Indiana family murdered by their teenage son. |
1. Indianapolis teen killed his family.
A 17-year old terrorist murdered his family in Indianapolis. The suspect is charged with shooting and killing his father, his mother, his older brother, his pregnant girlfriend and his sister. The suspect also shot his younger brother but he still fighting for his life.
The horror on Adams Street began with an argument that plays out in nearly every American family with a teenager: a battle over staying out too late. This one, though, didn't end in a grounding or scolding. Police and prosecutors say it ended in the worst mass killing in Indianapolis in more than a decade.
A family — mom, dad, two siblings, a pregnant teen and her unborn child, less than a week from entering the world — were slaughtered. Another brother escaped and tried to buy his life with $40. He was shot and left for dead but became the sole survivor of the massacre.
According to that surviving 15-year-old, his father's last words to the son who allegedly killed him were "I love you."
Unrepentant suspect murdered his family. |
The Marion County Prosecutor's Office announced Thursday that the terrorist has been formally charged with six counts of murder, attempted murder and carrying a handgun without a license in Marion County. At just 17 years old, the teen cannot be put to death. But he could face up to LIFE if he is found guilty of the murders.
The 17-year-old was arrested Monday at the home of a relative just one day after his family was found slain in the near-northside home they shared.
Kezzie Childs, 42, Raymond Childs, 42, Elijah Childs, 18, Rita Childs, 13, Kiara Hawkins, 19, and her unborn baby boy were pronounced dead after being found in that home shortly before 4 a.m. Sunday.
Officials said Hawkins was in a relationship with Elijah Childs. The other victims were all immediate family.
2. Everett, Washington man kills daughter's boyfriend.
Dustyn Hunt known as Yung Nabii was killed by his girlfriend's dad. |
So in 2019, a Washington state man caught a man in his daughter's bedroom. He got into an altercation with the daughter and boyfriend. He gets his firearm and the boyfriend is shot dead. Now this terrorist is claiming self defense but his daughter believes her father was harboring racist beliefs towards their relationship.
An Everett man has been charged with second-degree murder, nearly two years after shooting and killing a 21-year-old man who had been dating his daughter.
That’s according to the Snohomish County Prosecuting Attorney’s Office
The suspect is accused of shooting Dustyn Hunt in February 2019.
Prosecutors say he was angry that his 20-year-old daughter tried to sneak Hunt into her room for the night.
When he knocked on the door to check on the two, he was armed; Hunt was not.
The suspect’s attorney did not immediately respond to a request for comment Monday.
The suspect and his wife told investigators they did not allow their daughter, Lauryn, to have overnight guests in her bedroom. According to the charging documents, her parents texted her the night of the fatal incident, writing that they wanted everyone “out of the home by 10:30.”

When she did not answer, the father armed himself with a pistol and knocked on the door to his daughter’s bedroom. He quickly discovered Hunt hiding under the bed in “in his underwear and an undershirt,” the suspect told officials.
“According to the defendant, he stood up, aimed for the victim’s shoulder and shot him one time,” the charging documents read.
“He admitted that he never thought about punching the victim or hitting him with the gun, and that the shooting was entirely intentional (rather than the gun accidentally going off) because, according to him, he was afraid the victim was trying to choke him.”
The suspect said that he could not explain why he armed himself, adding that he also suspected Hunt could have a weapon.
“Something just didn’t feel right,” he told detectives.
It’s not clear why it took so long for charges to be filed in the case.
“It upsets me so much that this is my own dad. But this is what happened and this is what I saw,” Lauryn Heller told The Seattle Times after the shooting. “I just want there to be justice in whatever way that’s served. I want his family to know peace. I want everybody to know what happened.”
3. Austin, Texas doctor kills a doctor after he was denied a job.

A doctor who was dying from terminal cancer decided to take his anger on an employer after he was denied work and health benefits. It was a stand off that took the life of a mother of three.
Two pediatricians were found dead inside a Texas medical building Tuesday night after a hostage situation that lasted more than six hours.
According to Austin police, Dr. Katherine Dodson, 43, was fatally shot inside the Children’s Medical Group in the 1900 block of West 35th Street. The suspect was a 43-year-old pediatrician who then shot himself, police said.
Officers first responded to the scene about 4:30 p.m. after getting a "disturbance call" about an armed man who entered the medical building. They learned the man, later identified as the suspect, had a pistol, a shotgun, two duffel bags and five hostages.
Some of the hostages escaped, police said. Others were later allowed to leave with the exception of Dodson, according to authorities. The hostages told police that the suspect, who had recently been diagnosed with terminal cancer, had just visited Dodson's office last week to apply for a volunteer position.
"Other than the previously mentioned visit to this office, there did not appear to be any relation or other contact between Dr. Dodson and the suspect," police said in a news release.

