Column: No, there wasn't a homicide in Indian Hills this week, but it's understandable to still be concerned

Community members of Douglas County and Carson City, and even our neighbors in Washoe County, took to social media Monday discussing whether or not there was another homicide in Indian Hills, which, according to Carson City Sheriff Ken Furlong, did not occur. While there was a death that occurred inside one of the residences, there was no suspicion of foul play.

In the aftermath of the tragic four killings in our neighborhoods, it’s understandable to still be on high alert. A 19-year-old man residing in Carson City by the name of Wilbur Ernesto Martinez-Guzman was arrested in connection with the four crimes on Saturday.

However, conspiracy theories have begun to run rampant on social media that either it wasn’t Guzman, or that he didn’t act alone.
