Sheena Sparks, 35, and her husband Matthew Sparks, 35, were found dead from gunshot wounds in their home at Walnut Ridge Mobile Home Park on Cypress Drive in Jackson, Michigan, on March 1, 2020. The Blackman-Leoni Department of Public Safety opened a homicide investigation and said they did not believe there was an ongoing threat to the community. No arrests or publicly named suspects have been announced.

Friends and neighbors described Sheena and Matthew as devoted parents to their two sons, Tyler and Lucas, and as high school sweethearts active in the local hockey communities in Lansing and Jackson. After the couple’s deaths the boys were placed in Sheena’s parents’ care and local hockey groups organized fundraisers to support the family.

What can readers who knew the Sparks family or who were in that neighborhood in late February and early March 2020 add to help investigators find answers?
