A murder-suicide investigation is underway after two Lamar CISD teachers were found dead inside a home in the Richmond area on Monday evening.
The Fort Bend County Sheriff’s Office said a man and his wife, both 34 years old, were found dead inside a home in the 23300 block of Darst Field Trail during a welfare check.
The couple has been identified by the sheriff’s office as Alba Marina Garcia and Gene Mark Hudgson Sjogreen Jr. The sheriff’s office listed her as the victim and him as the suspect.
Neighbors said they learned from the couple’s family members on Monday afternoon that they believed the two were missing after not speaking with them for several days.
Shortly after, Chris Martinez, who lives across the street, said he found out that their bodies were found inside their home.
“That’s unsettling,” Martinez said. “It certainly is, and you just never know what’s going on behind closed doors.”
Neighbors who have lived next to the couple for almost five years are shaken by what happened despite not knowing them well.
