SEATTLE (AP) — A doctor found stabbed in a Seattle apartment this week will be held in connection with the murders of his partner and their 2-year-old son.
A King County District Court judge on Saturday determined there was enough evidence to hold 39-year-old endocrinologist Louis Chen in custody on investigation of two counts of aggravated murder. Chen remained hospitalized with injuries that are described as non-life threatening.
Prosecuting Attorney’s Office spokesman Dan Donohoe tells The Seattle Times (http://bit.ly/nvcx6m) that evidence presented to the judge will be released on Monday. He says prosecutors have until Tuesday to file charges against Chen.
Officers were responding Thursday to a report of an injured man when they found Chen and his 29-year-old partner in the living room. The toddler was found dead in a bathroom.
