Police positively identified two of the four people found dead inside a burning Northwest D.C. home Thursday as a prominent and well-liked husband and wife who lived at the residence.
Police said the two victims were Savvas Savopoulos, the president of a local construction company and his wife, Amy. Police tentatively identified the other two victims as the couple’s 10-year-old son, Philip and a housekeeper.

Bizarre case. It looks like the Feds are already involved. I hope they catch the bad guys soon.
