The family of one of the victims in the July 29 quadruple homicide in Lake County has started a GoFundMe page to cover the costs of burial and a funeral service.
“We learned that our grandson Matthew Wilson was part of a terrible tragedy where 4 precious lives were taken,” the family wrote on the fundraising page the day after the killings. “He is our grandson. “Matthew has just within the last month and half started a new job but he has no burial insurance.”
Wilson was one of the victims in a July 29 quadruple killing that led to a week-long manhunt for the suspect, Austin Robert Drummond.
On July 29, witnesses said they saw someone in an SUV leave a child in a car seat on a front lawn in Tigrett, according to theĀ Dyer County Sheriff’s Office. The sheriff’s office announced that investigators had identified the child and were looking to speak with Wilson, the child’s father, and Adrianna Williams, the child’s mother.
But late on July 29, Wilson, Williams and two other family membersĀ were found deadĀ in Lake County.
Drummond was apprehended and arrested on Aug. 5. He is facing several charges, including first-degree murder, aggravated kidnapping, and being a felon in possession of a firearm.
