Motive Remains a Mystery in Quadruple Homicide

With two suspects in custody after a quadruple homicide, police in Troy, New York, say they don't expect to make any more arrests. Nor are police shedding light on a possible motive, disclosing only that one of the two men—James White, 38, and Justin Mann, 24— knew one of the victims, reports the Albany Times Union

Killed were Shanta Myers, 36; her children, 11-year-old Jeremiah and 5-year-old Shanise; and her partner, Brandi Mells, 22. There might have been one more victim, but Myers' 15-year-old son, Isaiah Smith, was out of town when the murders took place.
