Leguizamón with her late husband Bernardo.

A 50-year-old Argentinian woman, Laura Leguizamón, has brutally killed her entire family, leaving behind a chilling letter before committing suicide.
She is believed to have murdered her husband Bernardo Seltzer, 53, and their two children Ian, 15, and Ivo, 12, at their family home in Buenos Aires, Argentina.
Four bodies were horrifically discovered, covered in multiple stab wounds, by a housekeeper inside the family flat on Wednesday, May 21.
The housekeeper reportedly first discovered 12-year-old Ivo dead in the living room, laying in a pool of blood, then his brother Ivo in a bedroom.
The wife and her husband were reportedly both found dead in their master bedroom.
The housekeeper called emergency services and alerted them of the gruesome nightmare, where an ambulance confirmed the deaths at the scene.
Police said they believed the late husband could have been attacked in his sleep.
The mum’s body was found with a fatal wound but there were no signs of resistance or struggle from a potential attack.
Cops reportedly said both of her children had wounds on their backs and defensive wounds on their body.
The deceased children flanked by both parents.
A chilling note, believed to be by Leguizamón, was found in the kitchen but only a few phrases could be deciphered due to how it was written, according to infobae.
The letter said: “Everything was bad, it was a lot. I love you. Everything was bad. Very perverse.”
Despite this, police have not yet confirmed who wrote the note.
The police said the letter found in the kitchen was written by “someone who was not in their right mind.”
Leguizamón’s sister also told investigators that the mum had been undergoing psychiatric treatment at the time.
The housekeeper had also told cops that Leguizamón “had changed a lot in recent weeks”.
She said the changes included telling her to leave early, and getting bothered by turning on a vacuum cleaner.
Cops also suggested the mum could have stopped taking her medication.
Police reportedly believe one of her son’s attempted to flee the flat but failed before he was killed.
Argentina’s Justice Department is investigating the case as a domestic crime because there were no signs of forced entry or anything having been stolen.
Leguizamón had posted about her family on social media and shared they had gone on holiday to Uruguay for Bernardo’s birthday last January and they also travelled to the Dominican Republic last October for the mum’s 50th birthday.
Following their brutal deaths, a talk the husband gave, about family in 2017, has resurfaced.
At the time, he said: “I have a loving, fantastic wife; I am grateful to life for having found her. And I have two beautiful children.”
