The 2006 Richmond spree murders took place during a
seven-day period in January 2006 in and around Richmond, Virginia, United
States; seven people, including four members of the Harvey family and three
members of the Baskerville-Tucker family, were killed. The perpetrators were Ricky
Javon Gray (March 9, 1977 – January 18, 2017) and his nephew Ray Joseph
Dandridge (born January 24, 1977). Dandridge's girlfriend Ashley
Baskerville assisted the pair as an accomplice during their murder and robbery
spree until she became one of their victims. After Gray and Dandridge were
arrested, two prior murders, including that of Gray's wife, and a near-fatal
assault in late 2005 were linked to the men.
Dandridge pleaded guilty to murdering the three
Baskerville-Tucker victims in exchange for receiving a life
sentence without the possibility of parole.
Gray was charged with capital murder in connection with
the Harvey family killings, convicted, and sentenced to death for the murders
of Stella and Ruby Harvey, who were aged 9 and 4, respectively. Gray's
execution was carried out on Wednesday, January 18, 2017, at 9:42 PM by lethal
injection.
