The tapes also show him as the one driving the horse trailer into the entrance gate and then shooting the tires.
The police also disclosed that the body of the male adult found next to Mrs. Foster is indeed Christopher Foster, but the cause of his death is not yet known. The third body has not been positively identified, but it was found in the 15-yr.-old girl’s bedroom and they are confident that it will be identified as Kirsten.
They are confident that Mr. Foster shot his wife and daughter, then went out to the stables where he shot the horses and then set fire to the stables and the garage filled with cars. Then he went back inside the home where he set fires inside the house designed to completely destroy all the property before he went back to where his wife’s body lay and then killed himself.

Currently they are discounting any criminal connection to the murders and arson, but they will nonetheless be conducting an intensive investigation into Foster’s complicated financial affairs.
Today’s Telegraph has a good report on the latest chapter in this STORY.
