What made a man so incensed, that he dressed up like Santa Claus, drove up to his former in-laws' house and sprayed them with bullets, killing 9 of them in the process? It was at a Christmas eve party at the home of his former in-laws, his ex-wife Sylvia Pardo's parents, Joseph and Alicia Ortega; which he thereafter demolished in an explosive blaze. Icheoku says, it is rage! Rage against a society which have so much empowered women that they have turned men into the receiving receptacles of their every whims. Simply put, it is this rage that is now manifested in this Christmas-eve massacre in Covina California, United States of America! This unique and weird Father Christmas brought to his ex-in-laws, some Christmas present from the north pole made of hot leads. He was driven to the ends by a very nasty and bitter divorce, a job lost and a state of morbid hopelessness. He was simply speaking, forlorn! His name was Bruce Jeffrey Pardo, 45, pictured above; and he does not even look like a typical mass-murderer! He looks more like the Scott Peterson type. BJP was simply RED and even holds a bachelor's and master's degree in electrical engineering; and was employed at ITT Electronic Systems, Radar Systems, in Van Nuys before he was laid off.
BJP appeared at the ex-inlaws front door with only one mission in his mind - to completely eradicate his ex-wife's family from the face of the earth! In an executioner's style, BJP meticulously shot nine members of his ex-wife's immediate family to death, including his ex-wife, her parents, brothers and sisters as well as some other relatives and friends. To ensure that his vicious plan was completely carried out, after the shooting, he set the home ablaze, just in case anyone was hiding somewhere in the house beyond the reach of his bullet. BJP wearing a Santa Claus suit, was armed with four guns and carrying a fuel-spraying device wrapped like a present, when he showed up at the home at 11:30 p.m. Wednesday December 24th, 2008 as the party of about 25 people was under way. BJP fired a shot into the face of an 8-year-old girl who answered the door and then systematically targeted relatives of his ex-wife, while seemingly permitting other non-family member guests to flee. BJP later retrieved a contraption which he had come with, that mixed carbon dioxide and/or oxygen with high-octane racing fuel. He sprayed it inside the house and ignited it, resulting to an explosion, completely destroyed the house and its contents including some of the gathered party-goers. Subsequently, BJP drove to his brother's home in a neighbouring city of Sylmar where he shot himself to death. However, before committing suicide, BJP booby-trapped his rental car which later exploded as a bomb squad tried to disarm it.
The stunning thing about this massacre was that BJP had no prior criminal record or any history of domestic violence whatsoever. He was known to his neighbours and friends as a friendly man who always walked his dog and who was also a volunteer usher at the local Redeemer Catholic Church in his city of Montrose, California. So whatever the trigger might have been, it must be so seething indeed to catapult him from his near and almost angelic status to such a savage beast that caused a family to simply cease to exist! Icheoku says that BJP possibly snapped following his just concluded nasty, bitter, contentious and costly divorce battle which he felt, dealt him a bad card unfairly. He couldn't take it and the result was a family that is now completely destroyed and wiped out! What a nightmare before Christmas!
To the intending or soon to be ex-wife, Icheoku says, please do not make the parting so bitter and acrimonious that some very unintended consequence results. Always think about the possible innocent third parties who may be hurt in a feuding war with your ex-husband. But to the so-determined ex-wife to be, while taking your ex-husband to the cleaners, please pause to ponder that he may be just another lunatic like Mr. Bruce Jeffrey Pardo of Covina, California who might come calling with guns and explosives for his jaundiced idea of a pay-back! So in any event, weigh your options very well and advise your actions accordingly and safely.
