The 51-year-old man who was arrested in connection with the abortion doctor’s killing, once subscribed to a magazine suggesting “justifiable homicide” against doctors who perform abortions. And he apparently likened George Tiller to the Nazi death-camp doctor Josef Mengele.

Sapa reports that according to his former wife, Roeder’s family life began unraveling more than a decade ago when he got involved with anti-government groups. He then became “very religious in an Old Testament, eye-for-an-eye way,” his former wife, Lindsey Roeder, told The Associated Press.

“The anti-tax stuff came first, and then it grew and grew. He became very anti-abortion,” said Lindsey Roeder, who was married to Scott Roeder for 10 years but “strongly disagrees with his beliefs.” Lindsey Roeder said that the early years of the marriage were good and that Scott Roeder worked in an envelope factory. But she said he moved out of their home after he became involved with the Freemen movement, an anti-government group that discouraged paying taxes. The Roeders have one son, now 22.
