Funerals were held Monday for Ashley Guarino and her two young children, all three of whom were found asphyxiated in their Marianna home.

Police said Guarino's estranged husband, Orlando, killed the 22-year-old woman on Wednesday night, along with 2½-year-old Dreux and 10-month-old Orlando Jr.

"Anything's possible. You know what I mean? You look at the circumstances, I would accuse me too," Guarino said while he was taken into custody Thursday. "It could be me. You never know. I'm not going to play it out in the media but, I mean, it could be me. Nobody's innocent of nothing. I didn't say I did it."

Guarino is charged with homicide, and the Washington County District Attorney said the death penalty is under consideration.

Guarino is scheduled for a preliminary hearing July 23.
