One of the subplots of the Arivaca murder case has been that California investigators suspect Jason Bush and Shawna Forde of involvement in a burglary and home invasion near Redding. These crimes occurred nine days after the killings in Arivaca of Raul Junior Flores and his daughter Brisenia.
Previously investigators had established, through credit card records and witness identifications, that Bush and Forde were staying at a motel in Cottonwood, Calif. from June 6 to June 9.
Now, Investigator Rex Berry of the Redding police tells me that a witness who apparently participated in the burglary has pointed to Bush and Forde as perpetrators. The burglary took place at the home of Forde’s half-brother, Merrill Metzger, on June 8, and the home invasion took place later that day at the home of Forde’s mother’s best friends, Peter and Lyn Myers, who live outside Redding.
