On the night of July 22, 2015, seven-year-old Christopher Bever was among five members of the Bever family murdered inside their home in Broken Arrow, Oklahoma. Christopher suffered 21 stab wounds. The victims included his parents, David and April Bever, and two siblings, 12-year-old Daniel and 5-year-old Victoria. Two other siblings — a 13-year-old girl and a 2-year-old girl — survived; the 13-year-old was critically injured and later identified her brothers as the attackers after calling 911 to report an attack inside the house.

The assault was carried out by two older brothers, Robert and Michael Bever, who were 18 and 16 at the time. They fled the scene but were found in a nearby wooded area and taken into custody. Reports say the brothers had collected knives and other weapons and allegedly planned the attack as the opening of a wider campaign to gain notoriety.

Robert Bever pleaded guilty in 2016 to five counts of first-degree murder and one count of assault with intent to kill and was sentenced to life without parole. Michael Bever was tried as an adult and in 2018 was found guilty of the same charges and received five life sentences with the possibility of parole. Does anyone have memories of the Bever family or information that could shed more light on what led to this attack?
