EIderIy man dies after another man, who cIaims he deserved to die and had wanted to kiII one for years because they hurt chiIdren, entered his home and assauIted him with a bIade, kiIIing him: police

California – A California man was taken into custody for the fataI stabbing of an elderly man, 71-year-old D. Brimer. The defendant, later identified as 29-year-old V. Surresh, allegedly targeted the victim after identifying him through California’s se* offender registry. According to court documents, the defendant admitted to investigators that he specifically sought out se* offenders as potential victims. He stated that he believed such individuals deserve to die and described the act of killing the victim as honestly really fun

Upon arriving at the scene, California authorities reportedly found the elderly victim unresponsive on the ground with multiple stab wounds. Despite immediate medical attention, he was pronounced dead at the scene. The defendant was located nearby and was taken into custody without incident. A bIade was recovered from the scene, and  he was charged with murder, residential burglary, and causing great bodily injury.

Investigators learned that the defendant had no prior personal connection to the victim. Instead, he used the Me gan’s Law database to locate the victim’s profile, which included his name, photo, and address. The defendant reportedly took screenshots of the defendant’s profile and other se* offender listings before the attack. On the day of the incident, he reportedly posed as a certified public accountant, going door-to-door in the defendant’s neighborhood. Once he confirmed the victim’s identity, the defendant allegedly entered the victim’s home and assauIted him with a bIade. The victim attempted to escape, fleeing to a neighbor’s garage, but the defendant followed and continued the assault.

During his arrest, he reportedly told officers that he believed everyone hated pe-ophiIes and that his actions were justified. He expressed no remorse for the killing and stated that it was “really fun”. California authorities have indicated that the defendant will undergo a psychiatric evaluation to assess his mental state at the time of the crime.

The victim had a criminal history, having been convicted in 1995 for Iewd and Iascivious acts with a chiId. He served nine years in prison and was released in 2004. At the time of his death, he was listed as a registered se* offender in California.

The case has raised significant concerns about the use of public databases to target individuals for vigilante justice. While the Me gan’s Law registry is intended to inform the public about convicted se* offenders, experts caution against using it to justify acts of violence. California authorities emphasize the importance of relying on the legal system to address criminal behavior rather than taking matters into one’s own hands.

As the investigation continues, the defendant remains in custody facing multiple charges. The case highlights the complex issues surrounding public access to criminal records and the potential for misuse in the pursuit of personal justice.
