A Las Vegas woman is facing multiple murder charges Saturday in the shooting deaths of her three roommates, who lived in what authorities described as a "problem house."

Christine Sanchez, 47, is currently being held in a county jail on three counts of open murder with a deadly weapon. According to Las Vegas police, she had been in an ongoing dispute with her roommates. When the victims returned to the home Friday afternoon, all four got into an altercation.

It was at that point Sanchez pulled out a handgun and shot the trio multiple times, police said.

Responding officers found two men in one bedroom and a woman in a second bedroom. All of them were pronounced dead at the scene.

Their names were not released.

Police Lt. Dan McGrath told the Las Vegas Sun that seven to eight people may have been inside the house, which he described as a "crash house" where people came and went.

Meth seems more likely
Six of one, half dozen of the other, so to speak.

obama did it with a pen and a phone. Ask the many innocent Mexicans dead from guns he ordered ATF to donate to the cartels.

It’s exactly the opposite of a closed murder.

And it's especially serious when committed with a deadly weapon.

Apparently it is a relatively new term that they use when uncertain as to the degree of the murder they can get a jury to convict on. Instead of charging for the highest they feel they can get.
