Stephen Marlow spoke out after allegedly killing Clyde Knox, 82, Knox’s wife Eva, 78, Sarah Anderson, 41, and Anderson’s daughter Kayla, 15, in Butler Township, Ohio on Friday. He said: “I will launch the first counterattack against mind control in human history. “I want to be very clear, this will not be an active shooter event. I will run some of the ones responsible for activating active shooters. “If I happen to survive, visit me in prison, just to see the same man you almost knew. I will gladly die to reveal this. “If I can help another targeted person fight back against telepathy, then the sacrifice will be worth it.” Marlowe lived near his victims, although it is unclear whether he knew them personally. It is also unclear whether the two families killed knew each other. The burglar, who completed probation earlier this year, was arrested by local police in Kansas on Saturday after the FBI launched a manhunt to find him. He also claimed during his rant that his alleged mind controllers used his “ventriloquy” to “move thoughts and mouths” and that he had been persecuted more than any other person in human history.
Stephen Marlow is pictured during a Facebook rant said to have been recorded after four people were killed in his hometown in Ohio on Friday. Eva Knox, 78, and Clyde Knox, 82, were among the victims shot on Friday. They had shared 60 years of marriage Kayla Anderson, 15, and her mother Sarah Anderson, 41, were the other two shooting victims. Officers were called to an Ohio neighborhood just before noon Friday on a report of shots fired and found four victims with gunshot wounds at multiple crime scenes, police said. The Dayton Daily News reported that the victims were found in two separate homes where they lived near the home owned by Marlowe’s parents. All four victims were pronounced dead at the scene.
The Knoxes had shared 60 years of marriage at the time of their deaths, according to an obituary, while a Go Fund Me page raised nearly $34,000 for the Andersons’ funeral expenses. Police had warned anyone who saw Marlowe, who had fled, “not to approach him as he is still likely to be armed and dangerous”. Porter called the shooting “the first violent crime in this neighborhood in recent memory” and said investigators were trying to determine a motive and whether “mental illness played a role.” He expressed gratitude to residents for their support and advice and also thanked the other law enforcement agencies involved in the case.

Vandalia closed several common areas Saturday as a precaution. Court documents do not list an attorney representing Marlow. A pretrial court date has not been released. Meanwhile, Vandalia School Principal Robert O’Leary said the district has provided counselors and therapists for students and their families since Anderson’s death and will continue to do so until next week. He called her a “ray of light” who was “as beautiful on the inside as she was on the outside.” An investigation related to the killings is still ongoing, which the FBI’s Cincinnati field office said it was part of.
