Images released by the King County Sheriff's Office in Washington show the mountain bunker of murder suspect Peter Keller. US law enforcement blew the roof off the hideout in Washington state on April 28, and inside reportedly found Keller's body. Keller is suspected of killing his wife and teenage daughter, officials said.

Keller, who had been missing since April 22, when the bodies of Lynnettee Rocha Keller and her daughter Kaylene Keller were discovered at the family home, apparently died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound. Keller, 41, was named a suspect on April 25 in the murder of his wife and daughter, whose bodies were found after neighbors called the authorities when they noticed the home had been set on fire.

    Why haven't the police released a motive yet?

    By the way folks, you need that much protection in the woods up there just from Bears who would attack and eat you.

    That did not look like it was heavily fortified.

      Have the police matched any of the weapons found with Mr Keller to the crime?

      Do they have a motive?

      The answer is NO, but that sure is an interesting "survivalist" doomsday bunker.

              Have any of you ever visited the giant Redwood home at a fair that this guy hollowed out and made a home out of?

              It's built extremely tough to keep Bears out.

                This guy and others like him are NOT "survivalist". The news media and everyone else need to get that straight. This guy obviously didn't have any REAL survival knowledge...........all he had was FEAR.

                Survival is a matter of knowing how to survive when you are out in the middle of nowwhere with nothing but a couple of items on hand.

                You want to see real "survival" techniques...........then check this out:

                I think if there is no doubt as to the guilt, they should be put to death within 30 days. No appeals, etc. wasting the taxpayer's money. The people against this type of punishment should put their money where their mouth is and pay for someone's defense. If it were my relative I wouldn't want any mercy shown for this person. He is where he belongs and it probably isn't heaven.

                  Because they're not "Survivalists." A survivalist doesn't start a shootout with the government because the government will win. A survivalist knows how to be social, knows useful skills, and helps his neighbors.

                  And because the press, especially PMSNBC are incapable of factual reporting when they might milk some hysteria and "liberal" "tolerance" from their drooling, mouth-breathing fanclub (not you, Airborn7, but read some of the other comments and you'll see what I mean).

                    Question: Did he own the land he built his bunker on? Or was it public land?

                    It seems odd he'd manage to build such an elaborate structure and stock it with weapons and supplies without anybody noticing. It's out in the middle of nowhere, of course, away from trails -- but wouldn't people still notice him hauling ALL those construction supplies out to the middle of the woods?

                      most of the other people out in the woods would nod their heads, and think "you go get em guy"! we wont tell a soul about ya. "but pleeeez, stay away from my bunker. i dont need any crazies holding up near me." Tribuck i know where your hovel is located

                      The inside of the bunker looks much as expected. A rat hole dug by a crazy, fearful white guy unable to deal with the world.

                          It's really amazing to read the comments from all you leftist zombies who choose to be slaves to an oppressive, totalitarian government. You purport to be have a monolopy on "caring" and tolerance, then you always show your true colors when someone who you disagree with dies, taking glee in the death of a "survivalist". And, being sarcastic about him dying in his bunker facing an onslaught of government explosives shows what ignorant scum you really are. Yeah, that was really a fair fight. Of course, you've never really been about fairness.

                          Laugh at him now. I'll be the one laughing at you when obama's NWO jackboots are dragging you from your house, or you are running terrified through the streets after the electricity grid is cut off and the savages among us are killing and pillaging in order to stay alive. I'll be safely tucked away at my remote retreat. Laugh at me now................but tuck this one away and remember me when you are running scared one day soon.

                            I bet it was warm in the winter and cool in the summer when out hunting or just enjoying nature.

                            A great inexpensive shelter in the woods.

                            The doomsday bunker rhetoric is just hilarious.

                            8 years? He worked on that piece of crap for 8 years? I think he hated his family and just wanted to get out of the house. Might be enough ammo for a fun weekend of shooting and that bunker is CRAP!

                            No, no, you're thinking of "Tolerant," "liberal" "democrats" who call a hunting lodge a "bunker" and a few boxes of ammo "heavily fortified" and convict people without any trial based on them being "white," even if they're half Peruvian, because "they have a white name."

                              LOL OMG are you kidding me. that wasnt enough ammo to go out gofer hunting. They should have spread it out or something. LOL Your average hunter has at least # guns and with each gun you carry at least 10 boxes of shell and that's to to use a rifle range and go playing.. What a joke a dam dirt hole that a good storm could have knocked down funny how they try to make every person who carries a little ammo or owns more then one gun a Heavily armed terror suspect.
