A 27-year-old Iraq War veteran who suffered from post-traumatic stress disorder killed his 11-year-old sister, before fatally turning a gun on himself, according to Gilroy police, who also feared he may have also killed or seriously wounded their mother.
"It's horrible," said Gilroy police Sgt. Chad Gallacinao. "We have no idea where the mom is."
Gilroy police said they rushed to the Redwood Apartments complex on Kern Avenue on Wednesday night after a report that something there might be wrong. When officers arrived, they found the 11-year-old girl -- Lucero -- dead, with a bullet in her head. They also found the body of her older brother, Abel Gutierrez, who had served with the U.S. Army in Iraq. Police said he may have shot their mother, Martha Gutierrez, 52, before turning the gun on himself.
In the weeks leading up to the violence, neighbors and relatives at the complex reported that Abel Gutierrez was known there for his often troubling, frightening and aberrant behavior toward family and strangers. However, on an emergency call to the family residence Feb. 29, police determined the young military veteran did not seem dangerous.
On Thursday, in Gilroy, a police spokesman said, "There was forensic evidence at the scene to suggest that Martha Gutierrez is critically injured or deceased," as they continued searching for her late into the night. Police indicated that at least two firearms were used in the murder-suicide but would not
disclose whether Gutierrez left a note.
Details of Gutierrez's personal experiences in the Middle East were skimpy, but his post-war path indicated some potholes of emotional damage.
A Veterans Affairs spokeswoman in Palo Alto said Gutierrez received treatment for post-traumatic stress disorder in Puget Sound, Wash. PTSD is an extreme form of anxiety that often makes it difficult for soldiers who have experienced combat to resume normal lives. VA officials in Puget Sound could not be reached for comment.
Relatives and neighbors at the apartment complex described the former soldier as openly troubled. They said he often used profanity at people, threatened them and generally seemed on the edge of some kind of violent outburst.
Faustino Gutierrez, 46, Martha Gutierrez's brother, said the young veteran would sit on the sofa twirling a handgun and also brandished a rifle inside the family's apartment.
"He said he killed a lot of people in Iraq," said Faustino Gutierrez. "It was in his conscience, and he didn't want to live anymore."
He also said that the younger Gutierrez called him from Puget Sound and threatened to kill him.
Abel Gutierrez's niece, Kristell Gutierrez, said he would say he wanted to kill himself "all the time," and would ask family members if that would hurt them.
A neighbor living in an apartment below the family did not allow his daughter, a close friend of Lucero's, to visit the Gutierrez apartment.
"I told her it's better you no longer play inside there," he said. "Things would be quiet then he would cuss for no reason. ... He would pace back and forth in the parking lot ... with just this look on his face that he was lost."
If Iraqis were hoping that the withdrawal of U.S. forces last year would finally mean the end of war, al Qaeda and its Sunni militant allies are determined to prove otherwise.
Daily bombings and shootings remain an endemic feature of life. In the past three months, al Qaeda-linked fighters have been blamed for attacks that have killed at least 250 people.
In a particularly poignant reminder of militants' potency this week, gunmen in unauthorized uniforms of special commandos drove from checkpoint to checkpoint in the western town of Haditha before dawn, gunning down police. They killed 27 including two officers dragged from their homes and slain in the street.
A return to the all-out sectarian slaughter that killed tens of thousands of Iraqis in 2006-07 is unlikely. Nor are al Qaeda fighters threatening to again impose their rule over whole swathes of Iraq as they did in the early years after the U.S. invasion that toppled Saddam Hussein.
But unlike Shi'ite militia groups - which have largely declared they are ready to lay down arms now that U.S. troops have left - al Qaeda and other Sunni groups have shown no sign of giving up the fight. And Iraq's security forces show little sign of the wherewithal to vanquish them once and for all.
Al Qaeda will continue to be a menace until security forces have better intelligence, are more technologically sophisticated and can gain the public's trust in those pockets where the militants still have support.
In the absence of American troops to oppose, al Qaeda and its allies in Iraq have hewed to explicitly sectarian rhetoric, calling on all Sunnis to join them in battle against the Shi'ite-led government in Baghdad.
"Know that the coming stage is a stage of real confrontation and war against the despicable (Shi'ites), whether you like it or not," the al Qaeda-affiliated Sunni group Islamic State of Iraq said after claiming responsibility for attacks on Iraqi security forces that killed 60 people on February 23.
Ibrahim al-Shimari, spokesman for the Islamic Army, another militant group, said it would keep fighting as long as "the effects" of the former U.S. occupation still exist.
"We are continuing to defend the Iraqi people and this weapon is the guarantee of the security of the Iraqi people."
Iraqi authorities insist they have the situation under control. Deputy Interior Minister Adnan al-Asadi says attacks have fallen by more than 80 percent compared to past years, with the remaining violence a sign of terrorist groups trying to "prove they are still on the scene".
"After the tightening that happened against al Qaeda and other groups and the heavy blows they received, the detentions of many leaders and members that contributed to cells breaking up, ... sanctuaries and sources of finance are much more restricted," Asadi told Reuters. "That has led these groups to, from time to time, prepare an attack to signify their identity."
Iraq's branch of al Qaeda is only loosely linked to the wider organization founded by Osama bin-Laden, but shares its strong anti-Western ideology and its aim of restoring the strict Sunni Muslim caliphate that ruled the mediaeval Arab world.
In the early years after the fall of Saddam, al Qaeda fighters took control of cities and towns in Sunni-dominated western and central Iraq, resisting the U.S. presence and imposing a stark interpretation of Islamic law.
They also fought Shi'ites, who make up the majority in Iraq but are denounced by al Qaeda as apostates from true Islam.
Eventually al Qaeda's extreme violence and rigid rule alienated Sunni tribes, who teamed up with U.S. troops to drive them out, first from their stronghold in Anbar province and then from other areas. Since 2008 the fighters have no longer controlled significant territory.
Having fought to drive the militants out, Iraqi villages and towns are unlikely to welcome al Qaeda back, Asadi said.
"Al Qaeda will not return to take over any province, including Anbar, because the people of Anbar have tasted the bitterness of al Qaeda," Asadi said.
Trayvon Martin Case: Justice Department To Investigate Fatal Shooting Of Unarmed Florida Teen
By Trymaine Lee
The U.S. Department of Justice and the FBI have opened an investigation into the "facts and circumstances" surrounding the killing of Trayvon Martin, the unarmed teenager shot and killed last month by a neighborhood watch captain in an Orlando suburb.
The department will "conduct a thorough and independent review of all evidence and take appropriate action at the conclusion of the investigation," according to a statement late Monday.

