Our cards this week are Michael Adams, Lachelle Powell, Michael Royal, and Jennifer Leisure,

the 9-10 Jack and Queen of Hearts from New York.

In the late hours of a frigid winter night, a fire tore through their Rochester home.

But when the smoke cleared, investigators realized

this wasn't a tragic accident. It was a quadruple homicide, one of the most brutal murder

scenes they had ever encountered. But somehow, nearly 10 years later, it remains unsolved. But maybe

we can help change that. I'm Ashley Flowers,

and this is the deck.

Thank you. The Sunday, January 10th, 2016 was a freezing cold night in Rochester, New York.

So the streets were quiet when a woman named Mary Royal got back to her home on Leighton Avenue just before midnight.

She'd been gone for a couple of days staying at her daughter's place a few miles away to help out

with her grandkids. Everything had been fine when she left. But as Mary walked toward the house,

something immediately put her on edge. The front door was open.

And that didn't make sense because her son, who lived there with her, Michael Royal,

was always careful about locking up.

She'd always be like, did you lock the door, mom?

Did you lock the door?

And so I knew something wasn't right.

And it wasn't just that open door that made her uneasy. Normally, their dog, Jacks, would go wild the second anyone came near their

enclosed front porch. But that night, nothing. The whole place was dark and still. And in a

multifamily house that usually bustled with people, that was totally out of the ordinary.

You see, it wasn't just Mary and Michael who lived in the upstairs apartment with Jacks.
