Edwards had committed a triple murder on Friday, Nov. 25, 2022 when he killed three members of the Winek family in Riverside County and set fire to their home to cover it up, after catfishing an online relationship with a 15-year-old girl in the family. San Bernardino deputies observed a red Kia Soul driving on Highway 247 during a manhunt for him. Sheriff’s Aviation and California Highway Patrol’s Aviation followed the Kia Soul from a distance until SWAT could catch up.
SWAT intercepted Edwards’ car, he fled and led deputies on a chase, during which time he shot at and struck a SWAT vehicle multiple times. Edwards reportedly lost control of his car and the chase ended when he drove off the road.
the 15-year-old girl whom he had “catfished” was in the car with him, but was able to exit at that point and be rescued by sheriff’s deputies.
As Edwards exited the vehicle, authorities said he pointed a gun at the sheriff’s helicopter, and deputies fired back at him. He was shot and killed. The girl survived.

City : Miami
County : Miami-Dade
State : Florida
Agency : U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP)
Cause of Death : Gunshot
Event : Killed by fellow officer during training exercise
OPEN RECORDS SUMMARY :
On October 19, 2022, Jorge Arias, a 40-year-old U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officer and firearms instructor, was fatally shot during a training exercise at the Trail Glades Range in Miami, Florida. The incident occurred around 10:30 a.m. during a role-playing scenario designed to simulate real-life situations. During the exercise, a fellow officer inadvertently discharged a live round, striking Officer Arias in the chest. He was airlifted to Jackson Memorial Hospital's Ryder Trauma Center, where he died from his injuries.Preliminary investigations suggest that the shooting resulted from a mix-up between training weapons and live firearms. Sources indicate that during the exercise, participants were supposed to use training guns. However, one officer mistakenly used a real firearm, leading to the accidental discharge. This raises critical concerns about the protocols in place to ensure the clear distinction between training equipment and live weapons.
.
The Miami-Dade Police Department's Homicide Bureau is leading the investigation, treating the incident as an accident. The focus is on understanding how the mix-up occurred and implementing measures to prevent such tragedies in the future.
