Courtney Gordon, 38, was a cousin visiting the home. Used a steak knife to murder two children and two adults, plus 61-year old woman stabbed and in critical condition. The bastard also started a fire in the LR. Responding cops saw Gordon leaving the house with a suitcase; asked Gordon what was up. In reply Gordon stabbed one officer in the neck and the other in the head. Despite being stabbed, one of them managed to shoot/kill the monster.
Black American male. Homeless. Prior arrest for attempted strangulation in a domestic incident (but nothing in Queens or at the victim’s home). Mental issues/depressed. Family tried to help/at wits end. Sad story similar to far too many.
Thank you.
