A coroner’s post-mortem examination determined the cause of death for both Barry and Honey Sherman was ligature neck compression, consistent with strangulation. The bodies were found in the basement area near the indoor pool, and police classified the deaths as suspicious before later confirming they were victims of a targeted double homicide. :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}
