Police shot the girls' brother, Kerby Revelus (23) after an officer saw him decapitate the younger girl. A surviving sister, 9-year-old Saraphina, is recovering at a Boston hospital after having surgery.
Ernst Guerrier, a Boston attorney and family friend, said he spent Monday morning with parents Regine and Vronze Revelus as they made plans to bury the three together.
"They are still dealing with the shock and disbelief of losing three of their children," said Guerrier.
Kerby Revelus had been in trouble before, but his criminal record does not show anything close to the level of brutal violence he unleashed on his sisters.
In September 2004, he was charged with assault and battery after another sister, Jessica, then 17, called the police and said her brother had punched her in the face during an argument over a phone bill.
Kerby was arrested for assault and battery in August 2004 after he was involved in a fight with several other teenagers.
