Ronald Gene Simmons "CHRISTMAS FAMILY INCEST MASSACRE" murders

Ronald Gene Simmons "CHRISTMAS FAMILY INCEST MASSACRE" murders

Ronald Gene Simmons "CHRISTMAS FAMILY INCEST MASSACRE" murders On December 22, 1987, Ronald Gene Simmons began a killing spree that would be the worst mass murder in Arkansas history and the worst crime involving one family in the history of the country. His rampage ended on December 28, 1987, leaving dead fourteen members of his immediate family and two former coworkers. Ronald Gene Simmons was born on July 15, 1940, in Chicago, Illinois, to Loretta and William Simmons. On January 31, 1943, William Simmons died of a stroke. Within a year, Simmons’s mother married again, this time to William D. Griffen, a civil engineer for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. The corps moved Griffen to Little Rock (Pulaski County) in 1946, the first of several transfers that would take the family across central Arkansas over the next decade. On September 15, 1957, Simmons dropped out of school and joined the U.S. Navy. His first station was Bremerton Naval Base in Washington, where he met Bersabe Rebecca “Becky” Ulibarri, whom he married in New Mexico on July 9, 1960. Over the next eighteen years, the couple had seven children. In 1963, Simmons left the navy and approximately two years later, he joined the air force. During his twenty-two-year military career, Simmons was awarded a Bronze Star, the Republic of Vietnam Cross for his service as an airman, and the Air Force Ribbon for excellent marksmanship. Simmons retired on November 30, 1979, at the rank of master sergeant. On April 3, 1981, Simmons was being investigated by the Cloudcroft, New Mexico, Department of Human Services for allegations that he had fathered a child with his seventeen-year-old daughter, Sheila. Fearing arrest, Simmons fled first to Ward (Lonoke County) in late 1981 and then to Dover (Pope County) in the summer of 1983. The family took up residence on a thirteen-acre tract of land that would become known as “Mockingbird Hill.” The residence was constructed of two older-model mobile homes joined to form one large home and was surrounded by a makeshift privacy fence, as high as ten feet tall in some places. The home did not have a telephone or indoor plumbing. Simmons worked a string of low-paying jobs in the nearby town of Russellville (Pope County). He quit a position as an accounts receivable clerk at Woodline Motor Freight after numerous reports of inappropriate sexual advances. He went to work at a Sinclair Mini Mart for approximately a year and a half before quitting on December 18, 1987. Evidence indicates that Simmons bludgeoned and shot his wife on December 22, 1987. Simmons also bludgeoned and shot his visiting son, twenty-nine-year-old Ronald Gene Simmons Jr. He then strangled his three-year-old granddaughter. All three bodies were later found in a shallow pit Simmons had instructed the children to dig months before for a third family outhouse. Later the same day, the Dover school bus dropped off the younger Simmons children for their Christmas break from school. Based on crime scene investigation, it is believed the Simmons children (ages seventeen, fourteen, eleven, and eight) were separated and killed individually, by strangulation and/or drowning in a rain barrel. Their bodies, too, were found in the hole for the outhouse. The older Simmons children had been invited to the Simmons home on December 26, 1987, for an after-Christmas dinner. Twenty-three-year-old William H. Simmons II, his twenty-one-year-old wife, Renata May Simmons, and their twenty-month-old son, all of Fordyce (Dallas County), were likely the first to arrive. William and Renata were shot, and their bodies were left by the dining room table, and covered with their own coats and some bedding. The child was killed and placed into the trunk of a car behind the Simmons home. Next to arrive were Simmons’s twenty-four-year-old daughter, Sheila, and her husband, thirty-three-year-old Dennis Raymond McNulty, as well as their children, seven-year-old Sylvia (the daughter of Sheila and her father) and twenty-one-month-old Michael. Sheila was shot, and her body was laid on the dining room table and covered