Police believe Edison Lopez fatally stabbed his fiancee Aleksandra (pictured) and two sons Lucian, 3, and 1-year-old Calvin, before slitting his own throat inside their fourth-floor apartment on W. 86th St. near Riverside Drive on Monday, Aug. 28, 2023.

Before Edison Lopez, 41, fatally stabbed his fiancée and two sons, he was about to move to Westchester for a new job. He had to move out of his apartment, where he grew up, by Friday — but the apartment at the new job site wasn’t ready yet. The NYPD said they’re looking into whether this had anything to do with the brutal slaughter of his family.

“If you take away the humaneness of it, you find ways to justify the behavior in the sense of, ‘I know this is wrong, but I can justify it to make it OK,’” Coleman said.
