William Inmon, 21, and his girlfriend, Storm Williams, 44, Jeffrey Johnson, 43, and his wife, Melissa Johnson, 37

Preliminary hearings are scheduled for 21-year-old William Inmon and 44-year-old Storm Williams, who face first-degree murder charges in the death of Ricky Flores of St. Johns.

Authorities believe 43-year-old Jeffrey Johnson solicited the killing of his daughter's boyfriend. He's charged with conspiracy and solicitation to commit murder. His wife, 37-year-old Melissa Johnson, is charged with hindering prosecution and giving false information to law enforcement.

Authorities say Inmon and Williams described how they murdered Ricky, burned his body and buried it in a wilderness area.

Ricky's body was recovered two weeks after his mother reported him missing on Aug. 14.

A man charged with killing a 16-year-old St. Johns boy took the body to the home of the man police suspect hired him to commit the crime before burying the remains, court documents state.

Suspect William Inmon transported the body of Ricky Flores to the home of Jeffrey Johnson to “show Jeff that the job was done,” according to a statement of probable cause filed in Apache County Superior Court.

Flores was dating the daughter of the 43-year-old Johnson. The teenagers had a baby together a year ago.

Apache County sheriff’s spokesman Sgt. Richard Guinn said the relationship had been a source of conflict between Flores and the girl’s family.

The victim’s mother reported him missing on Aug. 14 after he left home without disclosing his plans and didn’t take any clothing or his cell phone charger. She told police he had a gun strapped to his hip. Later in the day, she received a text message saying he was with Inmon, according to court documents.

Inmon initially told authorities he and Williams dropped Flores in town that night.

Authorities say they later led them to a shallow grave and described how they murdered Flores, burned his body and buried it in a forest wilderness area.

September 30,2009

Inmon, 21, pleaded guilty to that slaying and confessed to the separate shooting deaths of 60-year-old Daniel Achten and 72-year-old William “Stoney” McCarragher, Apache County Attorney Michael Whiting said.

Achten was reported missing in March. McCarragher was found shot to death in his bed in 2007. Both men lived alone on rural properties outside of St. Johns.

Whiting said Inmon expressed remorse about killing Flores — the two were known to be friends. But Inmon told authorities that he was proud of the other two slayings, saying that both of them needed to go, Whiting said.

“He is ridding society of less-than-desirable people, in his mind. People he determines should not be in society,” Whiting said.

Inmon had planned to kill two others, including a drug dealer, Whiting said.

Talk about Crackheads... Cracked brains, for sure!!

Inmon’s friend, Joseph Roberts, faces a first-degree murder charge in McCarragher’s death. The 22-year-old is also charged with concealment of a dead body, tampering with evidence, hindering prosecution and mutilating a human body in Achten’s death, authorities said.

Don't see his Roberts) mug photo, but I'll find it.....

Prosecutors have agreed not to pursue the death penalty because Inmon was cooperating with authorities. He faces 25 years to life on each count of first-degree murder.

Joseph Roberts

Roberts, faces a first-degree murder charge in William McCarragher's death. He is also charged with concealment of a dead body, tampering with evidence, hindering prosecution and mutilating a human body in Daniel Achten's death, authorities said.

McCarragher was the first of Inmon's three known victims, but authorities say they are investigating whether Inmon was involved in at least two additional murders.

McCarragher lived on a small rural ranch outside of St. Johns and was known to carry large amounts of money, sometimes thousands of dollars.

Inmon, who was interviewed in 2007 as a potential suspect in McCarragher's death, denied shooting him at the time and told authorities "the whole town is suspect because a lot of people did not care for Stoney."

McCarragher often employed teenagers for odd jobs. Inmon recently told prosecutors that he was working on the man's property in 2007 when McCarragher inappropriately touched him.

Inmon told authorities that Achten used drugs, shot Inmon's dog and generally mistreated people, so he believed he had a duty to rid society of him.

Inmon confronted Achten about killing the dog, then became enraged when Achten denied the accusation, prosecutors said. Inmon told authorities he chased Achten toward a motor home, then shot him multiple times inside the home with a .22-caliber rifle.

Kind of Grandiose about killing, huh?

