The Bellevue murders, also known as the Bellevue massacre, occurred on the night of January 3, and the early morning of January 4, 1997. Alex Kevin Baranyi and David Carpenter Anderson, both 17 years old, lured Kimberly Ann Wilson, 20, to a park in Bellevue, Washington, United States, and murdered her. Afterwards, they entered her family home and murdered her father Bill Wilson, his wife, Rose Wilson, and their other daughter, Julia Wilson. Both Baranyi and Anderson were convicted and sentenced to serve four consecutive life sentences without the possibility of parole, which have both since been reduced since they were under 18 at the time. The motives behind the murders remain unclear, but both perpetrators exhibited signs of psychological disturbance during questioning. When Baranyi was asked about his motives, he calmly replied that he wanted to kill someone because he was "in a rut." Testimonies from Baranyi and Anderson led investigators to suggest that they killed the Wilson family for the experience of killing.
