GILBERT, AZ – Sources tell ABC15 that a prominent former neo-Nazi is among five people shot and killed Wednesday in a Gilbert neighborhood.

Police say the victims in the Wednesday shooting are two men, two women, and a young girl between 1 and 2 years old.

Sources say J.T. Ready, who was running for Pinal County Sheriff,   was involved in the shooting, however it is not clear if he was the gunman or a victim.

Ready was known to be a member of the National Socialist Movement who advocated using violence to stop people from crossing the border. In a 2010 interview with ABC15 he discussed his beliefs and showed off his cache of high-powered weapons.

Gilbert police said they will not confirm that Ready was one of the people killed and that they did have a witness they were talking to.

Police are still investigating the shooting, but a post on Ready’s Facebook page claimed the shooting was a hit carried out by a Mexican drug cartel.

Reports are unconfirmed that a cartel assassination squad murdered JT Ready and several of his friends and family this afternoon in Gilbert Arizona. This page’s admin will keep you updated of the situation as soon as possible.

Ready, a former Marine, was known for his work with the Minutemen, a border militia group that was armed and dressed in camouflage.

The Anti-Defamation League had identified Ready as a neo- Nazi, anti-immigration extremist and white supremacist, according to the organization’s website.

Gilbert Police confirmed Wednesday that five people, including Ready, were dead after a shooting near Warner & Cooper Roads.

Of the five people, two were adult males, two were adult females and a 2-year-old girl was transported to a local hospital where she was pronounced dead.

The gunman is reportedly among the dead, in what could be a murder-suicide.source

I know when I first heard about it on the radio and looked it up after I heard. I don’t buy for a second he was the gunman either. I mean why would he do that when he is running for Sheriff for one thing, also I’ve read where he got alleged threats from a Mexican Drug Cartel, The ADL was mentioned in what I read. I think him and the others that where killed it had something to do with Jews all over, possibly a drug thing, or an angry Sheriff that he was running against?


Just had a dumb ask thought not to make light of the situation I’m surprised they aren’t saying who ever did it did it for ‘Travon’…..grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr but I don’t buy he just shot a killed 4 others then himself, he was doing to good and had opened a lot of peoples eyes or are just plain ole sick and tired of all the BS
