New details revealed in case of Washington state teen charged with killing his family



Police say the suspect, a 15-year-old boy, who allegedly killed five of his family members in Washington state, called 911 and claimed that it was his brother. He told officials his 13-year-old brother “just shot my whole family and committed suicide too.” According to investigators, the claim directly contradicts that of the teen’s 11-year-old sister who was able to escape after being shot.

  1. This is so so sad! Parents please lock up your guns so that children can't get to them . Make sure they can't open the gun safe. I can't begin to imagine the horror the 11 year old daughter is facing.

  2. Soul-crushing, and I live an hour away. What in the world is going on? At least the killer is a liar, and hopefully charged as an adult. This is a horrific crime. I’m so sorry for the loved ones and friends of this family. You are all in my prayers, always. Love you.

  3. My kiddo played against Joshuas team just this past saturday. Rare to see a female coach for a boys team but noticed her sweet interactions with the kiddos. May the family get closure and the little one heal with time. Such a tragedy.
