Anaheim PD Sgt. Shane Carringer said it was a "pretty extensive crime scene with a lot of physical evidence," adding that it was a "pretty violent crime scene."
"These young men were just starting to live out their dreams and find their places in the world. But an intruder who stalked them and then slashed them to death in their own home interrupted those dreams," said Orange County District Attorney Todd Spitzer. "The callous way that two young lives were ended cannot be ignored and we will do everything we can to ensure justice is served."
