FRANKLIN, NC--Macon County Sheriff Lyle Owens announced today that the Dylan family, reported missing last week after no one showed up for church or their jobs, have been found murdered in their Franklin home.
Owens would not give details pertaining to how the Dylan family--Alex, 45, Margaret, 43, and their son Alex Jr, 18--were killed but the house, 1343 Shadowhorse Lane, has been arrested and charged with the murders.
"There were no clues pointing to any possible suspects," Owens said while he standing in the yard watching chains being wrapped around the house's front porch columns. "No one knows anything, arresting the house was the only logical answer."
All neighbors were questioned, but the only thing that could be determined, Owens said, was that the Dylan family had no known enemies.
"It had to be the house. I mean who could be so soulless as to do something this horrific?" neighbor Maxine Alda said. Her husband agreed.
"This is absolutely outrageous, no human could ever be possible of ever doing like this. Only something soulless, like their house, could."
Sitting on a half-acre of land, the three-bedroom, pale green house had shutters that were "delightful" according to neighbors, and views of the Great Smoky Mountains that were "to die for."
The house will be arraigned at the Macon County Courthouse in Franklin next week.
