A devastating murder-suicide in Nebraska has left a community reeling and a family shattered. On May 10, what was supposed to be a celebration of high school graduation turned into unthinkable tragedy when authorities discovered the bodies of a mother, father, and their two teenage sons—all fatally stabbed inside their home.
At approximately 9:45 a.m., the Dawson County Sheriff’s Office responded to a call at a residence near Johnson Lake, Nebraska. Inside, they found 42-year-old Jeremy Koch, his wife Bailey Koch, 41, and their sons Hudson, 18, and Asher, 16. All had sustained knife wounds.
