The spree began on May 30 and ended June 4, when the shooter killed himself as police closed in.[1][2] The shooter was Dwight Lamon Jones, aged 56.[2] The story was covered on Dateline NBC on June 29, 2018. ShootingsThe victims of the initial shootings were a noted forensic psychiatrist, two paralegals, and a counselor; all were shot within 24 hours of each other and within a 10 mile radius in Scottsdale and Phoenix. The other two victims were discovered June 4.[3] Steven Pitt (59), a well-known forensic psychiatrist was shot and killed outside his office at 5:20pm on Thursday 31 May.[4] Pitt had examined Jones in connection with a "bitter" divorce.[2][5] In 2006 Pitt helped the police identify the Baseline killer who had raped and murdered a series of women in Phoenix, Arizona.[4][6]Veleria Sharp (48), and Laura Anderson (49), paralegals, were shot and killed at 2:15pm on Friday, 1 June in the downtown Scottsdale offices of Burt, Feldman, Grenier, the law firm where they worked.[1][5] A lawyer at the firm had worked on the Jones divorce.[7] By 11:30 pm on Friday June 1, police knew that the same gun had been used to kill Anderson, Sharp and Pitt.[5] The body of Marshall Levine (72), a psychologist and counselor, was found just after midnight, as Friday turned to Saturday, June 2, in his Scottsdale office.[1] Levine was subletting his office from a woman who had provided counseling services to his son during the divorce, Jones' intended target.[2][5] By Sunday afternoon, police had Jones under surveillance as he drove around Fountain Hills in his gold Mercedes Benz. At one point, Jones ditched a small bag containing a .22-caliber pistol, which police later determined to belong to one of two people, 70-year-old Mary Simmons and 72-year-old Bryon Thomas, who were shot and killed inside a Fountain Hills home. Their bodies were not discovered until Monday, 4 June. Police stated that ballistics ruled out the 22-caliber gun from having been used in any of the shootings.[5] InvestigationThe break in the investigation came when a retired Phoenix police officer married to Jones' ex-wife issued a statement saying her current husband, a retired Phoenix police detective, "recognized the connection to my divorce and the three crime scenes and he notified the Phoenix Police violent crime unit on Saturday (June 2) night."[2][7] Once the Jones was made a suspect, a DNA sample was obtained from a relative of Jones and matched to a DNA sample from a recovered shell casing.[3] PerpetratorThe perpetrator was identified as Dwight Lamon Jones (56) who had been previously been arrested.[3] According to Rich Slavin, an assistant chief with the Scottsdale Police Department, Jones was arrested in 2008 or 2009 on charges of domestic violence, alleging that he mistreated his wife and a child.[7] Jones had been living at Extended Stay hotels for the past nine years.[7] His former wife told reporters that she "feared for my safety for the past nine years."[7] In her statement she continued with "He was a very emotionally disturbed person as the court records will confirm."[3] Less than a week before the spree killings Jones used social media to attempt to bring forward allegations that his ex-wife was the abuser and not Jones.[8] Jones created almost 10 hours of content outlining what he viewed as a conspiracy by his ex-wife, psychiatrists, lawyers and the Maricopa County Judicial system to rig a divorce and custody case to steal his son from him.[9] References1. ^1 2 {{cite news |last1=Phillips |first1=Kristine |title=Suspect in Arizona killings fatally shoots himself in hotel room as officers close in, police say |url=https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/true-crime/wp/2018/06/04/suspect-in-arizona-killings-fatally-shoots-himself-in-hotel-room-as-officers-close-in-police-say/ |accessdate=4 June 2018 |publisher=Washington Post |date=4 June 2018}} {{DEFAULTSORT:Scottsdale spree shootings}}2. ^1 2 3 {{cite news |last1=Ellis |first1=Ralph |last2=Park |first2=Madison |last3=Moshtaghian |first3=Artemis |last4=Almasy |first4=Steve |title=DNA, shoe leather help Arizona police identify killer of 6 |url=https://www.cnn.com/2018/06/04/us/arizona-killings-timeline/index.html |accessdate=5 June 2018 |publisher=CNN |date=4 June 2018}} 3. ^1 2 3 {{Cite news|url=https://www.cnn.com/2018/06/04/us/scottsdale-killings-suspect/index.html|title=Scottsdale homicide suspect identified; he's linked to six killings|last=CNN|first=Ralph Ellis, Eric Levenson and Artemis Moshtaghian,|work=CNN|access-date=2018-09-18}} 4. ^1 {{cite news |title=Forensic Psychiatrist Who Aided JonBenet Ramsey Probe Killed |url=https://www.nytimes.com/aponline/2018/06/01/us/ap-us-forensic-psychiatrist-shooting-death.html |accessdate=4 June 2018 |agency=AP |publisher=New York Times |date=1 June 2018}} 5. ^1 2 3 4 {{cite news |last1=Ryman |first1=Ann |last2=Garcia |first2=Uriel |title=Six people killed by Scottsdale murder suspect, police say |url=https://www.azcentral.com/story/news/local/scottsdale-breaking/2018/06/04/scottsdale-police-closing-murder-suspect/668075002/ |accessdate=5 June 2018 |publisher=The Arizona Republic |date=4 June 2018}} 6. ^{{cite news |last1=Williams |first1=Corey |title=Michigan shooter has residents on edge |url=https://search.proquest.com/news/docview/1125155998/43BE7D076E7D4DB3PQ/2?accountid=10226 |accessdate=5 June 2018 |publisher=Telegraph Herald |date=1 November 2012}} 7. ^1 2 3 4 5 {{cite news |last1=Stevens |first1=Matt |last2=Haag |first2=Matthew |title=Arizona Man Left a Trail of 6 Bodies, Police Believe, Then Added His Own |url=https://www.nytimes.com/2018/06/04/us/jonbenet-ramsey-psychiatrist-killed.html |accessdate=5 June 2018 |publisher=New York Times |date=4 June 2018}} 8. ^{{Cite news|url=https://www.phoenixnewtimes.com/news/scottsdale-shooting-suspect-sought-media-attention-twitter-10495176|title=Days Before Shooting Started, Scottsdale Murder Suspect Sought Media Attention|last=Flaherty|first=Joseph|date=2018-06-06|work=Phoenix New Times|access-date=2018-09-18}} 9. ^{{Cite news|url=https://www.azcentral.com/story/news/local/scottsdale-breaking/2018/06/04/dwight-jones-scottsdale-shooting-suspect-left-divorce-records-youtube-grudges/669867002/|title=Scottsdale shooting suspect left divorce full of discord, YouTube channel full of grudges|work=azcentral|access-date=2018-09-18|language=en}} 12 : 2018 in Arizona|2018 mass shootings in the United States|2018 murders in the United States|Deaths by firearm in Arizona|History of Tucson, Arizona|June 2018 crimes in the United States|Mass shootings in Arizona|May 2018 crimes in the United States|Murder in Arizona|Spree shootings in the United States|Mass shootings in the United States|Attacks in the United States in 2018 |
