Shamar Elkins Was Caught Cheating On Wife Before Killing 8 Kids? A Claim Surfaces Amid Shocking Case

The Louisiana shooting incident has left everyone shocked to the very core. 8 kids were killed, along with 2 women being fatally injured, and another kid being wounded. Shamar Elkins, a 31-year-old, was identified as a suspect, and amid this, his personal life grabbed the attention.

In an interview, Shamar Elkins's parents said that he was already drowning in dark thoughts and wanted to take his own life, which was caused by his marital issues. While it couldn't be confirmed by Elkins's parents about what was causing the cracks in his marriage, an unverified blog post made the rounds on social media, bringing a cheating angle.

Did Shamar Elkins cheat on his wife before killing 8 kids?

Shamar Elkins got married to Shaneiqua back on April 10, 2024, and it has been more than three years since they have been together, as traced by social media posts. The couple reportedly was facing some issues between them, and a recent independent blog post (Kossyderricksblog) claimed that neighbours have been saying that cheating was going on. It was shared in the blog's headline that Shamar was allegedly caught cheating, and also that one of the wounded women was related to him. It couldn't be confirmed whether this blog is revealing the right information, because it hasn't been officially verified yet.

However, it was Shamar's stepdad who revealed that the former had called him on Easter Sunday and was in a gloomy state. He told his stepdad that he was drowning in dark thoughts, as his wife had asked for a divorce from him. Mr Jackson, who is Shamar's stepdad, revealed that Shamar broke down in tears and even said he wanted to end his own life. Shamar's mom shared that while it was known that there were some cracks in his marital life, no reason was known. Amid this, the unverified blog which claims about cheating grabbed the attention.

Shamar killed 7 of his kids, as reported. His and Shaneiqua's social media were filled with cryptic posts. Shaneiqua promoted a post about he Zodiac sign, Aries, with a caption about 'leaving' and 'not looking back', which seems to be relatable to her. People have been commenting on her posts, and the same independent post also claimed that Shaneiqua is allegedly admitted to the hospital.
