Colts Neck Homicide: Horrifying Photos Show Caneiro Mansion Fire
New aerial photos show the intentional fire that engulfed an entire Colts Neck mansion, in what authorities say is a quadruple homicide.

With Thanksgiving a day away, it is hard to make sense of the events surrounding the tragic mansion fire in Colts Neck, New Jersey. In what should be a time of reflection and family gatherings, we mourn the loss of four victims — Keith and Jennifer Caneiro, along with their two children.
Paul Caneiro, brother of deceased victim Keith, was officially charged with intentional arson after setting fire to his own home in Ocean Township. At this time, Paul's involvement in the deadly blaze at his brother Keith's mansion in Colts Neck is still under investigation. Monmouth County Prosecutor Christopher Gramiccioni has since revealed that the family of four had been murdered before their house was set ablaze.
New aerial views of the mansion, taken from footage provided by WABC, show the extremity of the horrific fire. We will continue update this post as the investigation unfolds.
