On the night of June 4, deputies conducted a welfare check at a home in Fredericksburg, where they found 77-year-old Robert McGuire, 65-year-old Carol Reese and 60-year-old Gregory Powell all deceased from “upper body trauma,” according to the Spotsylvania County Sheriff’s Officer, Front Page Detectives reported.
Investigators were able to identify the victims’ roommate, 23-year-old Alyssa Venable, as the primary suspect in their deaths, RadarOnline.com has learned.
