A chilling 911 call revealed the motive behind the murder-suicide inside a $1.5 million Utah home.

Olin Johnson, 57, reportedly carried out a murder-suicide that claimed the life of his wife, Kerilyn Johnson, 52, and his own. The details of the incident were revealed in a distressing 911 call made by one of their six children, who discovered the bodies at their family home. During the eight-minute 911 call, the child indicated the family was experiencing turmoil.

“I think my dad killed my mom, but then he killed himself,” one of the children said. “There’s been a lot of drama recently in the household. Just within the past four days.” The caller also hinted at the previous disturbances within the household. (RELATED: Florida Firefighter And Wife Die In Murder-Suicide After Eerie Facebook Post)
