BRAINTREE, MA - A suspect has been taken into custody for allegedly stabbing multiple teenage girls at a movie theater on Saturday, May 25th, and according to authorities, the suspect was also allegedly involved in a similar violent attack in Plymouth, Massachusetts earlier in the day and may be connected to an active murder investigation in Deep River, Connecticut.
According to the NBC Connecticut, state police are investigating a death in Deep River that is believed to be connected to the stabbings in Massachusetts. Connecticut state troopers responded to a location in Deep River on Saturday, May 25th around 3:30 p.m. for a report of a disturbance. Upon arriving on scene, troopers found a body; that person's identity has yet to be released.
Multiple law enforcement sources are now connecting that case with the stabbing in Plymouth and in Braintree. NBC Boston reported that the suspect, identified by one law enforcement source as Jared Christian Ravizza, also known as Jared Christian Ravizza Jones, also known as Jared Love Jones, has been accused of stabbing multiple girls ages nine to 17 in a AMC movie theater in Braintree before leading police on a vehicle pursuit that ended in Cape Cod.
Users on X, formerly Twitter, have also posted that the photos shared by law enforcement match an Instagram account that shows Jared prefers "she" pronouns.
According to the Braintree Police Department (BPD), Ravizza entered AMC Braintree 10 around 6:00 p.m., walked right past the ticket counter and entered one of the theaters without paying. Police said that he then stabbed four young girls in an unprovoked attack, ran out of the movie theater, and drove away in an SUV.
Authorities were able to track down Ravizza through video footage that captured his license plate number and put out a call to other local law enforcement agencies to be on the lookout for the suspect's vehicle. Ravizza, according to police, was involved in another stabbing at a McDonald's inside the Route 3 Park and Ride in Plymouth a short time after.
In that violent, unprovoked attack, a 21-year-old woman and a 29-year-old man were both taken to a local hospital with non-life-threatening injuries. All four girls in the movie theater attack where also taken to the hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.
A description of the suspect's vehicle along with the video footage helped Massachusetts State Police troopers locate the SUV in Sandwich. Troopers attempted to pull the vehicle over, but Ravizza failed to stop and led the police on a vehicle pursuit that ended in a fiery crash. He was taken to a nearby hospital for treatment to sustained injuries.
According to WCVB, the Plymouth County District Attorney's Office said that the suspect is being treated at South Shore Hospital in Weymouth and that he will likely be arraigned on Tuesday, May 28th, in Plymouth District Court.

Looks like TRANS aliens are NOT VERY STABLE ... more and more deaths over their inability to accept their bodies... SICK.

It's good to see the writer of the article did not conform with the crazy and referred to the suspect as he, him, his.

There is NO SUCH THING as transgender. It's simply men who actively like wearing women's clothes, make-up, act swishy, demand to be called some female first name, address themselves with female pronouns and adjectives, all to get admitted to female restrooms, female locker rooms, and female sports teams where they will excel because of their real gender's skills and strengths. They're perverted cross dressers and female impersonators with perverted fetishes. There is no such thing as transgender. Period.

We cannot allow men to mock women with their versions of what women are and how we behave, especially for the excuse of harming others, as though they should be more protected or equal than any other American. I am sick of the permissiveness associated with mentally/emotionally imbalanced people who think they are better than everyone else when, in fact, they are ill.

Glad they caught it. Wonder what possible reason it can give to stabbing girls. Other than just attention that is.
