Gary and Laura Johnson went missing earlier this month. Their bodies were unearthed Friday at Gourdneck State Game Area in Portage, about three miles from their home.
Police entered the home last week and found signs of violence after Gary’s employer said he had not logged on for work.
Police said their son was found in a storage unit at an apartment building and had his parents’ car.
Portage is about 57 miles (91 kilometers) south of Grand Rapids.
