In May 2024, multiple stabbing incidents occurred near Boston, Massachusetts. These include the stabbing of four girls at a movie theater in Braintree and of two McDonald's employees in Plymouth. A suspect has been formally charged in court with the latter. The same suspect is also being investigated in connection with a stabbing death in Deep River, Connecticut.[1] The mother of three of the girls who were stabbed in the theater said the suspect was laughing the whole time.[2]
Jared Ravizza (born 1997/98)[1] was arrested in Sandwich, Massachusetts, after a police chase that ended in a fiery car crash and the suspect being hospitalized for minor injuries.[3] After a mental health evaluation, a doctor said the suspect has "delusions, trouble focusing and voices in his head that tell him to do things".[4]
Background[edit]
In April 2024, Ravizza's father called police claiming his son had attacked him. When officers showed up, Ravizza screamed at them, resisted arrest, and expressed belief in numerous conspiracy theories about various topics.[1]
At the time of the attack, Ravizza was reportedly in the process of obtaining a legal name change to Jared Love Jones.[5]
Ravizza is also being investigated in connection with the death of a Deep River, Connecticut man that same day.[6]
