WHITE PLAINS, N.Y. (AP) - A nuclear power plant worker suspected of strangling his wife and daughter and then killing himself had been placed on leave from his job to deal with mental problems, the plant owner said Tuesday.
Steven Lessard, an engineer at Unit 2 of the Indian Point Energy Center, killed his wife Kathy, 48, and 14-year-old daughter Linda in their bedrooms, then killed himself, state police said Monday. It was not clear how Lessard died, police said.
Police found the bodies Monday after being called by relatives concerned that they could not reach the family by telephone. Authorities said the killings apparently happened late Thursday or early Friday.
