Police have released new details about a mother and her two young daughters who were found dead in a small Maine town last weekend.
Mechanic Falls Police Chief Jeffrey Goss said in a press release Thursday that his department responded to an address on Highland Avenue on July 27 at 3:30 p.m. to check the residence for a U-Haul truck that had been reported stolen after it was not returned.
During their investigation, police discovered that the resident, an adult female, was dead inside her home. Officers entered the home and found two children, who were also dead, inside. The state medical examiner’s office conducted autopsies and determined that the two young girls, identified as 7-year-old Hope West and 11-year-old Harmony West, were victims of homicide and that the adult female, 37-year-old Jennifer Barney, died as a result of suicide.
