A father in Chicago left home expecting an ordinary day. By the time he returned, his family life had been destroyed in a way investigators and neighbors are still struggling to understand.
Police who entered the home found six people dead inside, including two children. The scene quickly became the center of a major investigation, with officers working to determine who was responsible and what could have led to such a devastating act.
The father, described as Mexican in the original account, became the only surviving member of his household. What remained for him was not only grief, but a painful search for answers that have not come easily.
