In order to not call the incident a murder-suicide, the attorney pointed out that the investigation is underway.

"All I can tell you is there was a gun on the premises, and it was apparent to all those that went in that all three members of the family were dead," Morrissey said, adding that the handgun was found near Rakesh Kamal.

"This is an event to remember that the domestic violence crisis crosses all economic and social classes," Morrissey said.

"For anyone, especially around the holidays, if you feel unsafe in a relationship, I want to remind people that there is help out there, safety planning is available and can talk through your specific situation. This is very unfortunate and our heart goes out to the entire Kamal family," he said during the press conference.

Further investigation is underway. (ANI)
