Man Beheads 5-Year-Old Sister
March 30, 2009
Oh man, this is so sad and very disturbing.
Kerby Revelus, 23, stabbed and killed his 17-year-old sister Samantha Revelus and then beheaded his 5-year-old sister, Bianca during her birthday party.
Officers who responded to the call broke down the door of the family home and shot and killed Kerby Revelus.
Police say his other sister, 9-year-old Sarafina was hospitalized on with defensive wounds to her hands and stab wounds in her abdomen and one of her legs.
Milton police Chief Richard G. Wells Jr. told the Star Tribune:
“In policing, we see the raw human emotion every day, but to think that a human being could afflict such an atrocious, violent act on his own family is unbelievable. When I walked up to the first officer (on the scene), I could see the whole story right in his face. This just told me that this was something very bad.”
Wells added:
“As the officer entered the door, (Revelus) decapitated (Bianca) in front of him. He actually walked into a killing field. He walked into such carnage, as far as the atrocity of it, I’ve never seen it.”
Wells said that within moments four officers were inside and two of them shot Revelus as he tried to get to Sarafina. Revelus fell, still clutching the knife.
No news on the motive, but reports indicate that Kerby was involved in an altercation with a neighbor on Friday evening and remained agitated throughout the weekend.
According to Wells, Revelus has recently served jail time on a gun charge, and police were called to the family’s house in 2004 after a domestic violence report that he had punched a woman living there.
