On March 1, 2023, four people were killed in a home on Alan Shepard Avenue in Canaveral Groves: 15-year-old Kiarra Terwilliger, her mother Constance Terwilliger, 35, her grandmother Glenda Terwilliger, 63, and Michael Watson, 36. Investigators say the suspect, 36-year-old Domenico Gigante, who had been Kiarra’s father and had a previous relationship with Constance, drove from his Rockledge home after midnight, broke into the residence and shot the victims. Surveillance video captured his Dodge pickup at the scene and audio picked up gunfire and a woman screaming; he left at 1:23 a.m. and returned to Rockledge. A 9-year-old who survived the attack contacted a family friend by video call and that friend found the scene and called 911. Two children, ages 6 and 9, were uninjured and later reunited with family.

Gigante was arrested the same day and charged with four counts of premeditated murder and one count of armed burglary while inflicting great bodily harm or death. He was being held at the Brevard County Jail without bond as prosecutors considered seeking the death penalty; his criminal history noted prior convictions for animal cruelty and aggravated assault. A roommate had warned authorities that Gigante had expressed intent the day before, and when told of his daughter’s death he admitted shooting Kiarra three times. Does anyone have information about the victims or the night of March 1 that could help clarify what happened?
