Aussie twins Candice and Kristin Hermeler shot themselves in the head

In November 2010, Aussie twins Candice and Kristin Hermeler shot themselves in the head with .22 caliber pistols at the Family Shooting Center in Aurora, CO.




The 29-year-old women were in the area for more than a month and had taken gun lessons leading up to the suicide attempt. Kristin died instantly, but Candice survived. No suicide note was found at the scene.

When Candice woke up in the hospital, she told investigators there was indeed a suicide pact between her and Kristin. Investigators soon found written notes suggesting the twins did not have a good relationship with their mother and were virtual loners in their native Australia.

Also found among their belongings were clippings and letters that showed they had an unusual obsession with the 1999 massacre at Columbine High School, not far from the shooting range. There was even a letter written to Columbine survivor Brooks Brown in which Kristin wrote about bullying and described herself as "someone who has been rejected, victimized and ostracized." In a strange turn of events, it was discovered Kristin had left a will in 2008 – two years before the shootings – and made Candice the executor. Despite the plan to end their lives, Candice inherited $200,000 from her sister.
