Family of four found murdered in South Richmond

This happened 2 streets from Warpath and Luxorreb. I personally didn't know these people, but i know that Luxorreb did and many many of his friends did as well. The family was an extremely well loved couple who were very outgoing in the Richmond community. Horrible horrible news.

Terrible, terrible news. What a tragedy. I've been in that store (the mother's) many times. I hope they find those responsible.

wow.........

hooskins · 01-05-2006, 03:38 AM

thats really terrible.

skinsfanthru&thru · 01-05-2006, 08:48 PM

they reported on 101's news segment this morning that one of the family members didn't die from knife wounds, which makes it almost seem like there's a scary possibility that it might have been a murder suicide. I haven't heard anything since I left for work but if that's the case that makes this case even more depressing.

skinsfanthru&thru · 01-07-2006, 11:30 PM

looks like the 101 report was incorrect but the story got worse:

atleast they now have suspects in custody before this happened again.

We heard about the charges filed and the arrestings made which I guess is a great thing. Im really not sure how they all are related but I guess thats why I am not a CSI. I'm definitely not one for the death penalty but I think when children are concerned and murdered then the chargerd should be burned and killed out in the middle of the city where all can come and watch. I'd love to see people responsible for the killing of these children be burned live in public. Id be right up front wearing my Burn ' em gear cheering the flames. And no that doesnt sound harsh to me at all.

I completely agree. I've been having nightmares about my own daughter every since I heard the story.

An update - the New Year's Eve attack was near my house. I wasn't even in the country at the time, but still scary that this stuff can happen in your own backyard.

Attack Tied to Richmond Slayings
Dec. 31 Stabbing in Arlington Part of Rampage, Police Say
By Jamie Stockwell and Jerry Markon
Washington Post Staff Writers
Wednesday, January 11, 2006; Page B05

A 25-year-old Arlington County man's throat was slit as he arrived home on New Year's Eve, and police have now connected the attack to the slayings of two families in Richmond that began the following day, law enforcement sources said yesterday.

The Arlington man survived the stabbing outside the home he shared with his parents on North 25th Street but was so severely injured that he has been unable to talk to police, the sources said. Investigators linked the incident to the Richmond slayings shortly after Ricky J. Gray and Ray J. Dandridge, both 28, were arrested Saturday in Philadelphia.

Gray and Dandridge, who attended high schools in Arlington in the early 1990s, were arraigned yesterday on charges of killing seven people in their Richmond homes, including two children, during a rampage. They have not been charged with the Dec. 31 stabbing in Arlington, which neighbors said caused the man's father to run outside with a baseball bat after his son collapsed. The attackers had fled.

Now, authorities in multiple states are trying to determine whether other people were slain in the crime spree. The two men have a long criminal history, and court records show they committed a series of robberies in Alexandria and elsewhere in the Washington area, including a 1995 holdup of two college students in Georgetown.

"We are working with a lot of police departments on the East Coast to see if they have any other facts that fit this scenario," Richmond Police Chief Rodney D. Monroe said yesterday. "We've had some departments call us," including police in Northern Virginia, the District and Maryland, he said.
Among the cases in which Gray and Dandridge are suspected is the killing of Gray's wife, Treva. Her body was found Nov. 5 in a parking lot in Washington, Pa., outside Pittsburgh, where the couple had lived for several months, Washington Police Chief John Haddad said.

"Mr. Gray was always a person of interest in this case. He's obviously a person of more interest now, along with Dandridge," said Haddad, who added that Gray was questioned several times by police and admitted to tension with his wife.

Meanwhile, authorities from Culpeper, Va., will meet with Richmond police today to explore any possible connections between the Richmond killings and the Dec. 18 slaying of Sheryl Warner, Culpeper County Sheriff H. Lee Hart said. Her body was found in her home, which had been set on fire.
Police in the District have not eliminated the possibility that Gray and Dandridge were involved in the slaying of retired New York Times journalist David E. Rosenbaum, even though the Richmond and Arlington victims all were stabbed. Rosenbaum was beaten and robbed as he walked on a sidewalk Friday night in Northwest Washington. Gray and Dandridge were arrested in Philadelphia the next morning.

Capt. C.V. Morris said the Richmond slayings are "not a focus of [the Rosenbaum] investigation at this time" but added, "We're not going to rule that out totally."

The home of the Harvey family in Richmond was set on fire New Year's Day, when the family was slain. Bryan Harvey, 49, his wife, Kathryn, 39, and their daughters, Stella, 9, and Ruby, 4, were bound and their throats were cut, police said.

The Harveys were well-known in Richmond for their music and business activities. Bryan Harvey played guitar and sang in several bands, including the House of Freaks, which released five albums in the 1980s and 1990s. Kathryn Harvey was the half sister of actor Steven Culp, who played Rex Van De Kamp on the television series "Desperate Housewives."

Gray and Dandridge are also being investigated in connection with a home invasion Jan. 3 in Chesterfield, a Richmond suburb, law enforcement sources said.

Members of the other slain Richmond family -- Percyell Tucker, 55, his wife, Mary Baskerville, 47, and her daughter Ashley Baskerville, 21 -- were found dead Friday night in their home, which had been ransacked, police said.

Gray and Dandridge are charged with conspiracy to commit murder in the Richmond slayings and are being held without bond. Monroe accused the men yesterday of "robbing people in a vicious manner."

Arlington police have not determined a motive for the stabbing of the 25-year-old man about 8:30 p.m. in the 5100 block of North 25th Street, a quiet and relatively safe area of the county. His name was not released because police consider him a witness.

Matthew Martin, an Arlington police spokesman, said information about the stabbing was sent in an e-mail to the Yorktown Civic Association's members, who live near the scene of the attack. A news release on the incident was not issued.

Catherine Som, who lives next door, said the victim's father went outside to check on his son after hearing him arrive home and saw him stumbling toward their front door. "They have knives," Som said the man told his father before collapsing.

The victim's mother declined to talk about her son or the attack yesterday.

In Alexandria, Circuit Court records show that Gray and Dandridge took part in several armed robberies in October 1995, when they were both 19. Along with a friend, they robbed two Georgetown University students of their watches and backpacks, records show.

The group then committed several robberies in Alexandria, taking a dollar, a pager and sunglasses from one man, a leather hooded coat from another man, and a wallet and watch from a cabdriver. Dandridge served 10 years in prison, records show. Gray was sentenced to four years.
