Raymond Calderon had his grandmother and sons captive when he fatally shot his friend, then drove to the Central Valley and shot his child’s mother before confronting police in a home standof…
SAN JOSE — Prosecutors have cleared two San Jose police officers who shot and killed a man in June after hein which he killed his friend in San Jose then killed his ex-girlfriend in Modesto.
Calderon was wanted after he forced his grandmother and two young sons to ride with him as he drove her pickup truck to an East San Jose home. There, he shot his friend, 36-year-old Freddy Herrera, before driving to Modesto and fatally shooting 29-year-old Michelle Rose Gonzales, the mother of Calderon’s third son, a 6-month-old.
Baker’s report reveals previously undisclosed details about Calderon’s state of mind at the time. According to witness statements, Calderon was with his grandmother and two of his sons at a South San Jose community swimming pool on June 21 when the grandmother got a call from the boys’ mother asking for them to come home. That apparently agitated Calderon, who accused his grandmother of “setting him up,” and he voiced his belief that a man in a pool office was an undercover police officer.
The mother later told investigators of his response: “I knew you called the police … you aren’t getting your kids back, I’m going to kill everybody … You up, so now the kids are going to see some .” When they got to Gonzales’ home, the report states, she came out and walked up to the truck’s driver door and greeted Calderon, asking him, “What’s the matter?” Calderon abruptly shot Gonzales three times at close range, killing her.
