Family Massacre Suspect Still on the Loose

Nothing was found in bodies of water near the Jupiter home where four family members were fatally shot on Thanksgiving.

Police said early Wednesday morning that the search on Tuesday turned up nothing. Authorities are still searching for the suspect, Paul Merhige, who hasn't been seen since the shootings. Authorities also broadcast new photos of him to help in the search.

Police say Merhige killed four relatives - a 6-year-old girl, his 79-year-old aunt and his twin sisters, one of whom was pregnant. A public funeral service will be held Saturday for the girl.

It's not clear exactly who was shot when, but the bloodbath could have been worse with 16 family members present.

Prosecutors issued an arrest warrant Saturday.

Merhige told family members he had been waiting 20 years to kill them, the father of one of the victims said Tuesday.

"He had this whole thing preplanned. His goal was to shoot his sisters and punish his parents," said Jim Sitton, Merhige's cousin-in-law who was at the home of the shootings along with 16 other relatives.
