EAST FALMOUTH, Mass. (MyFoxBoston.com) – Two people were brutally murdered in an East Falmouth home, and now, there are reports that the victims were targeted.

Crystal Perry and Kristopher Williams were found dead Wednesday at the Central Avenue home.
    
Williams is the son of late Falmouth police officer Theodore "Teddy" Williams, who died last August.

Police said the two died from severe blunt force trauma to the head.
    
Authorities told The Boston Globe the two individuals were targeted. And this isn't the first time police have been in this house. According to court documents, the house has been scene of two drug raids in the past five years.
