On February 9, 2024, 39-year-old Justin Reid was shot and killed inside his family apartment on Silver Sky Parkway in the Stead neighborhood of Reno, Nevada. Neighbors reported arguing followed by gunshots around 4 p.m., and police say officers found Justin in the garage with multiple gunshot wounds to his chest and back. His young son, reported as about four or five years old, was found dead on the living room couch with a gunshot wound to the head; the Medical Examiner later ruled Justin’s death was due to multiple gunshot wounds.

Police say the shooter was Justin’s 17-year-old daughter, Mashenka Ann Marie Reid, who called 911 and told dispatch she had shot her father and brother and couldn’t control the urge to kill. Court documents allege she planned the attack, retrieved her father’s Walther PPS handgun, used online instructions to learn to operate it, locked the family’s 2-year-old sister in a bedroom, and shot Justin as he returned home.

Mashenka was arrested at the scene and charged as an adult with two counts of open murder with a deadly weapon and one count of attempted murder with a deadly weapon; she pleaded not guilty and the case was pending in court as of February 2024. Does anyone have information about the family or what happened that afternoon?
