On June 22, 2024, in Houston, Texas, 65-year-old Leonor Hernandez was killed in her apartment on Hammerly Boulevard along with her daughter, 43-year-old Karen Herrera, and son-in-law, 38-year-old Thomas Kupriakov. Hernandez lived in the apartment with her son, 27-year-old Bryan J. Fernandez, who called 911 about 3:15 p.m. and told dispatchers he had shot three people he said were burglars. Officers found all three victims dead of gunshot wounds. Investigators later concluded there had been no home invasion and that the victims were Fernandez’s family members. Court documents show Fernandez has a 2019 driving-while-intoxicated conviction and served 180 days in jail. The Houston Police Department had responded to two mental health–related calls at the apartment, once the prior year and again earlier in 2024. Fernandez was arrested and charged with capital murder and was denied bond at initial appearances; a follow-up court date was set for July 24. Family members voiced concerns about Fernandez’s mental health and potential for violence.

Does anyone have information about the family or the apartment on Hammerly Boulevard that could help clarify what happened?
