Stephen Marshall (murderer)

Stephen Marshall (murderer)

Stephen Marshall (9 August 198516 April 2006) was a 20-year old man who made headlines after searching federal Sex Offender registries for the names and addresses of convicted sex offenders, then traveling to Maine and killing two.

Born in Fort Worth, Texas, Marshall and his family moved to Cape Breton, Nova Scotia when he was a child. His parents divorced in 1996. In 1999, Marshall moved in with his father in Culdesac, Idaho, where his father Ralph served three years as mayor. Marshall was charged with aggravated assault when he was 15, in April 2001, after he brought an AR-15 rifle onto his lawn, where two youths were fighting.

While his father moved to Arizona, and later Maine, Marshall moved back to his mothers in Cape Breton during the summer of 2003.

Out of 34 sex offenders listed on the Maine registry, Marshall took down the information on 29 of them. He began his Maine trip with a visit to his father, now living in Houlton, Maine.

Because his car had broken down during the drive, he borrowed his father’s truck, and took an .45 handgun from him. That night he shot and killed John Grey in Milo, and William Elliott in Corinth.

When police stopped the bus he was aboard that evening, he shot himself in the head.

Later investigation of the laptop he had brought with him, indicated that he had gone to the residences of four other sex offenders. Reporters also turned up his website, hosted at http://www.angelfire.com/ego/marshall/
