Victims in Seattle killings identified
Both were killed inside the house in the 1300 block of South Ferdinand Street and were found dead by Jennifer's mom when she returned home.
Police are looking for Ema's father, who is described as a person of interest in the murders.
Investigators said Daniel Thomas Hicks may be driving a white 2006 Chevrolet pickup truck with a chrome tool box in the back. The truck's license plate number is A68135Z.
Friends say Hicks dated Jennifer for the past nine years, and they were talking about getting married soon.
"I would have never thought in a million years this would happen," said friend Bianca Robinson. "I know she was happy to be a mom. I thought he was happy to be a dad."
Jennifer grew up in the area and worked at a radiologist's office.

"We used to call her 'Olive Oyl' because she was tall," said neighbor Bob Thomas.
Police haven't released a motive, but said they want to question Hicks. Officials said Hicks should be considered armed and dangerous.
