A Phoenix family was found dead after a call from one of the sons raised the alarm. On August 8, 2021, 56-year-old Irene Lujan, her husband Lewis Lujan, 63, and their 30-year-old son Matthew Lujan were discovered deceased inside their home after officers conducted a welfare check. Irene worked for the Arizona Department of Economic Security and was remembered for a bubbly personality and love of games.

The welfare check followed a report from another son, Brandon Michael Lujan, who went to a hospital with an ankle injury and told medical staff he had killed his family the previous night. Investigators say Brandon had been kicked out of the home beforehand; his daughters in a nearby car told police they heard him say he was going to kill them before he entered the house. Authorities allege an argument escalated, and Brandon fatally shot Matthew, then shot his parents after they lunged at him.

Does anyone have information about the family or what happened that night that could help clarify what led to this tragedy?
