Suspicious deaths of New Jersey politico, teacher still weighing on family: 'Hard to remain encouraged'
Fox News
The deaths of a prominent New Jersey couple discovered after a suspicious house fire at their suburban Garden State home remain shrouded in mystery nearly eight years later.
"The evidence we do have strongly suggests it was a double homicide rather than a murder suicide" Stephanie Pagones is a Digital Reporter for FOX Business and Fox News. Story tips can be sent to stephanie.pagones@fox.com and on Twitter: @steph_pagones.
Just days earlier, at the end of September 2014, his parents — beloved teacher Joyce Sheridan, 69, and her 73-year-old husband, Republican politico John Sheridan — were discovered repeatedly stabbed inside their bedroom, which had then been set on fire with the couple barricaded inside.
One of the weapons used in the stabbing was nowhere to be found. And a fire poker was inside the room even though they have no fireplace upstairs.
