NEWSCASTER :
Tragedy has struck

once again at 112 Ocean Avenue

in Amityville, Long Island,

the infamous house

where Ronnie DeFeo killed his entire family

with a shotgun, more than four decades ago.

Police are questioning

17-year-old Belle Walker

as a person of interest in the

brutal murders of her aunt Candice,

her mother Joan, and the death

of her brother James.

Miss Walker claims that her

brother committed the crimes,

and her story has been corroborated

by her seven-year-old sister Juliet.

A spokesman for the Amityville Police

Department said that forensic evidence

does point to James as the killer.

His fingerprints were found

on the murder weapon.

But Dr. Ken Milton refutes that claim,

stating that James Walker was

too weak to get out of bed,

let alone stalk his

entire family with a shotgun.

For two years prior to the murders,

James was in a coma, a vegetative state.

Is this house a source of evil,

- as legend suggests?

- (AMPLIFIED HEARTBEAT)

Did it awaken and possess

James Walker or his sister Belle?

For now, the police are left with

a horrific unsolved crime,

and Amityville, Long Island,

is once again the center of shock and horror.
