The killings of five people at a Halloween party remain unsolved more than a week later as a victim's family clashed with the company in the aftermath of violence at an Airbnb rental home in the San Francisco Bay Area.
Police have not addressed a possible motive in the fatal shootings in Orinda that sent more than 100 terrified partygoers running for safety, nor have they announced any arrests, though local media has reported that the violence may have stemmed from a fight between two rival groups.
Authorities have not addressed the reports and Contra Costa County Sheriff's Office spokesman Jimmy Lee didn't return a phone message Friday seeking comment.
Airbnb has announced it will pay funeral expenses for the five victims and cover counseling bills for their families, The San Francisco Chronicle reported.

Orinda is a small quiet upper class community just east of Oakland, CA through the Caldecott Tunnel. For a while Stephan Curry lived there. Over time it has become a target for crime because of the commuter nature of the residents and the ease of access because of the seclusion of the residences.
On Halloween, and AirBnB party was the scene of a shooting where 5 were killed. Orinda is NOT where this kind of thing was supposed to happen.
I do not blame AirBnB for this. But as this goes forward, somebody will.
Mighty white of them.
