On June 20, 2023, Phoenix police responding to a welfare check at a home near 14th Place and Rose Lane found three people dead: 78-year-old William Lammers, his 81-year-old wife Betty Lammers, and their 50-year-old son Lance Lammers. Preliminary findings from the police investigation determined the incident to be a murder-suicide, with investigators concluding Lance shot both parents before turning the gun on himself.

Lance is the only person identified as responsible for William and Betty’s deaths; no arrests have been made because he was deceased at the scene. The neighborhood and family were left reeling by the sudden, fatal violence in what had been a quiet household.

Does anyone have information about the Lammers family or what led up to that morning?
