The victims were all found dead Friday night after officers responded to a 911 call, finding one man dead on the front porch of a home along Bart Drive and two men dead inside.

Police said a preliminary investigation leads them to believe the triple homicide is related to a Hispanic prostitution operation that was being run out of the Antioch home. Records revealed the home was recently sold in July.

Detectives said they are still looking for the woman who arrived to the home with the victims in a Honda sedan with temporary Georgia tags.
