A father and his young daughter were found dead at their home in Scotland, prompting an investigation as police seek answers and support for the family.
Concerned teachers called the police when Hope didn’t show up for school. That’s when the authorities discovered the two of them. A post-mortem is being done to find out more.
Police Scotland’s Major Investigation Team is looking into what happened. So far, there’s no sign of anyone else being involved. Detective Chief Inspector Bob Williamson shared that their thoughts are with the family during this tough time.
He mentioned that the family is getting support from specialists. It’s heartbreaking for them, and they need answers. DCI Williamson also asked the public for help. Even small bits of information could be important.
Neighbors are shocked. One said it’s awful to hear about such a tragedy in the community. Another noted that the family kept to themselves, with dark curtains most of the time.
Chief Inspector Elaine McArthur-Kerr acknowledged the impact on the local community. She thanked everyone for their support and encouraged anyone with concerns to reach out.
