Medina-Kochis and Hanme K. Clark Arrest; Two Suspect Arrested and Charge For Killing Three In Custer

A criminal accusation has been brought against a second individual following the alleged deaths of three individuals that occurred on Monday evening in the northern part of Custer County.

Accusations of accessory to a crime have been brought against Nancy Rae Medina-Kochis. As of Wednesday night, Medina-Kochis and Hanme K. Clark, who is suspected of being involved in the shooting, were being held in New Mexico while they awaited extradition to Colorado, as stated by the Custer County Sheriff’s Office.

It has been reported by the Custer County Sheriff’s Office that Hanme Clark was taken into custody by the New Mexico State Police on Tuesday afternoon. Clark was being held at the time of his arrest, and Medina-Kochis was present.

An update on the arrest was made approximately twenty-four hours after the initial report of the shooting. Rob Geers, James Daulton, and Beth Wade Geers were identified as the individuals who sustained injuries. Patty Daulton was identified as the fourth victim who was sent to a hospital in Colorado Springs after being reported missing. It is believed by the investigators that Clark was the individual who shot all four victims.

The incident that led to the manhunt for Clark lasted for around twenty-four hours and took place at 173 Rocky Ridge Road, which is located in a remote region eight miles northeast of Westcliffe and close to the boundary between Fremont County and Westcliffe.

An affidavit contains information that suggests the shooting was motivated by a disagreement over land and property lines. This is the conclusion that can be drawn from the material.