Good morning, bloggers!!
TriSec, I fear that we will pay the price of the Iraq and Afghanistan conflicts for decades to come. There are so many soldiers who have come back home with post traumatic stress disorder and other problems. As for Iraq, I am not surprised that the violence continues.
In some news related to yesterday's blog, the U.S. Justice Department and the Federal Bureau of Investigation are opening an independent investigation of the shooting death of Trayvon Marin.

Not sure if you guys saw this yet.. Trayvon was on a call with a friend while he was being literally hunted down. Hopefully this will put any nonsense about Zimmerman's claims of self-defense.
By the way, I know we here aren't fans of capital punishment by any stretch, but damnit I feel Zimmerman deserves it.

TN bill mandates publication of abortion data
By Chas Sisk
Doctors who perform abortions in Tennessee could see their names listed online, and women who undergo the procedures could be unintentionally identified under a bill pending in the state legislature.
State lawmakers are debating a measure that would require the Department of Health to publish more details about abortions, bringing Tennessee into a roiling, state-by-state battle over how to regulate abortion procedures.
Supporters say the bill, scheduled to come up Wednesday in a state House committee, only requires state health officials to post information online that they already collect. But critics say the measure is intended to intimidate women and doctors involved in abortions, even in emergency situations.
“I think publicizing this information will do nothing but cause serious consequences,†said state Rep. Gary Odom, D-Nashville. “This is dangerous. This is a dangerous piece of legislation.â€

Throwdown: How The GOP Budget Will Overwhelm Politics In 2012
Brian Beutler March 20, 2012, 9:21 AM
On Tuesday afternoon, House Budget Committee Chairman Paul Ryan will unveil an updated version of the GOP’s vision for the country’s future, and the ideological battles that have defined the Obama era will resume with more vigor and more noise than at any time since the 2010 passage of President Obama’s health care law.
That’s not simply because this is an election year, though that’s a huge part of it. The GOP is being driven, for the moment, by a vocal and ideological faction that’s unwilling to retreat from the controversial tax and spending plan they endorsed last year. This year’s Republican budget is expected to include similar plans to roll back popular programs like Medicare and Medicaid, and comes as the Supreme Court is set to hear arguments about the constitutionality of “Obamacare.†Moreover, Republicans will renege on the deal they reached with Democrats during last summer’s debt limit fight, and propose to cut more deeply into other domestic programs that disproportionately benefit the poor.
Add in a contentious presidential election and you have a recipe for an unusually clear-eyed ideological debate over whether New Deal and Great Society-like federal programs are in the country’s best interest, or whether they were errors that ought to be unwound.
This will manifest in scores of smaller fights. But the three biggest of those will mark the coming year: the Republicans’ goal of phasing out traditional Medicare and replacing it with a subsidized private insurance system; their twin goal of repealing the health care law, which creates a similar subsidized private insurance system for uninsured adults; and the nearer-term question of how deeply to cut into other federal programs — and thus of whether there will be a government shutdown less than two months before the November election.
