A multijurisdictional grand jury meeting in Richmond indicted Ricky Javon Gray, 28, for the New Year's Day beating deaths of local musician Bryan Harvey, 49, his wife Kathryn, 39, and daughters Stella, 9, and Ruby, 4, at their home in Woodland Heights.
The panel also handed up capital murder indictments against Gray's nephew, Ray Joseph Dandridge, also 28, for the Jan. 6 suffocation killings of Percyell Tucker, 57, his wife, Mary Baskerville-Tucker, 47, and her daughter, Ashley Baskerville, 21, in the Tucker home on East Broad Rock Road.
The indictments -- the product of weeks of intensive investigation by the Richmond Police Department and other law enforcement agencies -- came with both a profound sense of relief and sadness, said Richmond Commonwealth's Attorney Michael N. Herring.
He called the killings of the two families one of the city's greatest tragedies in recent memory.
