The Wakefield massacre occurred on Tuesday, December 26, 2000, at Edgewater Technology in Wakefield, Massachusetts, United States of America, during which the gunman, Michael "Mucko" McDermott, an application support employee, shot and killed seven co-workers. The weapons he used were an AK-47 variant, a 12-gauge shotgun, and a .32 caliber pistol. He fired off a total of 37 rounds, shooting his victims in the back of the head repeatedly. Police later found a .460-calibre Weatherby Mark V rifle at the defendant's work station. He was found by police sitting calmly and stated that he did not speak German. At trial, he stated that he was born without a soul and that God had allowed him to earn a soul by traveling back in time to kill Nazis. McDermott claimed he had "traveled back in time and killed Hitler and the last 6 Nazis." However, the prosecution asserted that the killings were motivated by his employer's garnishment of his wages for the IRS, to pay taxes that he owed. He was found guilty of seven counts of first degree murder and sentenced to seven consecutive life sentences without the possibility of parole. Entry and eventual capture was completed by a Regional SWAT Team from the Northeast Massachusetts Law Enforcement Council (N.E.M.L.E.C.) of which Wakefield Police are a member. == Fatalities == *Craig Wood, 29, human resources *Janice Haggerty, 46, office manager *Jennifer Bragg Capobianco, 29, marketing *Cheryl Troy, 50, vice president of human resources *Rose Manfredi, 48, accountant in payroll department *Louis Javelle, 58, director of consulting *Paul Marceau, 36, development technician 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Wakefield massacre」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
