Three members of a family, a father and two sons, were found dead last 4th January in their own home. The corpses were in an advanced state of decomposition. The first death took place last November, although the bodies were discovered in January so it is believed that the rest of the family had been living with them in the same room. Everything began when the children’s school notified the police that the kids were not attending classes and the school hadn’t been able to speak to their parents. The Police requested an order from the judge to get into their home where the father (46 years old), a son (14 years old) and a daughter (12 years old) were found dead. The rest of the family (the mother and three children) were taken to hospital because they seemed to be seriously ill. The post-mortem examination revealed the cause of death was food poisoning. The rest of the family were safe. The day the news came out we could hear different opinions from the neighbors: “they were a nice family”, “the father worked with a van”, “the children were at other children’s birthdays”, “they were integrated in the neighborhood”. But the question is: if everybody knew them so well, why did nobody realize this family had disappeared two months ago? This and more will be revealed in our next magazine.
