Don't recall editing this. Must have been admins, but they never say why.
If admins edit posts it should say so.

He appeared poised to take over the governor’s office from Ralph Northam in 2019 after a scandal over a racist photo in Northam’s medical school yearbook. Then, two women accused Fairfax of sexual assault. Fairfax denied the allegations, tried to clear his name and was never charged with a crime.
Also, he black.

Sounds like it. Police say it was an ongoing domestic dispute during a messy divorce.

Fairfax shared two teenage children with his wife. Both children were present during the time of the murder. Davis said it is a "traumatic event for … those children to live through."
What an absolute monster.

Police believe the murder happened in the basement of the home and at some point after shooting his wife, Justin Fairfax ran upstairs of the home to the primary bedroom, where he shot himself. He used the same gun, but police have not recovered it yet.
The couple has two children who were home at the time of the shooting, and one of them called 911.
The couple got married on June 17, 2006, after meeting at Duke University. According to court records, they were going through a divorce.
"Right now I can just tell you...that this has been an ongoing domestic dispute surrounding what seems to be a complicated or or messy divorce," FCPD Chief Kevin Davis said.
FCPD has responded to prior domestic-related calls at the home, with the most recent one in January.
"Mr. Fairfax called the police and alleges that his wife, assaulted him, we responded to that scene." However, Davis said no "assault occurred" and was "proven to be untrue."
Davis also said Cerina Fairfax had several cameras installed in the home and that is something police will look into for evidence.
The cameras were installed because of previous alleged assaults reported to police, authorities said.
Police added they were "separated but living together" and that Justin Fairfax was served some paperwork recently that may have "sparked" this shooting.
"Mr. Fairfax was served some type of paperwork indicating when he was scheduled to next appear in court for the ongoing divorce proceedings. So I guess that is, well, that is something that we're looking at as something that may have led to whatever happened last night that led to the murder of a mother and a wife and a citizen," FCPD chief said.
Police plan to execute an existing search warrant at the Annandale residence to recover all relevant evidence, including the firearm used in the incident.
"The family was going through, seemingly a very tough time with the separation, with the divorce," Chief Davis said. "I can only imagine the stress that the parents felt, the kids felt, and the other family members as well."
Police said the children are being supported by the victim services division.
Justin Fairfax worked under Ralph Northam, who served as the 73rd governor of Virginia from 2018 to 2022.

Former Virginia Lieutenant Governor Justin Fairfax, a Democrat, was accused of sexual assault by two women in 2019. Vanessa Tyson and Meredith Watson alleged separate assaults in 2004 and 2000, respectively. Fairfax denied the allegations, claimed the encounters were consensual, and passed privately administered polygraph tests.

Key Details of the Allegations
Vanessa Tyson (2004): A professor who alleged Fairfax forced her to perform oral sex in a Boston hotel room during the Democratic National Convention.
Meredith Watson (2000): Alleged Fairfax raped her when they were students at Duke University.
Response: Fairfax denied both allegations, calling them a "coordinated smear campaign". He demanded law enforcement investigations and filed a $400 million lawsuit against CBS for their reporting on the accusers' interviews.
Outcome: No criminal charges were filed, and despite calls for resignation, Fairfax remained in office until his term ended.
