Post mortem results on one of the 3 bodies – 15 year-old Alison Marimon-Herrera – show the teenager was strangled to death.

Results for her mother, 37-year-old Giselle Marimon-Herrera show there is also a “strong possibility” that she too was strangled.

The body of a 38 year-old man, also discovered at the property, is believed to be her partner but has yet to be identified.

Police say they believe the mother and daughter were still alive in the early hours of Sunday but family members had been unable to contact them since.
