Three nudist campers found dead 'after man shoots ex-wife and her new boyfriend before taking his own life'
- Three members of a nudist colony were found shot dead in a home on the Quebec, Canada campground on Monday
- Authorities believe 76-year-old Denys Carpentier shot dead his ex Suzanne Gareau, 50, and her new boyfriend Rodrigue Tremblay, 77, before killing himself
- Members of the Club Naturiste Adam & Eve said Carpentier and Tremblay were longtime friends
Three members of a nudist colony were found shot to death in what Quebec, Canada police believe is a murder-suicide.
The bodies of Rodrigue Tremblay, 77; Suzanne Gareau, 50; and Denys Carpentier, 76, were found by relatives inside Tremblay's home on the Club Naturiste Adam & Eve campground in Sainte-Brigitte-des-Saults Monday afternoon.
Police believe that Carpentier killed his ex, Gareau, and longtime friend Tremblay before turning the high-powered rifle on himself.

The body of Gareau's ex Denys Carpentier, 76 (above), was also found in the home. Police believe he was the gunman
It's believed that Gareau left Carpentier for Tremblay. She had been staying with Tremblay at his home, which he bought from the couple a few years ago.
Autopsies are still pending, but police said the bodies showed traces of violence.
According to the nudist campground's Facebook page, the colony includes a number of small homes for rent, along with a pool, disco and bar.
The Facebook page says that the campground is for 'liberated' adults only.
It's believed that Carpentier shot his ex and her new boyfriend dead because he was jealous
Carpentier and Tremblay had been longtime friends. The home where the three were found on Monday was originally Carpentier's before he sold it to Tremblay
Members of the community told TVA Nouvelles that Carpentier was a jealous and 'possessive' man - but they did not think he was capable of murder.
Gareau allegedly spent Friday with a friend and told the friend about the tensions between her ex and her new boyfriend.
Neighbors who spoke with La Presse said that Tremblay's wife had died of cancer, and he had just started chemotherapy himself.
'Rodrigue, he would not hurt anyone. He was a good living man, he served everybody. He had three children, grandchildren. He had just started chemo,' one neighbor said.
'When his wife died of cancer, Rodrigue regained a taste for life. He was a fine fellow, and he made all the ladies ride around,' another neighbor added.
