A 32-year-old Wisconsin man is behind bars after he allegedly murdered his 22-year-old sister and shot his parents after years of alleged bullying because he was unemployed and broke.

Gerardo Jimenez-Rico has been charged with first degree intentional homicide in the death of 22-year-old Jocelyn Jimenez and attempted homicide in the shootings of his mother and father, WISN reported.

Milwaukee Police said they found the mother on top of her daughter in “a protective manner,” but Jimenez was pronounced dead at the scene.

Police said a 3-year-old child and a cognitively delayed adult were also inside the home but were not physically harmed.

Jimenez-Rico showed up at the District 1 police station on the night of January 22 and told police he had “shot someone.” He said that family had just returned from a month-long trip to Mexico that he did not attend because he had no money.

He told police that his family “gangs up on him because he is unemployed and he feels they bully him,” police wrote in a report. In fact, he said, his father complained to him the day of the shooting about dirty dishes left in the sink. His sister also complained about the dishes, he said.

Jimenez-Rico said he pulled his handgun out of his waistband and shot his father because “he was just fed up with putting up with the bully.” When his sister grabbed a knife, he shot her next.

He said “he did not intent to shoot his mother and he could could not explain why he did.”

The killer is being held on a $1 million bond. A preliminary hearing is set for February 6, WITI said.
