Marshey St. Christopher Wesson was 1 year old when he was killed on March 12, 2004, in Fresno, California. His death occurred during a standoff between Fresno police and Marcus Delon Wesson, who retreated into his home and shot nine of his children, including Marshey, through the eye with a .22 caliber handgun. The victims were found in a bedroom that contained antique coffins.

Investigators later described a pattern of abuse and control within the household: Marcus Wesson had isolated and homeschooled his children, promulgated a belief that he was a Christ-like figure, and fathered many children through incestuous relationships with his daughters and nieces. Marcus Wesson was arrested the same day and subsequently charged. He was convicted of nine counts of first-degree murder and 14 counts of forcible sexual assault, and was sentenced to death on June 27, 2005.

Does anyone have memories of Marshey or information about the family’s life in Fresno that could add context to what happened?
