A University of Iowa student recently called the cops and reported that his family was killed by 'intruders'.
The police arrived to find Alexander Jackson shot in his foot and his parents and sister killed.
According to Jackson, intruders came into his home and killed his family. He received a shot n the foot as a result of a struggle with the intruder. The police did not notice any signs of burglary and were very suspicious of Jackson's story. Police believe that Jackson killed his family because his father recently told him to "find a job or move out".
He has been charged with 3 counts of first-degree murder. Jackson's next court hearing is scheduled for June 25.
