On January 27, 2026, 13-year-old Michael Kilpatrick, his 15-year-old brother Cameron, and their mother Jacqueline Neill were found fatally shot inside their Worden Street home in Grand Rapids, Michigan. The initial 911 call came about 7:45 a.m. from Neill’s fiancé, 44-year-old Charles Broomfield, who told police a story of a home invasion and said two armed intruders had killed the three family members while sparing him and his 5-year-old son, who was found unharmed.

Investigators noted inconsistencies between Broomfield’s frantic 911 call and his calm demeanor when officers arrived. Ballistics testing showed shell casings recovered in the living room, where Neill was killed, and upstairs, where the boys were found, were fired from the same firearm. During an interview with police, Broomfield confessed to shooting Neill and the two boys. He was arrested and charged with three counts of premeditated murder and three counts of using a firearm in the commission of a felony; he was denied bond and a probable cause hearing was set for early February. The community and the boys’ school district expressed deep sorrow over their deaths.

Does anyone have information about the family or the events leading up to that morning that could help investigators?
