[/font][font="Verdana,Sans-serif"] CARNATION, Wash. (AP) - The bodies of six people, likely family members and including two young children, were found Wednesday at a rural property east of Seattle, a sheriff's sergeant said.
The victims included a boy about age 3, a girl about age 6, a man and woman in their 30s, and a man and woman in their 50s, King County sheriff's Sgt. John Urquhart said...

Autopsies have not been performed on the bodies, but the cause of death was most likely gunshots, Urquhart said.

Detectives have ruled out murder-suicide as the causes of death, and investigators were searching the area for possible suspects in the killings, Urquhart said.

insisted there was no danger to anyone else living nearby.

Asked to explain, he said, "You have to take my word for it."

Okay, that all sounds rather fishy to me... So if it wasn't a murder-suicide and you're looking for a suspect in the area, how can you possibly claim there's no danger to anyone living nearby?!?!

I'm voting zombies, due to them saying "most likely gunshots". Either they have holes in them or they don't!... or maybe they were shot after rising from the dead.

(Note: sorry to make fun of this, as it is a tragedy. But, if you can't make light of senselessness in life, you'll go insane.)

I agree with you Just-a-car this is fishy. Sorry mr.police guy if you haven't found the guy who killed a 3 year old and a 6 year old i am most certainly in danger. With such little information i am left to conclude "zombies" as well.

Class 1 outbreak seems to have been put down.

Ah, I see you've read Max Brookes' Zombie Suvival Guide also. Good man... I read this and instantly thought of the signs mentioned in the book. I should put this one in my Zombie Journal. *snicker*

The police arrested a man and woman who were "well known" to the victims about the time it hit the paper. The couple stopped by the crime scene early in the morning and were questioned by detectives.

The police probably got some answers that led them to believe the case is pretty well closed.

But having a gun to protect yourself is just irresponsible and leads to more violence. In a civilized nation only the police should have guns. We certainly don't need vigilantiism when the police are perfectly capable of protecting you and enforcing the laws.

And they send the SWAT teams for Legal OC'ing?

I prayed last night for all especialy the one last victim who made the 911 call only to go unanswered?

It was probly too cold to get out of car and walk up to the residence ... I hope that lazy Cop feels guilty cause I sure as heck would.

I'm betting meth was involved somehow.

What makes the failure of the Deputies to gain access is made more "interesting" when the bodies were found by a co-worker from the Post Office. Let's see now, Deputies can't get in? Post Office can?

According to the radio news today the dispatcher heard a lot of background noise and thought there was a party going on when the phone was hung up. 30 minutes later Deputies show up at locked gate. On the surface it looks like the opportunity to either stop some of the killing was missed or at least the bodies would be found far sooner (fresher evidence).

The original quote had to be sarcasm.

These events make me sad. To even imagine my own worst enemy is a family member or friend. To especially have to defend yourself over some petty money.

"The deputies were sent out at 5:19 p.m. and arrived at 5:45 p.m."



I don't need to arm myself. I can just wait a half hour for the police to arrive.:banghead:

Actually, depending on how rural the area, that is par for the course for areas around Carnation/Duvall and S Snohomish CO.

In some situations the Sheriffs will be virtually unable to find the home. I know from experience ;)

Last time we called the county mounties it took 45 minutes for them to show up. I've got enough ammo to hold off the zombie hoards for that long, though.
