Man met California girl online, killed her mom, grandparents before abducting her, police say

https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2022-11-27/triple-homicide-in-el-monte-connected-to-attempted-teenager-abduction-police-say

Edwards traveled from Virginia to Riverside, where he parked his vehicle in a neighbor’s driveway and walked to the teen’s home, officials said. The exact cause and manner of the three deaths are under investigation, but police believe Edwards murdered the teen’s grandfather, grandmother and mother before taking the teen to his vehicle and driving away, according to officials.

The teen was not harmed.

Edwards was formerly employed by the Virginia State Police and more recently worked for the Washington County Sheriff’s Office in Virginia, Railsback said.

Apparently this was a wonderful family. Loved by many. So tragic.
