Cult leader Gerald Cruz used sleep
deprivation and occult beliefs to manipulate followers into murdering
four people in attacks with baseball bats and knives. James Beck and
Ricky Vieira were condemned to death while two others received life
sentences. He was convicted of four counts of murder. His victims include Richard Ritchey, Darlene Paris, Franklin Raper, and Dennis Colwell.

location known as “the Camp” at 4150 Finney Road in Salida in Stanislaus

Defendant lived in a trailer with codefendant David Beck, near a house
occupied by codefendant Gerald Cruz and his wife. Codefendant Jason
LaMarsh lived in another nearby trailer. Cruz was the acknowledged
leader of this informal group. Beck was generally in charge of
discipline. Everyone in the group pooled their money. Ron Willey was
also associated with the group, but did not live at the Camp during the
relevant time period. Defendant held a low status within the group.
Michelle Evans,2

girlfriend, testified that defendant was a “slave” to the other members
of the group, and was given such tasks as cooking, bathing Cruz's
children, and undertaking various repairs. According to her testimony,
defendant was beaten by Beck, at Cruz's order, for various deficiencies
in his work. He was also given the task of guarding the camp late
into the night, as well as often spending days doing construction work.
Cruz
and Beck bought assault weapons and several camouflage masks and
knives. Two weeks before the murders, they purchased a police-style
baton.
