White Cross murder case dropped

Posted on May 14, 2009 by Staff

Evidence presented Monday in Orange County District Court showed that brothers Steve and Ronnie Ramirez were acting in self-defense when they shot and killed Thaddeus Jerrod Harris in March.

As a result, a judge ruled that there was insufficient evidence to send the cases to the Superior Court. The Ramirez brothers had been charged with the murder of Harris after Orange County deputies found him dead from multiple gunshot wounds at the Ramirez home at 2120 Gemena Road, not far from American Stone Quarry.

According to District Attorney Jim Woodall, Harris entered the Ramirez home for a drug deal and fired a gun before he was shot.
