Investigators with the Santa Cruz Sheriff’s Office are looking into the discovery of two bodies in Boulder Creek Cemetery Saturday morning — and a possible double suicide.
Investigators believe the unidentified elderly couple lived near the cemetery, 299 Harmon St., and say they found a handgun and suicide note was found near the bodies.
The two bodies were found close together in a bloated, decomposing state by a volunteer caretaker. Detectives believe the bodies had been there for about a week before they were discovered. The Sheriff’s Department hasn’t released a statement except to say they do not suspect foul play and are working to contact the couple’s family members.
