Prosecutors say the argument started after the defendant and his wife were. removed from the house.

The responding officers pronounced 56-year-old lrene, 63-year-old Levvis and 30-year-old Mathew dead at the scene. Shortly after, hospital staff called 911 and told the dispatcher that the defendant arrived at the hospital and reportedly admitted to killing his family members last night. 

During an interview with investigators, the 37-year-old defendant reportedly said that he and his wife were klcked out of his parent’s home. The defendant also told investigators that he wanted to talk with them before his sibling interfered and they got into a physical fight. Shortly after, the defendant grabbed his gun and shot his brother to death before entering his parents’ house and killing them as well.

During the investigation process, authorities reportedly discovered that the defendant’s two children were inside his vehicle on the fatal day.

The defendant’s wife was sentenced to 3 years in prison after she assisted her husband leaving the crime scene.
