Deeds was listed in fair condition late Tuesday after his son, Austin, stabbed him in the face and chest, then shot himself in what investigators suspect was an attempted murder and suicide.
The incident thrust the senator back into the spotlight after several years of quiet. Deeds (D) vaulted to the statewide political stage in 2009 as the Democratic nominee for governor, only to lose to Republican Robert F. McDonnell (R). After the defeat, Deeds went through a divorce and largely receded from public view, even though he stayed on in the Senate.

One can only hope that he has Obamacare with a $20,000 deductible...oh never mind he's probably exempt
Like? Isn't it their job to find out?
The son was angry with the father b/c he had to go for an evaluation. The father had been his caregiver for all his life and helped to keep him going. It is the nature of the beast. So sad!!
The cops shot him because he deserved it for stabbing his dad.
Terribly sad.
