California authorities made a horrific discovery Friday while responding to a report of a gas leak at a Lancaster home.
The decapitated bodies of a 12-year-old boy and his 13-year-old sister were found at their home at around 8 a.m. and their father was arrested at the scene.
Maurice Taylor Sr. now stands accused of the grisly murders of his children and is being held on a $2 million bond.
Taylor was a “mellow” personal coach who since the Covid outbreak stayed at home and virtually gave classes to his clients.
One of them said that Taylor didn’t send her a Zoom link for their session and that was suspicious.
“I knew they weren’t out of town. They didn’t have money to travel,” she said.
Mayor R.Rex Parris said that the lockdown was to blame for such horrific crimes that hit the country.
“The social fabric of the country and the world has been shredded, and we are starting to see the aftermath,” he said.
“What I’m seeing is more and more people feeling desperate, and that can only have one result.”
