A woman and her teenage son were stabbed to death Thursday night on the Colville Reservation, the tribe announced.
Laura Dick, 38, and her son Anthony Vieira, 17, were stabbed in their necks by Dick’s boyfriend in her home, court documents obtained by KXLY say.
The boyfriend, Damien Todd Martinez, called 911 on himself after the killing, KXLY reported. Police arrived on scene to find Martinez covered in blood. He reportedly told officers that he suspected Dick was cheating on him but had no proof.
Dick worked as the clerk for the Colville Tribal Court and leaves behind at least one other child.
“Our community is grieving deeply today after the loss of two of our own in what appears to be a senseless act of violence,” reservation chairman Jarred-Michael Erickson said in a Friday stateme