with a tablecloth. Simmons shot Dennis and strangled Sylvia. Michael was strangled and placed into the trunk of yet another parked car. Later this same day, Simmons drove to Russellville, where he stopped at a Sears store and picked up Christmas gifts that had been ordered but had not made it in before the holiday. Later that night, he drove to a private club in Russellville. Then he went home and waited out the weekend. On Monday, December 28, 1987, Simmons drove a car that had belonged to his son, Ronald Jr., to Russellville. He purchased a second gun from Walmart Inc. His next stop was the Peel, Eddy and Gibbons Law Firm. After entering the building, Simmons shot and killed receptionist/secretary Kathy Cribbins Kendrick. He next went to the Taylor Oil Company, where he shot and wounded Russell “Rusty” Taylor, the owner of the Sinclair Mini Mart where he had worked, and then shot and killed J. D. (Jim) Chaffin, a fireman and part-time truck driver for Taylor Oil. Simmons shot at and missed another employee before exiting the building. Simmons then went to the Sinclair Mini Mart, where he shot and wounded Roberta Woolery and David Salyer. His last stop was the Woodline Motor Freight company. Simmons located his former supervisor, Joyce Butts, and wounded her in the head and chest. He then took worker Vicky Jackson at gunpoint into the computer office and advised her to phone the police. Simmons allegedly told Jackson: “I’ve come to do what I wanted to do. It’s all over now. I’ve gotten everybody who wanted to hurt me.” He surrendered to Russellville police when they arrived. Simmons was sent to the Arkansas State Hospital in Little Rock (Pulaski County) for a competency evaluation by staff psychiatrist Dr. Irving Kuo. Kuo found Simmons to be sane and capable of standing trial. Robert E. “Doc” Irwin and John Harris were appointed by the court to represent Simmons. The prosecuting attorney was John Bynum. Jury selection for the first trial took less than six hours. Simmons was convicted on May 12, 1988, in the Franklin County Circuit Court for the deaths of Kendrick and Chaffin. On May 16 Judge John Samuel Patterson sentenced Simmons to death by lethal injection plus 147 years. Simmons refused all rights to appeal. Simmons was found guilty of fourteen counts of capital murder in the deaths of his family members on February 10, 1989, in the Johnson County Circuit Court, with Judge Patterson presiding. Bynum offered a possible motive when he presented an undated note that was discovered in a safe deposit box at a Russellville bank after Simmons’s arrest. The letter seemed to indicate a strong love/hate relationship between Simmons and his daughter Sheila. After the judge ruled the letter admissible, Simmons lashed out at Bynum, punching him the face, and then unsuccessfully struggled for a deputy’s handgun. Officers rushed him out of the courtroom in chains. Simmons was sentenced to death by lethal injection on March 16, 1989. He again waived all rights to appeal. KTHV reporter Anne Jensen conducted a series of interviews with Simmons in February and March 1989. On March 1, 1989, Simmons was found competent to waive his rights to appeal his conviction. However the filing of Whitmore v. Arkansas challenged this right. Reverend Louis Franz and Jonas Whitmore contended that Simmons using his right to refuse appeal in fact jeopardized the appellate rights of other death row inmates. By 7–2 vote, the Supreme Court justices threw out this appeal; however, the ongoing legal proceedings had prevented the execution of Simmons from being carried out. Simmons was watching television and eating what he thought would be his last meal when the news of his stay of execution was announced. On May 31, 1990, Governor Bill Clinton signed Simmons’s second execution warrant for June 25, 1990. This was the quickest sentence-to-execution-to-death time in United States history since the death penalty was reinstated in 1976. Simmons refused all visitors, including legal counsel and clergy. His last words were: “Justice delayed finally be done is justifiable homicide.” No family members claimed the body, so Simmons was buried in a paupers’ plot at Lincoln Memorial Lawn in Varner (Lincoln County).

