Mother and Baby Found Dead With Throats Slit

A 36-year-old mother and her 3-month-old son were found dead with their throats slit at the family's home in Forth Worth, Texas, on Thursday night.

According to People, the bodies of Shanna Riddle Vandewege and her infant child,

Diederick, were both discovered by the 36-year-old victim's husband, Craig Vandewege, after he came home from work Thursday. He immediately called the police, who have since ruled the deaths as homicides.

A GoFundMe page created to help the family pay for funeral expenses claims that the couple recently moved to Texas from Colorado before their child was born. The Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports that Vandewage worked as a registered nurse and was on maternity leave at the time of her death.

"They tried so long to have a baby. She had three miscarriages prior to having one," Mark Riddle, Vandewege's father, told WFAA. "A new mother, a three-month-old baby ... why? Why kill them? There's no reason."

Multiple sources report that Craig Vandewege has been cooperative with police and that he has not been declared a suspect at this time. However, police have confirmed they are currently investigating all possible leads in this terrible tragedy.
