Gray State, the movie: Was the Crowley Family killed for this?
On Jan. 17, 2015, a neighbor found the decomposing bodies of 29-year-old Army veteran and screenwriter David T. Crowley, his wife Komel and their 5-year-old daughter Rani in their Apple Valley, Minnesota home. Police say the bodies had been there for up to four weeks, as the Crowleys had not been seen since Christmas.
David Crowley was the script writer of Gray State, an independent (i.e., non-Hollywood) movie that depicts the dystopic future that many of us fear for America — one of government conspiracy and militarization, societal breakdown, martial law, FEMA camps, and civil war. (See “Script writer of movie on America in martial law found dead in murder-suicide”.)
Pat Pheifer reports for the Minnesota Star Tribune, Jan. 22, 2015, that Crowley had shot his wife and daughter in the head before shooting himself, according to a report from the Hennepin County medical examiner’s office released Wednesday.
Yet Jason Allen, a producer based in Los Angeles, said that Crowley’s words and actions when the two had met in September and in an e-mail Crowley sent him on Dec. 17, seem contradictory to a man who was about to kill his family and himself.
Crowley and Allen had met in Los Angeles, when Crowley asked Allen to consider signing on to the Gray State project as an executive producer.
Although the medical examiner says the Crowleys’ deaths were a murder-suicide, David’s friends, family and co-workers have said they do not believe it. They describe the Crowleys as a “gorgeous” and “happy” couple and that David had a promising career and an extremely happy home life. They believe he was murdered.