Hostage negotiators were called to the scene and tried to speak with Narumanchi over a loudspeaker to no avail, according to authorities.
“We haven’t talked to you in a couple hours, and we want to make sure you’re OK,” a SWAT member said, according to NBC affiliate KXAN.
About 10:50 p.m., the news station reported hearing loud bangs. Jody Barr, a KXAN reporter at the scene, wrote on Twitter that he heard “multiple loud explosions” that sounded like gunshots. What followed was silence, Barr reported.
Shortly after midnight, police tweeted that “the SWAT situation has ended" and that they found the bodies of Dodson and the suspect.
The investigation was turned over to the police department’s homicide unit. The Travis County Medical Examiner’s Office was conducting an autopsy to determine the cause of death.
The Children’s Medical Group did not immediately respond to a request for comment. As of Wednesday, the company’s website appeared to be deactivated.

A plainclothes police officer was struck in a shootout with a suspect spotted in New York City Tuesday night as officers investigated a past shooting.
New security video shows how the intersection in the Soundview section of the Bronx turned into a major crime scene with an NYPD officer shot.
31-year-old Officer Daniel Vargas was shot after members of the Gun Violence Suppression Division saw the man on Lafayette Avenue near White Plains Road just before 10:30 p.m.
The four cops riding in that unmarked car spotted the suspect Ajani Jones who immediately took off running. The officers made a U-turn and followed.
Once under the scaffolding on Lafayette Ave, officials say the officers got out and chased the 24-year-old who they say pulled at a weapon and fired four shots.
One bullet hit Officer Vargas in the back, just below his protective vest.
Vargas fired once, but the 24-year-old suspect was not hit.
"Within minutes, within seconds, they were in a gunfight," Police Commissioner Dermot Shea said.
Witness Alicia Johnson commends the officers for what they did next.
"They called out who they were and they told him to get down," Johnson said. "He got down and they took him into custody."
Vargas was rushed to Jacobi Medical Center by fellow officers, where he was in stable condition.
"He is in a lot of pain, but thankfully we expect him to make a full recovery," Shea said.
"It looks like he's going to make a very strong recovery. So we are counting our blessings tonight," Mayor de Blasio added.
The six-and-a-half-year veteran officer, whom the mayor called "a proud son of the Bronx," was surrounded by family at the hospital, many of them police officers themselves.
"They are very upset. They are very upset," Shea said. "But at the same time, they realize - probably an element of shock - how it could have been very different."
5. Houston father killed by rival family after his daughter was cyberbullied.
Texas dad shot and killed after he confronted his daughter's bully. |
Family members of a father of five who was shot to death on Friday said he was hoping to talk to a teen's parents about his daughter being bullied on social media when he was killed.
Brandon Curtis, 35, was shot more than once in the 10900 block of Spring Brook Pass in the Humble area. The shooter claimed self-defense.
Harris County Sheriff Ed Gonzalez said it happened after Curtis took his daughter to fight other teens. However, Curtis' wife and sisters dispute that claim.
"I don't feel like it's right to let that come out like that. I'm angry. I'm angry about it," said Curtis' wife, Shantal Harris. "I know my husband. My husband is not like that."
"My brother would never put a hand on a child," said Curtis' sister, Jeran Perkins. "We want justice."
Harris said her 15-year-old daughter has been bullied on social media by the same teen boy for nine months. She shared some of the profanity-laced messages with ABC13 on Monday.
A few months ago, Harris said she and her husband spoke with the boy's father about it. She said Friday evening, her husband, daughter and son left to address the issue again.
"When he left from here, my husband went to go resolve the issue. He wanted to go speak to the parent," explained Harris.
However, Curtis never came home. Once outside the teen's house, the confrontation turned violent. Investigators said a 20-year-old man told them Curtis hit his teen brother.
The man got a gun to protect his brother and shot Curtis, authorities said. He died at the scene.
The man was not charged and the case will be referred to a Harris County grand jury, according to the sheriff's office.
Over the weekend, Harris said her daughter received a message that read, "we all had a fight and killed dey (sic) daddy."
"They think it's a joke," said Robinique Miles, Curtis' sister.
"For them to claim self- defense, it's sickening," added Harris.
Curtis' family want the man who shot him charged.
Curtis, a commercial truck driver, worked tirelessly to provide or his family. Now, they feel compelled to fight for him.
It never happens in your community.......! Until it does! Every community in the United States will eventually have a legacy. A legacy of tragedy. Gun violence and COVID-19 will affect your town, your family and your life. So I don't want to hear that bullshit about how this gun reform is taking away your rights. I don't want to hear that protesting against police killing people of color is hate on cops in general. I don't want to hear talk about the coronavirus being a myth. I don't want hear folks say this is not white privilege. I don't want to hear folks say masks impede their freedoms. I don't want to hear the shit about guns saving lives. These incidents are a tragic part of American history.
I DON'T BELIEVE EVERYTHING ON THE INTERNET OR THE COP'S VERSION.
GOD IS NOT FIXING THIS!
We haven't forgotten about the many mass shootings in the United States. COVID-19 doesn't stop individuals from picking up firearms and killing others.
The website Officer Down is a memorial to those who were killed in the line of duty. Those who don't get their names mentioned in the junk food media. Also the website the National Gun Violence Memorial also keeps record of the many individuals killed by gun violence.