**sheevaa** · October 2nd, 2009, 12:49 AM

Maybe I'm an asshole, but I'm not feeling a whole lot of boo hoo for the victims.I know you shouldn't judge a book by it's cover, but Ricky didn't look like he was a great help to society or anything. The other shot a dog, that's an auto-asshole in my books...don't know about the third. Then, the murderers get caught. We all win!

Course, that isn't very nice of me, is it? *holds out arms* Go ahead, crucify me.

Is this normal or did the hit man not own a camera!!

He basically ratted himself out.

A scruffy 21-year-old walked into the police station in the small eastern Arizona town of Springerville, winded after running the 2 blocks there from his home. He wanted to tell the police chief that cops from out of town were in his jurisdiction.

“There’s people in your town,” William Inmon told Chief Steve West, then suggested that West run them off.

West saw no harm in hearing out the gangly young man’s complaints about the officers from nearby St. Johns. He then listened for hours as Inmon told stories of a troubled childhood, the weapons he owned, and, finally, that the officers were investigating the killing of 16-year-old Ricky Flores from their town.

Then, authorities say, Inmon admitted killing the teenager.

Inmon had hoped to divert attention from himself by sprinting to the police station, authorities said. Instead, his world came tumbling down. On Sept. 30, he pleaded guilty to killing Flores and to two other murders. He proclaimed himself a serial killer, and said his plans to kill two more times had been thwarted.
[...]

In each murder to which Inmon admitted, he had at least one accomplice, but authorities say he was the driving force, motivated by a desire to rid society of those who didn’t live up to his standards. Four other people have been arrested in the three slayings that started in 2007 and ended with Flores in August.
[...]

Inmon’s fall began when St. Johns police served a search warrant at the home he shared with his girlfriend. Inmon went to West “because everyone says you’ll listen,” he told the chief. “He thought that I would say ’it’s my jurisdiction, get out of my jurisdiction,’ but police departments just don’t do that,” West said.

“He was nervous because more than likely they were close,” West said.

Inmon confessed to Flores’ murder after Apache County investigator Brian Hounshell joined West in the interview. Hounshell said they repeatedly told Inmon he didn’t have to keep talking and was free to leave, but he pressed on.

Weeks later, Inmon admitted to fatally shooting William “Stoney” McCarragher, 72, and Daniel Achten, 60, as part of a deal that spares him the death penalty. Now awaiting sentencing on three counts of first-degree murder, Inmon didn’t respond to an interview request and his lawyer had no comment.

Just a guess, here, but I'm thinking that Inmon just wanted to kill people, so he justified it to the Chief, by telling the "wrongs" they had committed against himself and society. I don't believe he was molested by McGarragher, he wanted to take McGarraghers money, who btw, was known to carry large sums of cash. Mr. Achten didn't kill any dog, Inmon probably did that himself, in a cracked out stupor, and just wanted to kill Achten for the thrill, or for Achtens drugs!
Inmon and Flores were buddies, for goodness sakes and he killed him!!
If Inmon hadn't confessed and been arrested, he would find another and another to kill, to boost his own ego, evil scrawny serial-killer-twatstain!!

What. the. hell??

FLAGSTAFF- An Apache County judge has dropped charges against an eastern Arizona man accused of murder, and concealing and mutilating a human body -- a move that prosecutors said was uncalled for in the case.
Superior Court Judge Donna Grimsley said investigators violated Joseph Roberts' rights when they interviewed him without his attorney last year. Grimsley dismissed the charges with prejudice, meaning they can't be refiled.

"The court is of the view that the flagrant and manipulative subversion of the Sixth Amendment constitutional rights in this case trumps all other considerations and that dismissal is the only remedy that will preserve the defendant's inviolable constitutional right," Grimsley said in an order this week.

The Apache County attorney's office was disqualified from the case after the eight-minute interview in February, in which its investigators discussed a plea agreement with Roberts ahead of a preliminary hearing.

Prosecutors said Roberts and a friend, William Inmon, simultaneously shot McCarragher through his bedroom window with .22-caliber rifles. They contend Inmon recruited Roberts to help dispose of Achten's body because he was too heavy. The two dragged Achten out of his motor home using rope and a vehicle, then burned him on his property before burying the body, prosecutors alleged.

Inmon pleaded guilty in the deaths of McCarragher, Achten and 16-year-old Ricky Flores as part of a deal to spare him from the death penalty. His sentencing date hasn't been set.

This, Joseph Roberts and his buddy, Inmon, need to just die! Somebody, get to it!
