Long Beach PD: 2 Teens arrested in murder of Long Beach Wilson HS student Melody Ross

Breaking News in the Melody Ross Murder Case!

(Long Beach) - Long Beach Police Department Detectives have arrested the suspects believed to be responsible for the senseless murder of Melody Ross and the attempted murder of the 18-year-old and 20-year-old male victims.

The murder of Ross has been local and national headlines here in our community for the past week.

The suspects responsible for this murder are a 16-year-old male resident of Long Beach and a 16-year-old male resident of Bellflower.

Since both suspects are juveniles their identity cannot be released. Detectives from the Homicide Detail will present the case to the Los Angeles County District Attorney's office tomorrow to file charges.

Homicide Detectives are seeking more outstanding suspects and are asking for any additional witnesses to come forward. If you can help us with this case, please contact Detectives Scott Lasch and Malcolm Evans at (562) 570-7244.

Again, my heart goes out to the many friends and family of Melody Ross.

Great job Long Beach Police Department for finding these two suspects. I hope justice is served here.

Meet Randy Economy

You may know me from my role as the Senior Advisor and Official Media Spokesman for the Recall Gavin Newsom campaign that established a worldwide blitz of interviews. I conducted more than 2,200 media interviews on behalf of “The People’s Recall” during a 10-month period from November 2020 to September 2021. The iconic magazine Mother Jones in a dramatic feature article called me “A ‘Superhero Pirate’ Radio Host, (and) Gavin Newsom’s Strangest—and Most Dangerous—Threat. Meet Randy Economy, the man behind the effort to recall California’s governor.” I appeared on more than 330 media outlets around the world in my capacity with RecallGavin2020. Fox News, CNN, MSNBC, Newsmax, NBC Nightly News, ABC News, as well as the Wall Street Journal, Washington Post, Politico, and dozens of other media outlets aired featured reports on my work on behalf of “The People’s Recall.” I am and will always consider myself to be a journalist. Sometimes I think I bleed ink. My talents as an Investigative Journalists in California earned me FIVE top awards from the prestigious Los Angeles Press Club in 2013, 2014, and 2016. I am tenacious. My reporting over the years has led to the prosecution of several elected officials in California. While working for a tiny community newspaper in Southeast Los Angeles County, I worked doggedly to expose the biggest public corruption case in Los Angeles County history when I unearthed a massive pay to play scheme inside the Assessor’s Office that led to the arrest of then Assessor John R. Noguez and four others. However, politics has been in my DNA since I was a child. I have worked on more than 300 political campaigns as a consultant and advisor since 1982 for candidates from all sides of the political spectrum including Democrats and Republicans, and even Libertarians. I am also a small business owner, serving as the President and CEO of Hot Water Studio & Production, LLC. My company works with media outlets across the state, nation, and world exposing public corruption via several new media platforms. I have also overcome personal challenges. I am legally blind with zero vision in my right eye and only 40 percent vision remaining in my left eye. I sometimes wear an eyepatch due to my failed vision. (Hence the nickname of “America’s Political Pirate.”
