DISPUTE OVER STIMULUS CHECK LEAVES FOUR PEOPLE DEAD IN INDIANA, FAMILY SAYS
BY MIKE STUNSON- https://www.newsobserver.com/ MARCH 16, 2021 Four members of an Indianapolis family were shot and killed Saturday, leading officers on a daylong manhunt to find the suspect and his 6-month-old child he is accused of kidnapping, police said. Family members believe the quadruple homicide was over stimulus check money that the suspect, 25-year-old Malik Halfacre, had demanded from the mother of his child. The mother, Jeanettrius Moore, was shot but managed to get out of the house, according to WISH-TV. Her 7-year-old daughter, mother, brother and cousin did not escape. “I said, ‘Why did he shoot you?’ neighbor Craig Jackson recalled as Moore knocked on his door Saturday night, WISH-TV reported. “And her exact words were, ‘Stimulus money.’ “Her exact words were, ‘I am the only one who got away. He killed the rest of them.’” Moore was taken to the hospital in critical condition after police arrived, authorities said. Family members say she was released on Monday, according to WISH-TV. - P 14
