January 13, 2025, midnight. Douglas and Jillian Dietz sang "Happy Birthday" to their son Clayton, who had just turned 11. They told him to go to bed. Clayton got mad—his Nintendo Switch had been confiscated. At 3:00 a.m., Pennsylvania State Police received a 911 call about a gunshot victim at the family's Duncannon duplex. Douglas Dietz, 42, was dead in his bed with a gunshot wound to the head. Their son Clayton was in the kitchen, and a state trooper heard him say: "I killed Daddy."

Clayton had been searching for his confiscated Nintendo Switch when he found keys to the gun safe in his father's drawer. Thinking the console might be inside, he opened it and found a revolver instead. Court documents state Clayton loaded the gun, pulled back the hammer, and walked into his parents' bedroom through a connecting closet. Douglas was asleep next to Jillian when Clayton fired, shooting his father in the head.

Jillian woke to a loud bang and smell like fireworks. She tried to wake Douglas but realized he wasn't responding, then saw blood dripping onto the bed. Clayton appeared in the closet saying "He's dead" before running downstairs yelling "My dad's dead." When asked what he thought would happen when he fired the gun, Clayton told investigators he was mad and hadn't thought about the consequences. Court documents state he admitted "he had someone in mind who he was going to shoot." Jillian later heard Clayton yell: "I killed my dad. I hate myself."

Douglas and Jillian had adopted Clayton in 2018 when he was 7 years old. Clayton was arrested and charged with criminal homicide. In Pennsylvania, homicide charges automatically begin in adult criminal court, even for children as young as 11. The defense must request a hearing to transfer the case to juvenile court and prove the child would benefit from rehabilitation. If convicted in adult court, Clayton could face life in prison.

Clayton's bail was denied January 13, 2025. He was held at Perry County Prison. On February 19, 2025, Clayton appeared in court handcuffed and in shackles. His mother Jillian sat next to him. Videos show Clayton tripping as he entered, telling his mother his handcuffs were hurting. He waived his preliminary hearing. Defense attorney Dave Wilson said his goal is to get Clayton into juvenile court. Next court appearance expected in May.

On November 20, 2018, 5:01 AM. Paul Caneiro, 51, stood outside his burning Ocean Township, New Jersey home with his wife and two daughters next to their white Porsche. A red gas can sat in the driveway. He told police he didn't know who would target his family. Seven hours later at 12:38 PM, his brother Keith Caneiro's mansion in nearby Colts Neck was on fire. Keith, 50, was shot dead on the lawn once in the back, four times in the head. Inside: his wife Jennifer, 45, shot and stabbed. Son Jesse, 11, stabbed multiple times. Daughter Sophia, 8, stabbed multiple times.Paul and Keith were business partners for 31 years. Best friends. Best men at each other's weddings. Keith owned 90% of their tech firm Square One, Paul owned 10%. They co-owned a pest control business equally. But in 2012, Paul was badly injured in a car accident. His personality changed. Prosecutors say he started stealing $11,000 per month for personal use. Keith discovered it. An indictment alleged Paul stole $75,000 total. A lawsuit claimed he took $90,000 from the kids' college fund.Keith wanted out. He was cutting off Paul's $225,000 salary. On November 19 at 7 PM, Keith emailed business associates: money was missing, he was stopping payments to Paul's wife. Seven hours later, surveillance captured Paul's Porsche leaving his home, returning at 4 AM. At 1:30 AM, Paul walked up to Keith's home security system, the cameras stopped. He claimed he'd turned it off for Wi-Fi issues, but it was hard-wired. At 3 AM, neighbors heard gunshots. Prosecutors say Paul killed Keith outside, then murdered Jennifer, Jesse and Sophia inside before setting a basement fire. He returned home and set his own house ablaze to make it look like both families were targeted.Police found bloody jeans and a latex glove in Paul's basement. DNA testing using STRmix software: Sophia's blood. The DNA was 2.7 septillion times more likely to be hers. They found a 9mm Sig Sauer with suppressor in Paul's car. If Keith's family died, Paul would get $1.5 million in life insurance.Paul was charged November 29, 2018 four murders, arson, weapons, theft, 16 counts total. He pleaded not guilty. Trial was delayed by COVID-19 and legal battles over DNA evidence and the seized security system. Both were allowed after New Jersey Supreme Court appeals. Trial began January 12, 2025. Paul's daughters testified he was distraught learning everyone died. Defense blamed a third brother who also stood to gain insurance money. On February 13, 2025, the jury deliberated 5 hours: guilty on all 15 counts. Paul showed no emotion. Jennifer's mother mouthed "Thank you" to the jury. Paul faces life without parole.
