Florida Father Stabs Teenage Twins to Death in Horrific Murder-Suicide
WLT Report ^ | October 05, 2026 | Kaley

It’s not just the deranged mothers; it’s the lunatic fathers, too.

In yet another highly unsettling case of a parent murdering their own children, a father in Florida reportedly killed his teenage twins before taking his own life.

63-year-old Ivan Montiel Roa was found dead along with his teenage son and daughter inside their Orlando apartment last week.

Both of the twins’ bodies had multiple stab wounds.

Here are the disturbing details:

A horrifying family tragedy unfolded in Central Florida after authorities say a father stabbed his 17-year-old twins to death before taking his own life.

Ivan Montiel Roa, 63, is believed to have murdered his teenage children, Carlo Montiel Infantino and Melanie Montiel Infantino, inside the family’s Orlando-area residence before dying by suicide, according to FOX 35 Orlando.

Police made the gruesome discovery after neighbors called in a welfare check on the apartment because they had not seen any of the family members for over a week.

Fox 51 reported:

Deputies responded Sept. 30 to a residence in the 1200 block of Courtney Chase Circle for a well-being check.

When deputies entered the residence, they found twins Carlo Montiel Infantino and Melanie Montiel dead in the living room. According to investigators, both teens had multiple stab wounds.

Deputies also found their father, Ivan Montiel Roa, dead in the master bedroom, investigators said.

What they’re saying: “At this time, detectives believe Ivan murdered Carlo and Melanie and then committed suicide,” the Sheriff’s Office said in a news release.

At this time, authorities have not released a motive.

However, we know that Montiel Roa’s wife died earlier this year and that the family was originally from Venezuela.

He also posted bizarre social media posts about conspiracy theories and the New World Order.

From the New York Post:

According to public records, Montiel Roa’s wife and Carlo and Melanie’s mother died in June. The family was from Venezuela, according to her obituary.

Montiel Roa was a realtor, according to his Facebook. He also had a construction business that was dissolved on Sept. 25, the Orlando Sentinel reported.

He had an unsettling social media presence – reposting wild conspiracy theories and sentiments about a “new world order” on Facebook.

“Introduce a little anarchy, alter the established order and everything turns into chaos. I am an agent of chaos,” he wrote in a bizarre December 2025 post, seemingly quoting a scene from the 2008 film “The Dark Knight.”

This post shared some more photos of the family:

Breaking: Tom Hanks look alike Venezuelan refugee Ivan Montiel Roa, just stabs his twins to death, and then takes his own life less than an hour from where we live.

A refugee “immigrant” from Orlando just murdered his 17 year-old twins,then took his life—right here in Central Florida close to where we live on the coast.

His young wife died this summer.

Now many are wondering if he killed her too

Thoughts?!

Orlando Sentinel published that he’s a conspiracy theorist.

And he’s into New World order, and this refuge/ immigrant is conservative.

What do you think?

They definitely concentrated on his conspiracy theory alleged status and I missed if they mentioned about him being an immigrant which may or may not be legal.

I’m not sure how he got permission to come in, but probably Joe Biden welcomed him with open arms. Biden purposely opened the border letting 10,000,000+ in hoping to create chaos. And obviously a lot of carnage.

These types of tragic, horrific family murders are becoming far too prevalent in our country.

What in the world is going on?

Um, we pretty much do that here every day! ;)

If Dear Old Dad thought this would bring them all back together in the Afterlife, he was mistaken. He’ll be missing the Family Reunion. :(

That photo... not a happy family. I can tell he was a controlling SOB just by looking at it. Those kids were miserable and he looks happy knowing they were miserable.

Evil seems to be rising up more and more these days. If anyone doubts that we are in the end times.... think again. And imagine how bad or how much worse it’s going to get. This is our reality now and no place is “safe”. Plan, prepare and act accordingly.

He didn’t want to eventually go back to Venezuela.

Trump is thawing that possibility.

Usually it’s the mother that does the killing. I seem to be reading about this scenario a lot lately.

“Experts emphasize that while these acts are rare, untreated mental illness and crushing stress are key risk factors.”

Recently:

“Spartanburg mother in jail after being accused of stabbing her children 50 times”

“Cibelle Savella (Texas, September 2026): Shot and killed her 4-year-old daughter, Vivian, hours after losing a custody battle with the child’s father.”

“Corie A. Walsh (Illinois, September 2026): Charged with first-degree murder after her 2-year-old son was found hanging.”

Justine May (South Carolina, 2026): Jailed on charges of homicide after her two daughters (ages 15 months and 33 months) died from starvation.

Isabel Martinez (Georgia, 2026): Charged with multiple counts of murder for allegedly stabbing her husband and four of her five children.

And, of course, Lindsay Clancy...

Perhaps he thought he did. From the article: "Tom Hanks look alike Venezuelan refugee Ivan Montiel Roa...". Maybe he thought he had Buffy Wilson style hormones...

“That photo... not a happy family”

Agreed. The kids have a “will somebody please save us” look on their faces.
