"Sorry guys. I'm truly not this bad of a person. I've been pushed to this point over of time. I'm dissapointed (sic) in myself too. I could have been so much more. It's so sad."

"I'm a terrible person overall. Learn from my mistakes. Just know this was never my intentions. I love all of you. I'm just not meant to be happy. Ever. I'm sorry. I love you all. Xoxo."

According to Daily Mirror,the Allen County Sheriff Department said the couple - whose relationship reportedly ended last week after five years - got into an argument and Hodges was killed with a blast from a 20-gauge shotgun.The baby was not injured.
