FRESNO —
Police arrested a woman for investigation in the murders of her husband, mother-in-law and sister-in-law at separate Fresno homes in what was first thought to be a double murder-suicide.
Nancy K. Morris, 28, was taken into custody Thursday after the bodies were discovered. Detectives offered no motive for the killings. Police said there was “a recent history of family problems” involving Morris, her husband William, 34, William Morris’ mother, Jessie Morris, 61, and his sister, Joyce Ann Crawford, 37.
