Christopher Raemisch, 52, of Winter Haven, Florida, was killed on July 31, 2022, in the garage of his home. Deputies found his body with multiple gunshot wounds and 14 spent shell casings from a Sig Sauer 9mm handgun at the scene. The shooting occurred at the house he shared with his 21-year-old son, Kyle Raemisch.
Kyle called 911 that morning and admitted to shooting his father multiple times, including once to the head, telling the dispatcher he had been held hostage for far too long. He also reportedly said his father had been trying to kill him with money, a statement that drew attention during the call. Bullet holes were found in the garage door and a surfboard, evidence of the violent encounter.
Kyle was arrested, booked into the Polk County Jail, charged with first-degree murder, and requested a lawyer after being read his Miranda Rights. Investigators noted Kyle had a history of violent behavior and previous Baker Act detentions. The victim was a chiropractor known in the Winter Haven community.
