Mike and Tina Careccia are found dead, buried in back yard, Jose Valenzuela is charged with first degree murder

According to a news release from the Pinal County Sheriff's Office, 44-year-old Michael Careccia and his 42-year-old wife, Tina Careccia, left their home in Maricopa around 5 a.m. for work, but they never made it. Police received the 911 call at 7:16 p.m. that evening, from Michael's 17-year-old son. KOLD YouTube

Update: We have gotten to a point in the investigation where we are confident that foul play is involved in their disappearance. Our priority is to locate this missing couple, yet we have evidence that suggests foul play. This is not just a search, but it is also criminal investigation into the couple's disappearance. PCSO

I spent four days on the search and live less than one mile from the couple's home. The PCSO doesn't seem to like talking about missing persons. Over the past two years, multiple persons have come up missing. One was supposedly found hung and another is still outstanding. The status on the others are unknown. Keep in mind, these are just the people that are missed and are reported missing. For all practical purposes, western Pinal County could be considered a "body dump corridor." Do some research, for yourself. More

Sheriff Paul Babeu: Update on the missing persons case of Mike and Tina Careccia

July 1, 2015. 3:55 pm: "PCSO detectives are on scene at a residence in the 50,000 block of West Papago, in Maricopa, conducting a search warrant related to the missing persons case of Mike and Tina Careccia. Due to the nature of the investigation and the critical juncture we find ourselves at, we are not able to share more details at time. We will brief the media on developments in the case as soon as we are able to." 

July 2, 2015. 2:30 am: “Our search of the property on West Papago Road has led to the recovery of two bodies, a man and women that we believe to be Mike and Tina Careccia. As well, we have one male suspected in custody who lives at the property being searched. Family members of the Careccia's have just been notified of the recovery and arrest. Our investigators and staff continue to carefully gather evidence that we believe will prove critical to our investigation and result in a stronger criminal case.”

July 2, 2015, 12:00 pm: During Pinal County Sheriff Paul Babeu's press conference in Florence, it was indicated that Jose Valenzuela was in possession of a .22 cal revolver, at the time of his arrest. This weapon is alleged to be the murder weapon. Meanwhile, Jose Valenzuela is being held in the Pinal County jail on two counts of first degree murder. His bond has been set at $2 million, cash.

Sheriff Babeu also indicated that the suspect and the victims were engaged in recreational drug use and that an argument allegedly ensued. Their drug of choice was said to be methamphetamine. Of course, toxicology results are pending. It was also reported that Valenzuela was at the Careccia home on Father's Day. "He had said that he had a two year friendship, a relationship, with Mike and Tina,"said Babeu. "He had said they had been involved in drug use with each other. And that drug was methamphetamine." Both victims are in the hands of the medical examiner, pending full autopsies. 

Paul Babeu said the PCSO had focused their investigation on Jose Valenzuela, within 24 hours of the reported disappearance, but that he played a “cat-and-mouse game,” with detectives, looking to talk to him. Then, he refused to come in. Once he “confessed,” it set in motion the search warrant at the residence at 50665 W. Papago Road. 

Mike and Tina Careccia update: Bodies of man, woman found at Maricopa home; man arrested, says PCSO

Pinal County Sheriff Paul Babeu said in a statement early Thursday that the bodies of a man and a woman recovered at a property on West Papago Road are believed to be Mike and Tina Careccia. Babeu says a man who lives at the property is in custody. Spokesman Mark Clark identified him as Jose Valenzuela. ABC15 

Valenzuela is well known to the court system in Pinal County and across the state. In 2008, he was charged with assault and disorderly conduct, pleading guilty to the lesser of those two charges. He was charged again with assault and disorderly conduct in 2009 and found guilty on both those counts. He also had charges of threatening and intimidation along with an aggravated DUI from 2010. Copa

Officials said Jose Valenzuela "essentially confessed" to killing the couple. According to Babeu, the victims were shot with a .22-caliber revolver and were buried with a backhoe that Valenzuela reportedly borrowed. "What he built was not a makeshift grave, but an actual six-foot grave," said Babeu. "He put these victims in that grave and buried them." ABC15 

Valenzuela said he gave the couple meth on Father's Day and later that night, the Carrecias went to Valenzuela's house where "something happened, a fight ensued" and Valenzuela produced a gun. Babeu said that investigators believe the couple was killed inside the home and later buried next to the residence. KPNX-12

“A leopard doesn't change his spots just because you bring him in from the jungle and try to housebreak him and turn him into a pet. He may learn to sheathe his claws in order to beg a few scraps off the dinner table, and you may teach him to be a beast of burden, but it doesn't pay to forget that he'll always be what he was born: a wild animal.” -George Lincoln Rockwell, Interview with Alex Haley, published in Playboy (April 1966)

National Socialist Movement: Literature and PR in the east, while NSM AZ searches for missing persons in southern Arizona

It's bee a busy week for the men and women of the National Socialist Movement. Members, across the country, have engaged in a variety of political and community involvement activities. We have lots more going on, behind the scenes, too.

