Father kills son with autism, 10, family dog and self in apparent murder-suicide in home where missing daughter, 20, was also found dead
A tragic murder-suicide unfolded in Broken Arrow, Oklahoma, where police say 58-year-old Rodney Shippy fatally shot his 10-year-old autistic son, Logan, and the family dog before turning the gun on himself.
Authorities discovered the bodies Wednesday afternoon while conducting a welfare check after relatives reported Shippy’s daughter, Alyssa, missing. The 20-year-old’s body was later found inside the disheveled home, and investigators are working to determine her cause of death.
The deaths mark the latest in a series of devastating losses for the Shippy family. In 2022, Rodney’s wife Lisa, 41, took her own life at the same residence. Just months later, Lisa’s mother was murdered by her husband in a separate incident nearby.
Relatives said Rodney became increasingly isolated after his wife’s death, and the home had fallen into severe neglect. Public records show he was facing foreclosure on the property, owing $135,000 in unpaid mortgage debt.
Loved ones described Logan as a “sweet, eager-to-learn boy” and Alyssa as “a bright light in this world.” A GoFundMe campaign has been launched to help cover their funeral expenses.
