A nearly two-decade-old murder case has seen a break, with the arrest of a Southern California man for the deaths of two brothers in Moreno Valley.
According to KTLA, Richard Ferris, 50, was apprehended by Riverside County sheriff's deputies on August 1st. The arrest was made in connection with the 2006 shooting of Louie Granado, 24, and Glenn Granado, 34.
Initial reports of the shooting, which occurred on January 29, 2006, drew deputies to the intersection of Pepper Court and John F. Kennedy Drive. The Granado brothers were found fatally shot inside their vehicle and despite an exhaustive investigation, the case eventually went cold due to a lack of sufficient evidence against the earlier identified suspect, Ferris.
Recent developments arose in April 2025, when the case was reopened after new information surfaced, as outlined in a press release retrieved from the Riverside County Sheriff's Department. Several months of meticulous work by homicide investigators culminated in enough evidence to charge Ferris, leading to his eventual arrest in Boyle Heights.
Ferris is currently held at the Robert Presley Detention Center, with charges of murder lodged against him. Details regarding the motive, as well as the nature of the relationship between Ferris and the victims, remain unreleased. Officials encourage anyone with knowledge about the case to reach out to Investigator Dan Brown or Investigator Dario Hernandez of the Central Homicide Unit at 951-955-2777.
