Long Island Man Kills Four Family Members, Then Himself Over Home Sale

Joseph DeLucia Jr. believed he would be left homeless after his mother's death, leading to a tragic murder-suicide.

The incident occurred in Syosset, New York, just days after the funeral of DeLucia's 95-year-old mother.
DeLucia, 59, used a shotgun to kill his brother, two sisters, and a niece before taking his own life.
Family members had assured DeLucia he would be provided for, but he feared displacement from the family home.
Neighbors and police noted DeLucia had past mental health issues and had expressed distress over the home sale.
Authorities are urging the public to report signs of mental distress to potentially prevent similar tragedies.
