A 911 call and body-worn camera footage has been released, revealing the April 2025 murder of Reno Caddo, who was stabbed 21 times at a Goodyear home that housed people battling addictions.
Initially, Peaches had claimed it was self-defense. On Monday, he pleaded guilty to second-degree murder.
Dig deeper:
The police report revealed that residents in the home went to a Phoenix behavioral health clinic for treatment paid for by the AHCCCS, the state’s Medicaid agency. State health records show the home was not licensed.
Police say Peaches and Caddo had been drinking alcohol before the deadly stabbing. Peaches did serve 20 years in prison for manslaughter and was released in 2023.
