South Carolina authorities on Friday morning made a grisly discovery inside a family’s stately Greer home.

The Spartanburg Sheriff’s Office responded to the home on Marilyn Perry Lane after receiving a call from a neighbor. 

“Upon arrival, there was an initial language barrier, but once that was resolved, deputies entered the residence and found three deceased individuals inside the home,” the sheriff’s office said in a press release. “At this preliminary stage, this agency doesn’t believe there is any threat to the public.”

The local coroner’s office confirmed the identities of the three deceased individuals to FOX Carolina as 9-year-old Samantha Samarel, 45-year-old Lina Maria Samarel, and 54-year-old Richard Samarel.

Lina Samarel’s professional biography notes that she is “a psychiatric-mental health nurse practitioner and a family nurse practitioner” who has “experience in a variety of healthcare settings, including outpatient psychiatry for adults and adolescents with mental illness and health and wellness services.” Her Facebook profile indicated she previously worked for the Department of Veterans Affairs.

“During her free time, Lina enjoys spending time with her husband and three children. Lina also enjoys reading and learning about new and relevant issues in Psychiatry and mental health,” her profile on GrowTherapy.com states.

The coroner’s office and sheriff’s office are investigating the case.