Despite the fact that Farver's body has yet to be discovered, prosecutors claim Golyar's memory card had images of Farver's decomposing foot, which had a tattoo, and thigh. According to KETV, Golyar was also found to have written an email detailing the murder from a bogus account posing as another woman. Golyar said in those emails that Farver had been stabbed in the chest and stomach, burned, and then thrown in a dumpster. On May 24, 2017, Golyar was convicted guilty of Farver's first-degree murder and second-degree arson. “Cari Farver did not willfully disappear and drop off the face of the Earth,” Douglas County Judge Timothy Burns stated after reading the decision, according to KETV.

The Disappearance Of Heather Elvis - True Crime Documentary

The Disappearance Of Heather Elvis - True Crime Documentary Heather Elvis, a twenty-year-old woman, went out on her date on December 17th, 2013. At roughly 1:15 a.m., her date dropped her off. Heather received a call from a former flame, Sidney Moorer, using a payphone, according to the investigation. Heather had been having an affair with Moorer, who was married at the time and was 38 years old. Sidney cut all communication with Heather after Moorer's wife discovered the affair, however his wife Tammy continued to harass and threaten her. Heather called her roommate after receiving the call from Moorer, stating that he wanted to meet up with her. Heather's roommate urged her against going. The call lasted about two minutes and Heather's roomate never heard from her again. Heather's car was discovered two days after she was reported missing. It was parked sideways at the Peachtree Landing Boat Launch. None of her missing possessions, including her pocketbook, keys, and phone, were found while the car was locked. Heather was not located despite extensive searches of the ocean and surrounding terrain. Heather's travels were tracked by cell phone records that night, but they all ended at 3:41 a.m. While Sidney and Tammy denied having spoken to Heather, surveillance footage revealed that Sidney had contacted her the night she vanished. Between 3:36 and 3:46 a.m., traffick cameras captured an image of a truck, the same model and color as Sidney's, driving to and from the boat launch. The Moorers were shrouded in suspicion for a long period, but law enforcement was unable to compile enough evidence to press charges. However, on February 21, 2014, investigators served a search warrant on their home. Sidney and Tammy were both arrested and charged with kidnapping, murder, obstruction of justice, and indecent exposure at the conclusion of the search. A grand jury indicted Tammy and Sidney on counts of kidnapping in April of 2018. Tammy was sentenced to thirty years in prison in the end. When Sidney was found guilty in 2019, he received the same sentence. heather elvis body found,heather elvis,heather elvis kidnapping,true story,tammy moorer trial,sidney moorer retrial,tammy moorer,sidney moorer

The Murder Of Kelsie Schelling True Crime Documentary

The Murder Of Kelsie Schelling True Crime Documentary

The Murder Of Kelsie Schelling True Crime Documentary Kelsie Schelling was 21 years old and eight weeks pregnant when she vanished in Pueblo, Colorado, on February 4, 2013. She had just learned she was pregnant with Donthe Lucas' child and had driven down from Denver to Pueblo after he told her he had a "surprise" for her. Her car was discovered a few days later at Pueblo's St. Mary-Corwin Hospital, and surveillance video showed Lucas driving it there. After years of rumors that Lucas was implicated in Schelling's disappearance, he was arrested and charged with first-degree murder in November 2017, according to the Denver Channel. He pled not guilty in August 2018 and denied any involvement. Lucas didn't want Schelling to have his baby, so he lured her to Pueblo and killed her, according to prosecutors. Schelling's body has never been found, and there is no DNA evidence of her murder, with the abandoned car serving as the last sign of her existence. In the days after her disappearance in Pueblo, video footage of Lucas showed him using her bank card and moving her vehicle. Colorado Bureau of Investigation believe Lucas strangled Schelling after luring her to the town. During Lucas' trial, his defense lawyers argued that neither her body nor any DNA had ever been found, and that charging Lucas with first-degree murder was the "biggest stretch in Colorado history," but the jury found him guilty after less than three hours of deliberation.
