In what appears to be a murder-suicide, a couple and their son were discovered dead. This comes after authorities received a chilling call from inside the residence with the words “Kill me now” uttered in the background.
Investigators believe that at 3 a.m. on Thursday, Andrew Robinson, 56, murdered his wife Linda Robinson, 55, and their 12-year-old son Sebastian in their $2 million mansion in Andover, Massachusetts, before killing himself.
A male could be heard shouting and objects were being broken in the background of the 911 call, the operator informed the officers as they arrived at the residence.
Although it’s unknown who called, the dispatcher insisted the caller hadn’t responded.
According to her uncle David Arsenault, Linda was a model and an accountant. She was the epitome of an angel.
Along with his stepbrothers David and Roger Arsenault, Linda’s father Joseph Hachey paid a visit to the residence. The three people gathered around the dining room table and saw old pictures of the family.
Sebastian came to Hachey’s mind as “an angel.”
He noted that after the epidemic, he didn’t see Linda as frequently and regarded to their lives as “private.”
They purchased a sizable freezer, loaded it with food, and connected the house to power generators, according to Hachey.
Have you seen your sister? I would ask my son Steve. He would then ask, “Who?” Linda hibernated,’ it was said.
Although Hachey remembered Steve seeing Sebastian in March of last year, it is unknown when Linda last saw her family. He was captured on camera donning a mask.
Officers forced their way inside the Robinsons’ home, setting off the alarm, which woke the neighbors.
According to Andover Police Chief Patrick Keefe, “They had to breach two doors to get inside the house.” “They entered the home.” They discovered the 12-year-old son, mother, and father dead.
“Gunshot wounds caused the injuries.” We already know how, but we’re now attempting to understand why.
With a clear view of the Robinsons’ home, Janean and Andy Sullivan, 42 and 44, observed as the police entered the residence while carrying torches.
The news source quoted Janean as saying, “We didn’t know if it was a break-in but I just knew something bad happened.”
According to Chief Keefe, the family is “private,” and there haven’t been any past reports from the house.
The four-bedroom home’s most recent sale, according to Redfin records, was for $1,338,000 in 2003. According to Zillow, the property’s worth has climbed by more than $2 million since then.
Aerial footage of the house revealed a playground with a slide for kids and a basketball hoop in front of the garage.
Sebastian was recognized as a student at St. John’s Preparatory School in the sixth grade. All classes were canceled on Thursday after officials confirmed his passing.
At a news conference held at the school, Edward Hardiman, the headmaster of St. John’s, expressed how devastated his community was by Sebastian’s untimely death. Sebastian was a beautiful kid. He was adored by his teachers and had a sweet and kind demeanor. exceptionally inventive.
“He was just a really wonderful kid with a great nature,” continued Hardiman.
According to the news source, Andrew worked for Channel Building Co. until he left six months ago.
The former neighbor of Linda shared her grief over her passing while recalling their youthful interactions.
The neighbor commented, “I’m speechless. Linda was my neighbor when I was a kid, and I used to sneak into her yard to play sometimes. It saddens me to hear that her and her son’s life were taken so soon.”
