June 29, 2018 By Troy G. Bennett

chapel

The Stanford University chapel slaying remained unsolved for 44 years.

BEACON TRANSCRIPT – San Jose Police Department reported that Steve Crawford, a security guard listed as a person of interest in the 1974 ritualist murder of Arlis Perry, committed suicide on Thursday. The man, who was wanted in connection with the Stanford University chapel, turned the gun on him after the authorities knocked on his door.

Stanford University Chapel Slaying Pinned on Ted Bundy or Occultists

On the 12th of October 1974, North Carolina homicide detectives were called to Stanford University’s chapel, after a person discovered the body of a 19-year-old woman.

The authorities later identified the victim as 19-year-old Arlis Perry, who had been living on campus with her husband.

Perry’s death baffled the authorities. According to a police report dated October 1974, the victim had been discovered laying on the ground, with an ice pick embedded in the back of her head. Furthermore, Arlis was naked from the waist down.

The homicide detectives investigating Arlis’ murder stated that there were altar candles on the woman’s torso. Later, the county’s coroner would write that the assailant also placed altar candles inside Mrs. Perry’s body.

Unfortunately, the case was put on ice, as the authorities did not have enough leads to incriminate a person.

Decades later, North Carolina authorities reopened Perry’s case. Encouraged by the new DNA sampling techniques that led to the arrest of Joseph James DeAngelo, the notorious Golden State Killer, and Raymond Rowe, the man responsible for the murder of an elementary school teacher in 1992.

After applying the method to several samples collected from the crime scenes, the authorities discovered that Perry’s killer was the same man who discovered her body – Steve Crawford, the campus security guard.

Conclusion

On Thursday, several lawmen knocked on 72-year-old Crawford’s door to inform him that he had been named a person of interest in the Stanford University chapel slaying.

Crawford, who talked with the deputies through the door, brandished a gun, prompting the officers to back up. Several minutes late, a gunshot was heard from inside.

Authorities found the woman’s decomposing body inside her garage.

BEACON TRANSCRIPT – On Saturday, Texas authorities, acting on a tip allegedly received from Denny’s manager, arrested two 17-year-old teens. According to the police report, the Texas teen ran over a senior woman, leaving her to die in her locked garage. Police found her decomposing body following a complaint about an odd smell.

Texas Teens Were Known for their Dining and Dashing Routine

On the 23rd of June, Texas police arrested Teijhon “T.J.” Shannon and David Paul Jones. The two have been accused of assaulting and murdering a 75-year-old woman, whose remains have been found in her garage on Friday morning.

According to the police report, the day before the teens were taken into custody, one of 75-year-old Clara Jeanne Barna’s neighbors called the emergency line to report a foul smell coming from the woman’s property.

The authorities rang the doorbell but received no answer. Upon searching the premises, cops found Barna’s decomposing body in the garage.

An autopsy performed on the woman’s remains over the weekend revealed that Mrs. Barna cause of death was vehicular trauma. According to the coroner report, the woman had a fractured skull and a broken back.

Moreover, the clue that led to the arrest of Jones and his accomplice was the woman’s missing 2003 Buick LeSabre.

During questioning, the suspects confessed to killing the woman and stealing the car. According to their taped confessions, the two stalked the senior woman for a while before acting. After Shannon yanked the woman’s car keys, Jones got inside and used the keys to fire up Mrs. Barna’s Buick.

Conclusion

Fearing that they could be heard, Jones put the car in reverse and ran over both Barna and Shannon. The teen sustained non-life-threatening injuries. Before leaving, Shannon dragged Barna into the garage and closed the door.

The authorities were probably notified by Denny’s manager who knew the teens’ dining and dashing routine.

Monalisa Perez used a similar gun to shoot her boyfriend.

BEACON TRANSCRIPT – On Friday, the Norman County prosecutor released the audio transcript of Perez’s YouTube prank which claimed the life of her boyfriend last year. The transcript reveals that Monalisa Perez was very much against shooting Pedro Ruiz III in the chest with the .50 caliber firearm.

