Caraline Engleman, a 6-month-old infant, tragically lost her life on August 27, 2020, in San Marcos, Texas. She and her 2-year-old sister, Amyah Engleman, were found shot to death under a tarp in their family's yard. The investigation revealed that their father, 30-year-old Kyle Brandon Grieb, was responsible for their deaths. Grieb, who had taken the children from their mother Halie Engleman, shot both girls before turning the gun on himself.
The Hays County Sheriff's Office was called
to the scene after Halie Engleman reported that Grieb had taken the children and fled. Upon arrival, deputies discovered the bodies of the two young girls with gunshot wounds to the head, and Grieb's body with an obvious gunshot wound next to the tarp. The tragic incident was determined to be a double murder-suicide.
No further arrests or litigations were pursued as Grieb was deceased at the scene. The case was closed with the conclusion that Grieb acted alone in the murder of his daughters and himself.
The Engleman family has since received support from the community, including a GoFundMe campaign set up to assist Halie Engleman and her family during this difficult time. The loss of Caraline and Amyah Engleman has deeply affected their family and the community, leaving a lasting impact on all who knew them.
