A 2020 report from the Enoch Police Department alleges Michael Haight, who murdered seven members of his own family in January, showed signs of controlling and violent behavior.
Tausha Haight, her five children and her mother were laid to rest after a funeral in La Verkin outside of Zion National Park in southern Utah. Police say Michael Haight shot and killed his family in their Enoch home.
A Utah man who fatally shot his five children, mother-in-law and wife and then killed himself had removed guns owned by himself and his wife days before the murder-suicide, leaving the family “vulnerable,” a relative said Friday. The wife, Tausha Haight, told her extended family that her husband, Mike Haight, took the guns from the family’s home this week, just two weeks after she had filed for divorce, sister-in-law Jennie Earl told The Associated Press. She said she did not know how Tausha Haight felt about the removal but said it “left the family vulnerable,” noting that both Tausha and her mother, Gail Earl, were trained in gun safety and personal protection.
