Authorities are investigating a triple homicide in Wilmer, where three members of a family, including a pregnant teenager, were found dead at a home on Auble Moody Road.
The victims have been identified as Lisa Gail Fields, 46, her children Keziah Luker, 17, and Thomas Cordelle Jr.,12, according to Mobile County Sheriff Paul Burch, who spoke at a news conference. WDAM 7 reported that Luker was pregnant at the time of her death on April 20.
An 18-month-old child was found inside the home but was not harmed, police said.
The victims had their hands tied behind them with zip ties and flex cuffs and were discovered in separate rooms.
Key Details
The victims’ bodies were discovered after Luker’s boyfriend, who was at work, noticed her phone moving on the Life360 app.
When she did not answer her phone, he asked his father to check on her. His father then found the bodies and called 911, News 5 reported. Burch said the victims were likely killed in the middle of the night.
The victims had their hands tied behind them with zip ties and flex cuffs and were discovered in separate rooms. Fields’ throat was cut and she was stabbed. Cordelle Jr.’s throat was also cut and his body was nearly decapitated, authorities said. Luker, who was about eight months pregnant, was shot, according to AL.com.
No suspects have been named so far in the case. “At this point we do not suspect any domestic or family type situation,” Burch said. The perpetrator appeared to have rummaged through the house. “Someone was searching for something,” Burch said.
Authorities said they suspect that multiple people are involved.

A GoFundMe page has been set up for Fields’ son, Damien, to support him with funeral arrangements and other expenses.
“My dear friend Damien experienced an unimaginable tragedy—his mother, sister, and brother were murdered. Damien is heartbroken and struggling to cope with the sudden and violent loss of his loved ones,” wrote his friend Mackenzie Thomas on the platform. “In the midst of this grief, he is now faced with the overwhelming responsibility of arranging funerals and burials for his family members.”
“Damien is doing his best to stay strong, but the weight of this loss is immense. He is surrounded by friends and loved ones who want to help, but the reality is that the expenses are more than anyone could have prepared for,” Thomas said. “By coming together as a community, we can help ease some of this burden and show Damien that he is not alone,” Thomas added.

Fields’ husband Nathan Fields said he will pay for any information on the suspects. In a Facebook post, he wrote, “Everyone knows we lost three very special people last night. Senseless and uncalled for,” he wrote.
“She was the most beautiful person and so extraordinarily special. A heart of gold and so loving! She was the better part of me and I will never be the same,” he added.
