He contacted the couple’s son who contacted his sister. She went to the home with Locke by her side and they went through the unlocked back door.
“I walked through the kitchen and you could smell the food that was still sitting on the counter that had been prepped for dinner but it looked like they were going to eat," Locke said. “She was face down and he was on his back. She was on one side of the coffee table. He was on the other side on his back.”

Clearwater Police officers told neighbors they should not be concerned for their own safety. They also told neighbors they have ruled out any home break-in, robbery or similar crime. The house was well organized when police arrived to investigate.
A neighbor and the victim's daughter discovered the couple dead in their home Saturday and immediately called the police.
Detectives spent 48 hours combing the house on Flushing Avenue for clues.
