Who are the Buffalo Grove victims? Autopsy reveals Illinois family of 5 died from ‘sharp force injuries’

Last September, his wife Vera Kisliak sought a protective order after he threatened to kill and dismember her, kept loud music throughout the night, invited prostitutes to home and drug overdosed at their family home, reports the Daily Mail.

The couple was in the middle of their divorce proceedings, and on November 1, Vera and Andrei requested the court to lift the ban from the protective order. This joint request was made on her agreeing to let her husband return back to home and visit their children. Based on their request, Judge Marnie Slavin expressed that she “strongly advised against the arrangement,” through a handwritten note in addition to agreeing to lift the ban.

Weeks after the proceeding, on November 30, the Village of Buffalo Grove of Illinois announced on Twitter that they found five dead bodies of a family in their home in Buffalo Grove, Illinois during a welfare check.  

Andrei, his mother Lilia Kisliak, 67, his wife Vera, 36, Vivian Kisliak, 6, and Amilia Kisliak, 4, were stabbed to death from "sharp force injuries." The authorities call the gruesome deaths of the family members a domestic-related homicide. 

According to the Daily Mail, the court documents show that since July when Vera filed the divorce, Andrei exhibited aggressive behavior and conduct toward his family members. Vera allegedly told that her husband stalked her and took away her car while she dropped their children at school. He later threatened to murder her and he would disfigure her. She also claimed that Andrei was involved in drug abuse wherein he had marijuana intake and used cocaine on a daily basis.

The final proceeding of their divorce was to take place a day before the family members were found dead in their home at 2830 Acacia Terrace in a northwest suburb of Chicago.
