KLAMATH FALLS, Ore. - A man used e-mail to try to set up a mass suicide on Valentine's Day (news - web sites) involving as many as 32 people across the nation and Canada, authorities said.
Gerald Krien, 26, was arrested Wednesday and faces charges of solicitation to commit murder, according to Klamath County sheriff's deputies.
The alleged pact was to take place Feb. 14 at Krien's home, and one mother even agreed to murder her two children, sheriff's Lt. Rod Dailey said.
Acting on a tip, deputies searched Krien's house and seized his computer, authorities said. He was being held without bail at the Klamath County Jail, and a grand jury was scheduled to consider the case next week.
