Alabama Triple Homicide: Mother, Pregnant Teen and 12-Year-Old Found Bound and Killed

Investigators say evidence points to more than one attacker.

Overview

  • Deputies found the family bound in separate rooms at their Wilmer home Monday, identifying Lisa Gail Fields, 46, her 17-year-old pregnant daughter Keziah Arionna Luker, and her 12-year-old son Thomas Cordelle Jr.
  • Mobile County Sheriff Paul Burch said Fields was stabbed, Luker was shot, and Thomas suffered a throat wound so deep he was nearly decapitated.
  • Investigators say the house was ransacked and the assailants appeared to bring zip ties or flex cuffs, which they believe indicates multiple attackers searching for something.
  • The bodies were discovered after Luker’s boyfriend tracked her phone and alerted family, and an 18-month-old child in the home was found unharmed.
  • Sheriff’s officials report “positive leads” but no arrests, as friends launch a GoFundMe for funeral costs and the children’s father offers a $1,000 reward for tips.
