MA - Laurie Melchionda, 59, fatally shot by former neighbor, Braintree, 17 June 2020 *arrest*

[Yemelyan]

A nurse was shot in her doorway and killed by a man who last lived in her neighborhood six years ago. Apparently they had a history of disputes.

Hmm....I wonder what the disputes were about.

The shooter, Robert Bonang, has an extremely strange social media presence where he has been copy-pasting an almost identical message about seeking information about cars and random names in his neighborhood in 2010-11. No friends, no responses, no connection with his family. I very strongly suspect issues with mental health.

Oh no. Without looking at his account I have a sudden reminder of those hyper paranoid that believe in gang stalking. This poor woman and her family.
ETA- just checked out his profile on Facebook-yikes

Sources told WBZ-TV’s I-Team Bonang was dressed as a package delivery person at the time of the shooting. Morrissey would only say he was wearing a “brown-type color uniform.”

I randomly stumbled on the gangstalking subreddit last week, and this guys Facebook page would fit right in with the posts on the subreddit. I totally agree he probably thinks he’s being gangstalked.

He puts his old address on his Facebook page, and it seems to be right across the street from where Laurie lives. I would bet those pictures he posted are of her house. Maybe he thought she was gang stalking him or involved in some way. Jmo

I find it ironic he is publicly sharing his information and yet seems so paranoid? Must be a mental health issue.

Police report details shooting of Braintree woman by 'fake UPS driver' | Boston.com

Police had dealt with Bonang twice, once in June 2014 when he was “sectioned,” or detained over mental health concerns. The other time was in 2009, when he and his sister had an argument. She reportedly told police at the time that he “had been ‘institutionalized’ on more than one occasion.”

That poor woman. Rest in peace, Laurie.

Approaching the area from the sidewalk, the neighbor said he saw Bonang, who appeared to be dazed, begin shooting about six rounds into the ground.

Via investigation, police found out Bonang had lived across the street from Melchionda “for several decades.” His parents had lived there, and, when they died, the house was sold and he moved away about five years ago. In the past, he had allegedly accused neighbors of “watching and following him,” which was found to be untrue, the report says.
