Crime
The defendant was living in a home along with his
brother James Corcoran, his sister Kelly Nieto, and her fiance’ Robert
Turner. On July 26, 1997 the defendant was upstairs while his brother
and Turner sat in the living room with friends Timothy Bricker and Doug
Stillwell. According to the defendant, he heard them talking about him,
so he went downstairs and confronted them. He first placed his 7 year
old niece in an upstairs bedroom to protect her from the gunfire, then
loaded his semi-automatic rifle. Before they had a chance to move, the
defendant shot and killed his brother, Turner, and Bricker. Stillwell
fled to the kitchen, but was cornered, shot and killed. The defendant
then laid down the rifle, went to a neighbor’s house, and asked them to
call the police. A search of the defendant’s room and secure attic, to
which only he had access, revealed over 30 firearms, several munitions,
explosives, guerilla tactic military issue books, and a copy of The
Turner Diaries. Corcoran asserted an insanity defense based upon his
diagnosis as having either a paranoid or schizotypal personality
disorder. . Their
victim are Jack and Kathryn Corcoran James Corcoran, Robert
Scott Turner, Douglas A. Stillwell, Timothy G. Bricker.
