They are not letting much information out. It appears that Lopez was in the house when grandpa and boys arrived. Makes me think that the AR-15 and handgun were stored in the house. But we don’t know how the 5 died.

This story needs to be opened up completely to the public. I think TDC, police and SO are not being transparent because they did not do due diligence. They claim to have cleared the house and property several times. Why didn’t they find Lopez?
