Three members of a family were found d£ad their home early this week.
Authorities in Alabama are investigating a triple homicide after Lisa Gail Fields, 46, and her two children, 17-year-old Keziah Luker and 12-year-old Thomas Cordelle Jr., were found slain in their Wilmer, Alabama home on Monday, April 20, according to the Mobile County Sheriff’s Office.
Authorities did not name any suspects or persons of interest as of Tuesday, April 21.
The investigation revealed Fields had been stabbed and her throat was cut; Keziah had been fatally shot and Thomas was found with his throat slit, according to the outlets.
The 12-year-old boy had been almost decapitated, according to the sheriff.
All three victims had been bound with zip ties with their hands behind their backs, and were found in separate rooms, per police.
Keziah was about eight-months pregnant, FOX 11 and AL.com reported.
The bodies were found after Keziah’s boyfriend, who was at work, noticed her phone moving on the Life360 app; when he couldn’t reach her, he asked his father to check in on her, News 5 reported.
His father found the bodies and called 911.
Police say the residence looked like someone had rummaged through it, leading authorities to believe the suspects were looking for something, both outlets reported.
Investigators are considering the possibility of multiple suspects as the victims had been subdued.
An 18-month-old was found physically unharmed in the residence; the child was Keziah’s.
No suspects nor a motive have been identified as of Tuesday; police say they don’t believe the crime to be domestic in nature.
A GoFundMe has been set up for Fields’ son to support him with funeral arrangements for his family members.
Fields’ husband Nathan Fields wrote in a post on Facebook he is offering $1,000 to anyone who can provide him with names of the suspects.
“Everyone knows we lost three very special people last night. Senseless and uncalled for,” he wrote in a separate post on Tuesday, April 21.
“We had both finally found each other and it may not have been perfect but she was and she made me better.”
