GILBERT, Ariz. - Five people are dead following a shooting at a Gilbert home, and the killer is reportedly JT Ready, a well-known Neo-Nazi who was running for Pinal County Sheriff.
Ambulances and dozens of police officers were dispatched to the area of Warner and Cooper Rds, southeast of Phoenix, about 1:00 p.m. Wednesday on reports of shots fired.
In what may be a quadruple murder-suicide, JT Ready presumably shot and killed his girlfriend, 47-year-old Lisa Mederos, Lisa's daughter 22-year-old Amber Mederos, Amber's 22-year-old boyfriend Jim Hoitt, and Amber's 2-year-old daughter Lilly, according to a law enforcement source. This information has not officially been released by Gilbert Police.
Lilly was found still alive, but she died at the hospital.
White supremacist JT Ready opens fire on girlfriend, her family
Your point? If he is a Neo Nazi I would think his GF and family were also white as any other race would not fit his life style. Just another example of the media trying to put down whites by dragging his background into the issue to sensationalize the story and as usual People bought it without questioning why.
Ask yourself why didn't this murder suicide make national news? I can tell you Kathy was a lovely woman not deserving of what happened to her. Her hubby stabbed the family dog nearly to death because it tried to defend Kathy, the attack was that horrific. I believe he hung himself afterwords. Might have made a good example for the cause of domestic violence. Yet nobody gave a flying fuck past the local news.
Two people found dead in Milford home in possible murder-suicide
MILFORD Two people were dead Friday after what sources say police are investigating as a possible murder-suicide in a quiet, working-class development in the citys northern end.
Police spokesman Officer Jeffrey Nielsen said detectives were investigating the deaths as domestic in nature, and said police were withholding the identities of the victims until all next of kin are notified.
He said he couldnt confirm the murder-suicide theory, saying the investigation was in its early stages.
Police had been to the Branca Court home before on domestic complaints, however, according to court records.
The office of the chief medical examiner said autopsies were scheduled for this weekend for Kenneth Fox and Catherine Fox, who according to court and phone records, lived at 123 Branca Court, where the bodies were discovered.
Bridgeport police Officer Tom Minar, who lives on the street, said he had seen the husband early Friday.
I actually saw him walking the dog this morning, he said. The husband, identified in court documents as Kenneth Fox, 50, kept to himself, neighbors said.
Minars wife, Joyce, said the man, who lived in the house with his wife and son, never said much, even when they encountered each other walking their dogs.
She recalled a loud incident about a month ago, in which the husband and wife shouted at each other outside. He implored her to let him back inside because he didnt want to lose his job, Joyce Minar said.
It never got physical and Minar didnt call police, which she said she regrets now.
Some neighbors did call police, however. Kenneth Fox, 50, was arrested after a domestic dispute with his wife and 19-year-old son on Aug. 16. Police said Kenneth and Catherine Fox got into a verbal argument while in the car and, back at home, the father got into a physical altercation with his son. Both were arrested and later released on promises to appear in court.
A protective order against Kenneth Fox was issued barring any contact with the wife and son and requiring him to stay away from the house.
He returned the next day and was arrested for violating conditions of his release. According to a police report in the court file, when an officer told Fox his bail was $50,000 and offered him a phone call, Fox responded that he had no one to call and that he could not make the bond anyway. Court documents show bail was reduced to $2,500 in court but he still couldnt afford to post it. On Sept. 13, a judge granted a motion for a further reduction and set bail at $1,000. Fox posted through a bondsman and was released after nearly four weeks in jail.
Court records show Fox worked for Pepsi Co. in Stratford.
The deaths rattled the quiet development, which was built about 20 years ago off Burnt Plains Road, north of Route 1.
oyce Minar called her sons school and asked administrators not to send the 10-year-old home on the bus.
Im unnerved. I know were safe because the violence stayed inside the home. But its still a very unnerving feeling, she said.
Gary Gauruder, president of the York Village Association of the neighborhood, said he knew the male victim to say hello to, but not on a day-to-day basis.
Asked to describe the complex, resident Bryant Nolan said just the word: Quiet.
