An Irish couple are found dead at a rented villa in Cullera, near Valencia, after their teenage children discover them in the property’s hot tub. Police say the man and woman, aged 50 and 45, are Irish and the bodies are found in the residential estate of Cap Blanc, about 25 miles from Valencia. The children then alert the owner of the rental property.
Authorities investigate whether the deaths involve foul play, while other possibilities remain open. One report says the case is handled by a local homicide unit, but officials stress that this does not rule out other explanations. Spanish civil guard statements indicate every hypothesis is considered, including accident or suicide. Irish social workers and a psychologist are said to be supporting the children following the discovery. The available reporting also includes differing details on names and how long the bodies were undiscovered before being found.
