A former Marine, wearing a bloodstained t-shirt, confessed to Florida police early Wednesday that he had killed his parents and the family’s two dogs, the sheriff's deputies said.
Jacob Daniel Price, 30, walked into the lobby of the Crestview Police Department around 4 a.m. Wednesday and confessed his crimes, the Okaloosa County Sheriff’s Office said in a press release.
Deputies went to the family’s home near Crestview, Fla. and found Price’s parents, 51-year-old Jolene Price, and 56-year-old Robert Price, dead inside the master bedroom.