NSM border operations volunteered some time to help look for missing persons. During the search, canine Bailey did a great job, despite the extreme heat. In the past, Bailey has helped find distressed illegal aliens, drug smugglers and human remains. She liked cooling off on the Raceway Bar & Grill's cool cement floor. She even got ice in her Coors bucket. I strongly suspect that missing couple's not in the area and some “shenanigans” have taken place. 

Phoenix radio station, KTAR actually referred to me as a "volunteer searcher" and not a "Nazi." That doesn't happen very often. Meanwhile, the Phoenix New Times remains silent. Apparently, my brief interview was aired, during the morning drive time. Soon, I started receiving messages from friends and followers thanking me for helping out. Well, this is MY neighborhood.

Search intensifies for couple missing south of Phoenix

Tina and Michael Careccia left their home in Maricopa for work around 5 a.m. Monday and haven't been seen or heard from since, a Pinal County Sheriff's Office spokesman said. Volunteer searcher Harry Hughes has been among those combing a 100-square-mile area of open desert, farm fields and pecan orchards about 10 miles south of Maricopa. "What's strange is that you vanish about a mile from home. We're at two days now and it seems peculiar about what happened," Hughes said. KTAR

After Channel 12 interviewed me, regarding the Confederate flag (earlier in the week), canine Bailey and I ran into Channel 12, again. Dozens of people met at Raceway Bar and Grill by the couple's home to take off on their own search and rescue mission, including Micheal’s son Luke. Luke said the detectives noticed the car was caked with dirt when they arrived, leading them to believe the car was driven on dirt roads or through the desert. KPNX-12

This is not the first time people have mysteriously disappeared in the Thunderbird Farms area. Most turn up dead. This man is still missing: The wife of a Thunderbird Farms resident missing for five months has raised reward money for information that could lead to her husband’s whereabouts to $25,000. Thomas Smith, who goes by his middle name Keith, left his residence on the 11000 block of North Glyde Drive after having a verbal argument with his wife. More

I'm no "Magnum," but I suspected foul play, from day one. Meanwhile, the search has evolved into a media ratings driven sideshow. I have stepped away. The wholesome "Brady Bunch" facade is beginning to crumble. With wage garnishments and lots of people allegedly coming and going from the Careccia home, one doesn't have to be “Colombo” to figure it out. This is life in “Cartel Country.” Meanwhile, a “P.I.” is discovering the obvious. KPNX-12

Insight - White nationalists condemn church killings, identify with shooter

“I expect that you're going to see an uptick in those types of attacks,” said Brian Culpepper, a Tennessee chapter leader of the National Socialist Movement, the largest Neo-Nazi organization in the United States, referring to the shooting in Charleston. “Open borders is a huge problem,” he said in an interview, causing white people to be displaced by “Third Worlders,” and generating “resentment among the whites and among the nationalists."

My momma always used to say, "The National Socialist Movement was like a box of chocolates. You never know what you're gonna get, until you actually complete the membership application, attend the meetings and show up at the national rally."

Hate group circulars disguised as paper deliveries

The circulars were wrapped around old sections of the Savannah Morning News and other area publications and dropped at the end of driveways inside clear plastic bags. And the Savannah Morning News denies involvement. “The circular was not created, printed or distributed by the Savannah Morning News or any of its sister publications,” said Traynor. More

Meanwhile, NSM Commander, Jeff Schoep grabbed some airtime with Collin A. Bullock. Let me get this out of the way up front: Jeff Schoep does not care much for the the term "Nazi". He prefers "white civil rights activist". But he is a commander of the National Socialist Party, the same party as the Nazis. Jeff has a number of opinions that aren't terribly popular, at least, not among most people. Listen

During the interview, the issue of the spree shooting in Charleston was brought up. In this day and age, the controlled media and the leftist bend over backwards to attach “collective guilt” to an entire group of people, rather than assess blame to the actual criminal. “An individual must be responsible for his own actions.” People aren't blaming rap music for violence, are they?

A scathing statement released by Commander Jeff Schoep, head of the largest pro White Civil Rights organization in America, the National Socialist Movement blasted the Governor’s Decision as a “knee jerk reaction,” and “served only to further the current atmosphere of Racial divide in America.” Schoep also warns that such statements will serve only to escalate tensions in an already volatile atmosphere.
