GUILTY WA - Janell Knight, Joseph Lamar, & Zachary Thompson, slain, Woodland, 15 July 2016

[TeaTime]

Okay, let me see if I have this:

Brent Luyster (BL) got a ride from his friend Thompson (who most recently posted BL'S bail) from a house in Vancouver where BL was hanging out/whatever with his girlfriend, Sibley, and their toddler, to a house in Woodlands where Lamar and his girlfriend Knight, lived. A woman named Leigh was there, as well as BL's 12 year old son.

Sibley showed up later in and SUV with the toddler, who was asleep in the vehicle.

At some point BL shot and killed Lamar, Knight and Thompson and wounded Leigh when she ran to the front of the house after hearing gunshots.

Leigh was unconscious for some time and when she awoke, everyone that wasn't dead was gone and she drove to a gas station for help.

BL is a Skin Head and has committed racially motivated crimes in the past but all the latest murder victims are white.

Probably nothing scares me more than racists in the woods.

Any motive yet?

Luyster’s hearing postponed to November 8

The attorney for a man potentially facing the death penalty in a Woodland triple homicide said there may be a conflict of interest with the Clark County Prosecuting Attorney’s Office.

Brent Luyster’s capital defense attorney, Bob Yoseph, on Wednesday raised several issues during his client’s scheduled arraignment in Clark County Superior Court. He requested, for a second time, that his client be formally charged at a later date.

Additionally, he voiced concerns over a deputy prosecutor who represented Luyster several years ago, before joining the prosecutor’s office.

Yoseph said he learned that the deputy prosecutor discussed the old case with others in the prosecutor’s office.

Sheriff’s office detective on leave following misconduct allegations

The detective - Deputy Kevin Harper - has been a detective in Clark County for almost 20 years.

A longtime major crimes detective with the Clark County Sheriff’s Office is on administrative leave following allegations of misconduct.

Sheriff Chuck Atkins has requested that Washington State Patrol’s Criminal Investigations Division investigate the allegations.

Harper is the lead investigator for numerous crimes charged in Clark County Superior Court, including the triple homicide suspect Brent Ward Luyster.

Scott Jackson, Chief Deputy at the Clark County Prosecuting Attorney’s Office, said that he didn’t have enough information on the allegations to know if they would affect any of Harper’s current or previous cases.

Girlfriend of suspect in triple murder sentenced

The woman who drove off with a man suspected of killing three people in July was sentenced to a year of community custody Friday, and she may testify in the ongoing triple-murder case.

White supremacy bares its ugly heart
Death of Vancouver teen, Woodland killings shine light on increasingly violent movement

However, it doesn’t take many people to cause “a lot of mayhem or misery,” Pitcavage added. “You don’t need a huge group for a hate crime to occur … or for a minority population to be terrorized.”

For example, Pitcavage said, the ADL has tracked Brent Luyster, the man accused in the Woodland triple homicide, for more than 10 years for hate crimes.

Though Luyster, a self-identified skinhead, doesn’t appear to be part of a formal white supremacy organization, he was involved in the 2001 beating of a black man in Vancouver’s Rosemere neighborhood, now called Rose Village. In March 2013, he and others threatened to kill an interracial couple cuddling at Vancouver’s QuarterDeck Bar.

Luyster appearances on the Four Decades of Hate timeline:

- July 16, 2001 — Brent Ward Luyster, Robert Luyster, Roy Thompson and Brandon Ericson attack a black man in Vancouver’s Rosemere neighborhood. All were convicted.

- March 18, 2013 — Brent Ward Luyster, brother Robert Luyster and Donald McElfish are accused of threatening to kill an interracial couple at Vancouver’s QuarterDeck Bar.

- July 15, 2016 — Documented white supremacist Brent Ward Luyster is accused of killing three people and injuring a fourth.

Luyster’s arraignment pushed back to Feb. 2017

Triple homicide suspect attempts Clark County jail escape, officials say

A man accused of shooting four people and killing three in July 2016 attempted to escape Sunday from the Clark County Jail days before he was scheduled to be arraigned, officials said.

The Clark County Jail is locked down until further notice while deputies investigate the circumstances of Brent Ward Luyster's escape attempt, Undersheriff Mike Cook said in a news release. The incident forced a significant police response, said Israel Young, who saw the police respond to the escape.
