LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - California homicide detectives sought clues on Wednesday to the slayings of six people whose bodies were found strewn in a desolate patch of the Mojave Desert, according to the San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department.

Sheriff's deputies responding to a call discovered the bodies on Tuesday night in a remote area of flat desert scrub off Highway 395 near the community of El Mirage, some 60 miles(97 km) northeast of Los Angeles, sheriff's spokesperson Mara Rodriguez told reporters.

Neither the gender, nor ages of the victims were immediately available.

Officials said the cause and manner of deaths had yet to be confirmed, but the Victor Valley News Group reported that the victims had been shot. Officials initially reported the discovery of five bodies, but Rodriguez said the remains of a sixth victim had been found during the investigation.

Los Angeles television station KTLA-TV said aerial footage from the scene showed multiple bloodied bodies on the ground with dozens of evidence markers and bullet casings surrounding them. Some of the victims also appeared to have been burned, the TV station said, adding that the images were too graphic to air.

I assume this was drug cartels. This type of incident is becoming more and more common as we create and import a society that respects no lives or laws at all.

California is becoming the ‘new’ Mexico of the United States.

Just a lover’s spat. Some gal took two hits on a bong and went on a THC-fueled rampage. The judge will hit her with 100 hours of community service.

That’s one and a half “mass killings” for the “democrazy” libs’ anti-Second Amendment body count.

"This type of incident is becoming more and more common as we create and import a society that respects no lives or laws at all."

The same disregard for life seen with the DemonKKKrats in their death cult of abortion, is equivalent to the homicides performed by lawless savages.

That’s what it sounds like to me, as well.

Back in the 80's my friends and I spent a lot of time exploring the Mojave Desert east of Los Angeles. Maybe once or twice we came across a sketchy character or two, but they definitely weren't gang members, meth lab operators, or marijuana growers.

Now I would be afraid to go out to the desert. I've heard stories of a car driving up to a group of people and demanding all of their money, etc. The guy getting out of the car would point up into the hills and claim there was a sniper there who would shoot them if they didn't comply. What to do?

Also, Obama has moved a lot of his children out to the desert, so that places that were wide open and vacant are now ghettos. The Dems claim to be against sprawl and yet they have moved mobs of degenerates out to the edges of LA, i.e. the desert.

How long will it be before the deserts around LA will be as dangerous as the Darien Gap?

I’m sure this was just a problem with the people’s GPS and they were lost in the desert. No biggie.

If there was no market for the drugs they sell and transport, these guys and countless others would not be dead. This all starts with an individual wanting to buy and use drugs.

I used to camp out at El Mirage dry lake, go off roading etc....That was when California was nice and hadn’t been overrun with mental cases, illegals, foreign nationals, Communist and assorted violent lunatics.

Agreed.

Mass killings, corpse mutilation and heads dangling from overpasses by cartels are pretty common in northern Mexico. Its a short drive to the Mojave, and the cartel soldiers have been here for decades, with a huge upsurge in the past couple of years.

But the border is secure, so I’ve been told.

Don't kid yourself. There are more violent felons in the LA/Valley/OC area by far...And most those they find dead in the desert are not from the desert areas, but from LA/OC/SD areas...And some of those were dead before being driven to the desert for dumping.
