Yes.
Any crime like this- where people are held hostage, tortured, and murdered in this manner would be investigated regardless of level of wealth of the victims.
Crimes like this have happened here in Rochester (just havent made national news like this) and have had victims who were very impoverished, and the local law enforcement agencies have had a full court press response to finding the killer(s) and getting justice for those persons victimized.
Honestly a lot of rhetoric about "rich white people get helped first" is very untrue.
Home invasions are becoming more prevalent. In my small rural community - we had an older couple tortured, set on fire all for a robbery motive. Three under 20 yr olds and one 35 year old from 300 miles away. The older guy was a distant cousin who hadn't seen the couple in 20 years. Since that time - there were two others in the region.
