A jury has announced its decision in the case of a Carnation woman accused of killing six family members on Christmas eve in 2007.

Michele Anderson was charged with one count of first-degree murder for each of the victims. The jury has found her guilty of murder in the first degree on all six accounts.

The jury also concluded that Anderson was armed with a handgun for each murder.

Her boyfriend, Joseph McEnroe, was also involved in the murders. He was found guilty of six counts of aggravated first-degree murder in 2015 and sentenced to life in prison.

The bodies of Wayne and Judy Anderson, Michele Anderson’s parents, were found outside the home. The bodies of Anderson’s brother, Scott Anderson, his wife Erica and their children Olivia, 5, and Nathan, 3, were found in the living room, according to KIRO 7.

Anderson had a rocky relationship with her defense team. She refused to work with them and alleged they were liars. The judge denied her request for a new attorney, and her attorneys did not present a case.

Detectives argued that Anderson murdered her family because they demanded she start paying rent. She lived in a trailer on the family property in Carnation.
