FRESNO, Calif. (AP) -- Police officers responding to a child custody dispute said they arrived at a home to find nine bodies stacked and intertwined in a pile of clothes, 10 coffins and a 57-year-old man they believe is responsible for the slaughter.
The victims were seven children ranging in age from 1 to 8, a 20-year-old woman and a 17-year-old girl. All were thought to be the children of Marcus Wesson, who surrendered to police Friday.
Reporter Katherine Hare of KPGE TV in Fresno tells KCBS Wesson walked out of the house covered in what appeared to be blood.
The grim scene caused even veteran officers to weep. Police Chief Jerry Dyer wiped tears from his eyes as officers carried the bodies from the home, cradling the youngest ones in their arms.
