against her ... trends now

A disturbing, yet cryptic handwritten note was left by the mother of a young Pennsylvania woman which spoke of 'evil mounted against her', just before her daughter encouraged both her parents to take their own lives in a planned suicide pact.

The bodies of Morgan Daub, 26, her mother Deborah, 59, and her father James, 62, were found behind the family home on Loman Avenue in West Manchester Township where the murder-suicide took place on the morning of January 25.

On Friday, police revealed to NBC News how mother Deborah Daub had left a handwritten document signed six days earlier, on January 19, in which 'she speaks of a joint decision' by her and her daughter Morgan to end their lives.  

Detective Timothy Fink explained in a statement how the note referred to the 'evil that had mounted against Morgan,' - but it did not go into further details.

The notes were written on January 24, just a day before the three bodies were found. 

Daughter, Morgan, together with her father left notes that suggested how the family had been planning to carry out the shootings and had made final preparations outlining what should become of the family's pet dog and their assets.

The notes contained important financial information as well as passages from the Bible, were also found in the trash.

Police also found a document called 'Cooper's Dog Letter,' which was a list of detailed instructions about how to care for the dog they left behind drugged so that it would not bite first responders.  

Police have since revealed that the way in which the bodies were positioned together with a pair of guns found at the scene and shell casings, 'support the account put forward by the written documents left behind by the family,' that 'all three family members decided to end their lives on 1/24/2023.'

According to the York Dispatch, additional written documents left behind by each family member said that Morgan had 'told her mother that she was having auditory hallucinations which were not getting better,' lead detective Fink told the outlet.

'Deborah wrote that she didn't want her daughter to pass on alone, so she had decided to end her life with her,' Fink said.

'The letter written by James indicated that they had told him their plan, and he decided that he didn't want to live without them.'

Morgan was found with metal sword in her left hand inscribed with the words 'The Sword of the Lord' on its blade and an empty gun holster on the right side of her belt on the morning of January 25 after neighbors saw the bodies and called 911.

A 'living will' had been taped to the inside of the sliding glass door of the home signed by all three members of the family, according to a search warrant.

The document detailed how the trio did not want to be resuscitated if they had been found alive.

'At the bottom of the note are three distinctly unique signatures for each name listed about followed by a date of 1/24/2023 written beneath the names,' stated Joseph Staley, an officer with West Manchester, on the search warrant.

James and Deborah's deaths were ruled as homicides by the York Country Coroner Pamela Gay, while Morgan's death was ruled a suicide.

Police have not confirmed who killed whom and in what order, however all three died from gunshot wounds to the head. Despite finding the knife, no cutting injuries were found.

The black and silver 'Sword of the Lord,' a Smith & Wesson M&P Shield 9mm pistol, a Sig Sauer AR-15, and 9mm shell casings and bullet fragments were collected from the scene, according to the outlet.

Snowfall had initially hidden a handgun which was later located in the backyard by officials.

Officers put up a cordon while a white tent was placed in the garden to mask the horrific sight of the Daub family laying lifeless in the backyard with gunshot wounds to their heads.
