On the night of June 4, 2020, a mass shooting and house fire on Talucah Road in Valhermoso Springs, Alabama, resulted in seven deaths, including 22-year-old James Wayne Benford. Deputies found multiple victims at the scene and a portion of the residence burning. The other victims were Tammy England Muzzey, 45; Emily Brooke Payne, 21; Roger Lee Jones Jr., 19; Jeramy Wade Roberts, 31; William Zane Hodgin, 18; and a 17-year-old female.

Investigators treated the case as a multi-state effort. Within weeks two suspects, John Michael Legg, then 20, and Frederic Ric Allen Rogers, 23, were arrested in Oregon during a traffic stop and returned to Alabama to face capital murder charges. Authorities said the suspects and at least three of the victims were affiliated with a club called Seven Deadly Sins. The motive had not been publicly established at the time.

Does anyone have information about James Benford, his activities in Morgan County, or connections to the Seven Deadly Sins club that could help fill in what led to that night?
