The Carnation, Washington shooting was a domestic mass shooting that occurred on December 24, 2007 inside a home at Carnation, Washington near Seattle, Washington.
Victims
According to friends and neighbors, the dead were: Michele Anderson's father and mother, Wayne Scott Anderson, 60, a Boeing engineer, and postal worker Judy Anderson, 61, at whose home the shootings occurred; Scott Anderson, Michele's brother; his wife, Erica; and their two children, 6-year-old Olivia and 3-year-old Nathan.[1]
Perpetrator(s)
The Seattle Times reports two people have been arrested in this case. [2] Michele Kristen Anderson, the 29-year-old daughter of Judy and Wayne Anderson, who own the property where the shooting occurred, has been booked into the King County Jail on six counts of suspicion of homicide, along with her boyfriend, Joseph Thomas McEnroe, 29. Investigators have not pinpointed a motive for the slayings, but believe that a dispute over money may have lead to the killings.
The pair, who waived their right to appear in court, could be charged as soon as Friday in the deaths of Anderson's family, including a 6-year-old girl and 3-year-old boy.
Court papers say the two have admitted to the killing. [3]
