1. The Crime:
Location: A home on Ferrell Way in Elk Grove.
Victim: An 11-year-old boy was found fatally stabbed.
Other Child: A 6-year-old child was present in the home but was found physically unharmed.
Suspect: The boy's father, 40-year-old Marvin Morales.
2. The Suspect's Background:
Marvin Morales was a former Sacramento County sheriff's deputy.
He was fired in February 2024 after an internal investigation confirmed he used illicit drugs.
3. Timeline of Events:
The boy's mother called authorities, expressing fear for her children's safety.
Upon arrival, police discovered the 11-year-old's body and learned Morales had fled.
Officers located Morales' vehicle and initiated a pursuit along Interstate 5.
The chase ended near Highway 12, west of Lodi.
There, a confrontation occurred involving officers from the Elk Grove Police Department and the Sacramento County Sheriff's Office. Morales was shot and killed by law enforcement.
4. Ongoing Investigations:
Multiple Agencies: The incident involves several investigations, including the homicide of the child, the officer-involved shooting, and the vehicle pursuit.
Standard Protocol: Officer-involved shootings typically trigger investigations by the involved departments' internal affairs units and often an independent review by the county's District Attorney's Office and/or the California Department of Justice.
Officer Status: No law enforcement officers were injured during the incident.
Important Context and Notes:
The case is particularly notable due to the suspect's former role as a law enforcement officer.
The motive for the attack is not detailed in the provided information and would be a key part of the investigation.
The involvement of both the Elk Grove PD (the originating jurisdiction) and the Sacramento County Sheriff's Office (Morales' former employer) adds a layer of complexity to the investigation.
This remains an active and developing case as authorities work to piece together the full sequence of events and circumstances leading to the tragedy.
