A former Marine has been charged with murdering his parents after he turned himself into police and confessed to killing them both, along with two family dogs in Florida.

Jacob Daniel Price, 30, walked into the Crestview Police Department wearing a bloody shirt in the early hours of Wednesday morning, insisting he had a confession to make.

Price arrived at the station shortly after 4am, telling officers he’d shot his mother and father – as well as his family’s two dogs – as they slept in their beds at their Crestview home.

When deputies arrived at 6269 Equine Drive they found 51-year-old Jolene Price and 56-year-old Robert Price deceased in the master bedroom of the home with what appeared to be fatal gunshot wounds to their heads.

Price had been living at the home with his parents at the time of the incident, a spokesperson for the Okaloosa County Sheriff’s Office confirmed.

Price served as a field operator in the U.S. Marine Corps from 2009 until 2013, and was deployed abroad twice from 2010 to 2011 under Operation Enduring Freedom, the government's official name for the war on terror in response to the September 11 attacks

Price appeared before a judge on Thursday morning where he was ordered to be held in the Okaloosa County Jail without bond. Assistant State Attorney Bill Bishop told reporters his office are yet to discuss whether they'll be seeking the death penalty or not, citing unspecified 'aggravating and possible mitigating circumstances'

A motive for the brutal killings has not yet been released by police. Autopsies on Jolene Price and Robert Price will be carried out by the First Judicial Circuit Medical Examiner's Office this week, the sheriff’s office said.

Two deceased dogs were also found inside the premises. One dog was found in the bed with the Price’s parents and the other was found dead on the dining room floor.

Both of them had been killed by gunfire, police said.

Two German Shepherds were also found inside the home but were unharmed.

They were handed over to Panhandle Animal Welfare Society (PAWS) and a family member has reportedly come forward offering to take the dogs in.

Price has been charged with two counts of premeditated murder and two counts of aggravated animal cruelty.

He received several commendations during his time serving, including the Afghanistan Campaign Medal, the National Defense Service Medal and the Global War on Terrorism Service Medal, and several more, the NY Post reported.

A spokesperson for the Marine Corps told NWF Daily News Price left the service at the rank of private which is indicative that ‘the character of his service was incongruent with Marine Corps’ expectations and standards.’

According to the Okaloosa County Sheriff’s Office and the Crestview Police Department, the arrest was Price’s first in Okaloosa County.

A plea date has been set for December 17 with a trial to begin on February 17, according to court records.
