REVEALED: Wealthy Massachusetts couple found dead in ‘murder-suicide’ along with daughter, 18, faced financial trouble – filed for bankruptcy and had foreclosure notice on $6.7 million home in affluent town

A wealthy Masschusetts couple who were found dead along with their teenage daughter in a “violent domestic incident” at their $6.7 million mansion had filed for bankruptcy and had their home foreclosed on.

Teena Kamal, 54, her husband Rakesh, 57, and daughter Ariana, 18, were found dead in the 27-room house at 8 Wilson's Way in Dover – the state's wealthiest city, just 20 miles from Boston.

On Thursday evening, a family member went to their house to check on him around 7:30 p.m., although it is unclear why. Once there, he discovered one of the bodies and called 911. Police later discovered the two other bodies, as well as a firearm.

Over the past two years, the Kamals faced financial problems and filed for bankruptcy in 2022.

Teena, 54, filed for bankruptcy in September 2022, with debts between $1 million and $10 million. The Wilson's Way Homeowners Association was listed as a creditor in documents obtained by DailyMail.com.

However, the case was dismissed in October and ultimately closed this month because the proper forms and documents were not filed.

There was also a foreclosure notice on their home, estimated at $6.7 million according to city records. It sits on a private road dotted with about eight mansions each selling for more than $5 million, spread across acres of land.

Rakesh Kamal, who was listed as Chief Operating Officer of the now-defunct education technology start-up founded by his wife, was also found dead at the family's mansion in Dover.

Both Teena and husband Rakesh were listed on the website of EduNova – a defunct tech company that launched a 'student success system' to help them improve their grades.

The company, which Teena founded and launched in 2016, was dissolved in December 2021. Raskesh was listed as the company's Chief Operating Officer.

Teena is also listed as a member of the board of the American Red Cross of Massachusetts. Her biography credits her as “collaborating with top university faculty and business leaders to produce resources that prepare students to lead and thrive in the global economy.”

Before starting her own company, she worked at both technology companies and Fidelity Investments. It also states that she is an alumni of Harvard University and graduated magna cum laude from Delhi University in India.

The couple's teenage daughter, Ariana, graduated from the prestigious Milton Academy earlier this year. The coeducational prep school and day school accepts only about 14 percent of applications and costs $64,800 per year.

After graduating from the elite school, Ariana enrolled at Middlebury College in Vermont to study neuroscience, according to her LinkedIn profile.

She had only been to Middlebury a few months before her tragic death.

Ariana, 18, was also involved in tutoring and mentoring and interned at Mass General Brigham – a non-profit, integrated healthcare system.

Wilson's Way is a private road in Dover, about 20 miles from Boston. With a population of about 6,000 people and a median income of $250,000, it is considered the wealthiest city in the state. The Kamals' home was valued at $6.7 million, according to city records

A firearm was found at the property near Rakesh – the husband and father, Norfolk District Attorney Michael W. Morrissey confirmed Friday

The family's Dover home features 11 bedrooms and 13 bathrooms and is spread over 19,000 square meters of land. It was recently assessed at $6.7 million, according to city property records.

Footage from the home Friday morning showed packages in boxes piled outside the family's door — though the district attorney did not confirm how long the family had been dead.

The Norfolk District Attorney's Office initially confirmed in a news release Friday morning that three people were found dead.

At a press conference on Friday morning, District Attorney Michael Morrissey said: “This is an event to remember that the crisis of domestic violence cuts across all socio-economic and social situations.

'During the search, the police found a firearm in the building.

“It is clear that this is a contained situation and poses no threat to the residents of the city.”

The medical examiner will determine the cause and manner of death today, he added.

“This is very unfortunate and our thoughts go out to the entire Kamal family over this terrible tragedy.”

Morrissey said there was no threat to the public and that “it is safe to believe this is a domestic incident.”

“It's a safe neighborhood and the neighbors didn't know,” he added.

Dover, the wealthiest city in Massachusetts, recorded its last murder in 2020.

“These types of violent situations are rare in any community in Norfolk County, especially Dover. It is a small, well run and controlled community.

“The violence we see in Norfolk County is unfortunately often a result of people knowing each other.”

Wilson's Way is a private road in Dover, about 20 miles from Boston. With a population of about 6,000 people and a median income of $250,000, it is considered the wealthiest city in the state.

In 2020, local doctor Ingolf Tuerk, 58, was charged with the murder of his wife Kathleen McLean, who was found dead in a pond not far from their Valley Road home.

McLean's body was discovered two days after she was last seen alive. Police believed she had died during an argument with her husband.

The medical examiner noted “injuries and bruises consistent with strangulation.”

Tuerk allegedly told police he had strangled his wife, and when he realized she was dead, he panicked and dumped her body in a pond.

Records showed the mother of three had told police her husband had repeatedly abused her during their marriage just months before her murder.

She had accused him of “strangling” and “cutting hair with scissors” and was so afraid of his “abuse” that she took out a restraining order against him.
