Whittier, CA


The community is in shock tonight.

We now know the names of the three Whittier residents who died in an apparent "murder-suicide" yesterday afternoon in a quiet well keep neighborhood..


The residents on Janine Drive are coming together in Prayer and are comforting each other as they come to  grips of the magnitude of the horrific afternoon that ended in the worst possible manner.


Today, the Los Angeles County Coroner official announced that the three victims who died as members of one family.  They are:
  • Raul Escobedo, age 67
  • Debra Escobedo, age 60
  • Mario Escobedo, age 31
An intense investigation is now underway by members of law enforcement. 

Debbie Escobedo was a 1st grade teacher at Maggee Elementary in the city of Pico Rivera. All three family members lived in the same neighborhood for as long as anyone can remember.


Their house on Janine is located across from Murphy Ranch Elementary School and is nearby La Serna High School.  Both campuses were placed on lock-down and were evacuated.


My heart goes out to the Escobedo Family and to all of their loved ones. There are many unanswered questions about motive and cause.  I hope everyone who reads this post, can pause and say a Prayer for this entire family and for the community who loved them. 

If you have a special memory or thought about the Escobedo Family,  please feel free to share it here in my comment section below.  More details later. I hope something positive can come out of this situation.

Tonight, is a time to reflect.
