His wife, Brenda Valle, was 38. A firearm was found near the bodies.
Jose Valle was pronounced dead at the scene, while Brenda Valle perished at a hospital.
They were parents to three children, ages 18, 16 and 11. The children were not injured and are receiving care, according to Sheriff’s officials.
