CLOVER, S.C. — The names of three people who were found dead inside a home in Clover have been released.
Thomas Gardner, 45, died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound, according to the York County Coroner's Office.
The causes of death for 69-year-old Susan Gardner and 77-year-old Ruth Allred were not determined.
Autopsies will be performed at the Medical University of South Carolina.
Susan Gardner was Thomas Gardner's mom; Ruth Allred was Thomas Gardner's aunt and Susan Gardner's sister, the coroner said.
The bodies were discovered Wednesday in a home at 331 Griggs Rd. near Courtland Dr. on July 31. Officials were called to the home to perform a welfare check, the second in a month, according to officials.
Deputies previously said it was possible the case was a double-murder suicide, but the investigation was ongoing.
