The police were called to Olalde's home after a report of a man harming his family and threatening to kill himself.

They found the bodies of the victims in a bathroom and found multiple spent cartridge casings and blood spatter on the floor and surfaces.

Olalde pointed a gun at a coworker and said he had killed his family because they were cannibals and were going to eat him.

He was jailed on $10 million bond and the investigation is ongoing.
