Andra Resa Sachs, 54, was found dead in her San Juan Capistrano home on February 9, 2014, after a 911 call brought Orange County sheriff’s deputies to the residence. Deputies discovered Andra and her ex-husband, Bradford Hans Sachs, both shot multiple times in their bed; their 8-year-old son, Landon, was found critically injured but survived. Investigators reported no signs of forced entry and noted the home required a security code for access.

Less than a month later, 19-year-old Ashton Colby Sachs was arrested and charged in the killings and the attempted murders of his siblings. Ashton, who had been attending college in Washington state, confessed and said he drove to California intending to kill his parents. A .22-caliber semiautomatic rifle later recovered from his car was identified as the weapon used. He told authorities he had personal problems and felt neglected by his parents but did not give a clear motive. Ashton was convicted of two counts of first-degree murder and two counts of attempted murder and received multiple life terms without parole. Landon survived but was paralyzed from the waist down; he later became a competitive wheelchair tennis player.

Does anyone have information about the family’s life before February 2014 or knew the Sachs children who might shed light on warning signs?
