Based on them saying it didn't involve gunshots, I'd also rule out they were stabbed or other violent crimes or why would they hide it?

I see two possible scenarios:

1) Benoit's wife died due to illness she reportedly had Saturday and when Benoit came home to find that, he committed suicide. However this doesn't explain anything about his son.

2) Something happened and Benoit's son was killed, Benoit came home to find out and in rage killed his wife, then took his own life.

There is the third option of a break-in/murder but supposedly they live in an area which had 0 murder investigations all of 2006 and practically no crime. Also if this was the case it would have been stated I'd believe.
