Motive still a mystery for man held in slaying of his 3 kids
SACRAMENTO, Calif. — The father suspected of killing his three children in California has been interviewed by investigators, though they still aren’t offering a motive for the slayings, authorities said Friday.
Investigators talked with Robert William Hodges, 32, after he was found near midnight Thursday parked about seven miles from the apartment where police found the three children following a domestic violence call. Police previously said Hodges was 33.
“I don’t know what they gleaned from that interview. I don’t know what the motive was,” said West Sacramento police Sgt. Roger Kinney.
Hodges is being held for arraignment Monday on suspicion of three counts of murder in the slayings of 11-year-old Kelvin Hodges, 9-year-old Julie Hodges and Lucas Hodges, nearly eight months.