Monalisa Perez Told Her Boyfriend that the Prank Could Go Sideways

This Friday, the Norman County prosecutor decided to release portions of the YouTube clip in which Perez gunned down her 22-year-old boyfriend.

Moments before Ruiz III hits the ground, Monalisa Perez could be heard arguing with him. According to the audio transcript, the woman told Ruiz III that the prank he had planned wasn’t safe and that he could lose his life.

After that, the man could be heard telling his then-pregnant girlfriend that his plan would work and that he’s done it before. Before Perez pulled the trigger, Ruiz III told her to hit only the encyclopedia he held to the chest and nothing else.

Again, the man could be heard telling his girlfriend that the bullet won’t go through the book. Moments before he passed away, Ruiz told Monalisa Perez that if this prank went sideways, he would end up in heaven. More than that, the man also told her that he would probably be denied entrance by Jesus who would chuckle at the ‘stupid’ way he died.

Conclusion

With two cameras in place and over 30 people watching, including the couple’s 3-year-old daughter, Monalisa Perez pointed the gun at Ruiz’s chest and pulled the trigger.

Last year, Perez was sentenced to 180 days in prison after she pleaded guilty to second-degree manslaughter. As part of the court deal, Perez will serve 30 days each year in prison for the next six years.

June 26, 2018 By Jennifer Licata

Hitchhiking

The New Zealand man had duct tape, rope, and knife in his backpack.

BEACON TRANSCRIPT – Goochland County deputies and FBI agents are investigating the strange case of a man from New Zealand shot outside a family’s house on Friday afternoon. According to the authorities, the 25-year-old flew from New Zealand to the United States to meet the family’s 14-year-old daughter.

New Zealand Man Allegedly Planned to Abduct the Teenage Girl

On Friday, Gooch Land county deputies arrested 25-year-old Troy Skinner after a woman called 911 to report a shooting.

According to the police report, the suspect had been shot by a Holland Hills Community woman after he allegedly used a brick to smash a glass window.

The investigation revealed that Skinner is from New Zealand and flew all the way to the United States to meet the Virginia woman’s teenage daughter. Skinner and the girl met several months ago through Discord, a communication platform quite popular among gamers.

Jim Agnew, Goochland County Sheriff, declared that several weeks before the incident, the teenage girl informed the New Zealand man of her decision of stopping all forms of communication.

Moreover, Skinner, who apparently developed an obsession for the girl, took every bit of money he could find around the house and bought a plane ticket to Australia.

From there, the individual booked passage to Los Angeles. Furthermore, police records indicated that the New Zealand man boarded a plane to Washington DC. Next, he took a bus to Richmond and hitched roughly 30 miles to the teen’s house.

Conclusion

The girl’s mother told the authorities that she knew that the man she had seen outside her home that afternoon was Skinner.

Allegedly, when the woman refused to let him in, Skinner used a brick to smash a glass door. That’s when the woman took up a handgun and shot the New Zealand man twice, hitting him once in the neck.

Skinner was taken to the hospital. Furthermore, the doctors said that he would survive. Authorities have yet to press charges against the New Zealand man.

An Arizona Police spokesperson declared that Sharalyn Stura has recently been charged in the slaying of 66-year-old Jay Michael Freeman, her boyfriend.

According to the police report, on early Thursday morning, several officers from the Arizona Department of Public Safety discovered Stura’s car on the Interstate 17.

Apparently, the woman was found with her hands tied to the car’s steering wheel. Moreover, after the law enforcement officer freed Stura, the woman told them that she had been kidnapped by an unknown individual who held her at gunpoint throughout the car trip.

Furthermore, according to the ‘victim’s’ testimony, the armed suspect forced Stura to drive him to Rimrock.

On the way, she somehow managed to escape to the Interstate 17. This was when the authorities began to suspect that something might be off.

The coroner identified the victim as Jay Michael Freeman, Stura’s live-in boyfriend.

Conclusion

The homicide detectives are now trying to determine the Arizona woman’s motive for killing her 66-year-old boyfriend. Authorities said that they are going to pull up the woman’s criminal record to serve as evidence during her trial.
