Massachusetts couple found dead in an apparent weekend murder-suicide
Authorities say that a Massachusetts couple died this weekend in what appears to be a murder-suicide.
Officials have confirmed that on December 25 just after 1:30 p.m., police responded to a home on Beacon Street in Lowell. Upon arrival police located a 60-year-old male and a 55-year-old female, husband and wife, dead from apparent gunshot wounds.
According to Middlesex District Attorney Marian Ryan and Lowell Police Superintendent Barry Golner, the preliminary investigation suggested that the male, identified as Jose Santiago, shot his wife, Rosa Santiago, before fatally shooting himself.
Yesterday the office of the Chief Medical Examiner conducted autopsies on the bodies and determined the manner of death for Jose Santiago to be suicide and the manner of death for Rosa Santiago to be homicide.
This investigation is being conducted by the Middlesex District Attorney’s Office, Lowell Police and Massachusetts State Police Detectives assigned to the District Attorney’s Office.
