In a Facebook Live video, shared on Saturday and recorded between the killings, Black admitted: "I just did something crazy, man."

The troubled father continued: "I just shot my ex-girlfriend in the head, yo. Um... [it] felt like a dream.

"I never thought I would be that guy."

“S**t has been real crazy," he explained, noting that the person who ignited his depression and "all of this" was his former wife Wendy.

Black was standing outside of Wendy's home as he filmed himself.

"So, she[‘s] next. And then I’m going to do myself, too," Black noted before saying he "can't go to prison."

He concluded: "But I just wanted to say this to people, 'Don’t play with people’s emotions, man. Don’t lie on these men.'"

The moment Wendy is seen at the front door, Black said: "Oh, here’s my ex-wife right now."

Before the footage abruptly ends, Black — who previously had multiple domestic violence complaints from his ex-wife — walked inside the house and said: "Today's the day."

The video has since been taken down from Facebook but has been shared by .

Black and his Wendy were identified by Howard County Police on Sunday as two of the three individuals who were killed in the apparent double murder-suicide.

On Monday morning, the third individual, Black's ex Tara, was identified by Baltimore Police.

Police revealed the Blacks' two kids were found safe in Rajaee's BMW parked in the apartment complex parking lot and the double-homicide took place within one hour of each other.

It's believed that the children were put into the vehicle before Wendy was gunned down.

According to The Baltimore Sun, Black and his ex-wife Wendy — both who worked as certified registered nurse anesthetists — have had an ongoing custody battle since July 2018.
