Why Did Matthew Coleman Murder His Children?
When he allegedly kidnapped their two children, a 2-year-old boy, and a 10-month-old daughter, in the family’s vehicle, Coleman, 40, of Santa Barbara, was reported missing by his wife in August 2021.
Coleman arrived at the City Express Hotel in the beach town of Rosarito after crossing into Mexico. Authorities claim that he stayed there two days before taking Kaleo and Roxy to a neighboring ranch and shooting them to death with a fishing pistol.
The Baja California Attorney General’s Office published a security video showing Coleman and kids checking into a hotel in Rosarito, Baja California, according to the Find My iPhone function. The bodies of their kids were found near a bush and they were shot with a fishing gun.
