Three bodies were discovered at a house in Washington state, prompting an investigation as authorities seek suspects in the murders.
Family members who hadn’t heard from their relatives since Christmas Day alerted the Clallam County Sheriff’s Office, which sent deputies to check the welfare of the relatives.
In an update, the office said that the trio was identified as Darrell Iverson, 57, and his son Jordan Iverson, 27. The third body, a female, was later identified as Tiffany May, Jordan Iverson’s 26-year-old girlfriend who was believed to be living at the house. She was found inside a locked outbuilding.
All three of the victims had been shot.
“Deputies have information that indicates the last time people talked with the Iversons was on December 26, 2018. We are asking for the public’s assistance by sharing any information they may have that may help in this matter.”
“In law enforcement terms, we call this a rather complex scene,” Benedict said. “There are shell casings all around and there’s a whole lot to process.”
Still, “There’s nothing in anyone’s criminal history that would lead to this,” he said.
Friends Respond
Friends and neighbors said they were unnerved by the shootings.He said that Darrell Iverson was one of the first people he met when he moved to the rural area.
“As soon as we moved in he came over and offered any information, ‘Need help with anything? Let me know, and I'll be more than willing to come over and help,’ so he was really good about that,” Lovik said.
“What’s really been bothering me as a neighbor is knowing they'd been lying over there for a couple days. And that upsets me. I think good neighbors should know what’s going on around each other, and I kind of feel like I failed there.”
Sara Iverson, a close friend of the Iverson family, told King 5 that Jordan Iverson had overcome opiate addiction to become a talented mechanic and was close to his father, who owned a log truck business.
She said that Darrell Iverson was a hard worker and that May was “like a bundle of sunshine, she always had the biggest smile on her face.”
