Jericho Wright
This happy face belongs to 26-year-old Jericho Wright, who worked as an independent contractor for a few newspapers in his area.
Ok, he was a paperboy.
Jericho Wright had an agreement with his ex-girlfriend where each of them would take custody of and care for their 3-year-old love child, Liadan Eva, for a week at a time, switching off every week.
On the week of the 24th of February, 2008, Jericho Wright had Liadan Eva, and at about 3 in the afternoon Jericho discovered that Liadan had gone and had an accident in her bed.
Most people with children know that accidents happen. Kids forget to go, they get distracted, they get tickled and lose control, and sometimes, they just can’t be bothered.
Potty-training happens, and when it does, it’s not a personal insult directed towards you, or something the child dreamed up to keep you from playing on your Xbox 360 for 20 minutes.
You have to wonder what Jericho Wright was thinking when he hurled his 3-year-old daughter into the shower, slamming her head against the side of it.
Did he want to watch television? Was Jericho Wright’s Sunday afternoon Gilligan’s Island marathon being interrupted?
Was he playing around on the Internet, perhaps reading People You’ll See In Hell?
What was Jericho Wright doing that was so important that warranted casually inflicting injuries on his daughter, including cuts to her lips and bruises over her body? Were those cuts and bruises inflicted with just one toss into a shower, or were they something that happened over a longer period of time?
Regardless of what Jericho Wright was doing that was so important, he got the toddler clean, at least.
And dead.
Jericho Wright told police that he didn’t see the need to call for any kind of medical attention when his bruised and bleeding daughter complained of being tired at about six in the evening. Instead, he put her to bed and checked her out when he got up at three in the morning to deliver his newspapers.
According to Jericho Wright, when he came back home for a bit at half past five in the morning, he went in again to check on his daughter and found her cold and stiff to the touch. Instead of calling anyone, or performing CPR, or praying to any one of many fine deities, Jericho went back out to finish his paper route and collect his thoughts, returning at nine that morning.
And he still didn’t call anyone.
No, upon returning to the residence where his dead daughter was, Jericho Wright didn’t pick up the phone – he picked up a bottle of wine and a bunch of aspirin, downed it all and woke up over eight hours later.
Then he called the cops.
I suppose with all the malice and wrath in the world that we’ve seen lately, we should be happy that Jericho Wright didn’t eat her.
Jericho has been charged with murder.
Update:
On the 5th of March, 2008, Jericho Wright pled not guilty to charges of murder and child endangerment.

He didn’t even have the guts to try and kill himself painfully. Aspirin and pills just don’t cut it.
I am all for letting these people weed themselves out, it keeps everyone else from having to even be in the same room with this kind of malignant skinbag.
This reminds me to give an extra hug to my almost 3 year old.
That poor baby girl. It makes me want to cry thinking about her just laying there dead all that time and nobody cared. He didn’t have the decency to call anybody to take care of her poor little body. Too bad he didn’t just shoot himself in the head and get it over with. He probably thought he would get some sympathy since he DID go and try to “kill” himself. puhleeeze. That bastard needs to fry. I wish it wasn’t considered cruel and unusual for it to take a looong time for these wastes of skin to die.
Hey, he should go to hell just because he soiled a good name. I love Jericho!
If you’re talking about the TV show, I love it too!!! :)
What a puke. I don’t need to read the story….Already read it on another page..but he is disgusting..
And….was it common practice that he just leave her ALONE in the wee hours of the morning to go do his ‘paper’ route?
Bring him to New York and let’s toss him off the Empire State Building! I’d really want to toss his ass from 102 onto the suicide fences on 86. If he rolls onto the deck he might live – for a while or if he rolls the other way down to 80, he’ll leave a nice stain on the building letting everone know that we are finally dealing justice to those who kill babies and toddlers!
Wow, Fred, I LOVE that idea!! We could record it and watch it over and over and over!! hahahhaha. And then show it to other would-be baby-killers!!!
Wheeeeeeee!
LOL!
NM, that would be Weeeeeehawwwwww down here where I comes from!!! hahahah.
I don’t understand all of these people with the same last names….It bugs me. It’s like it’s in their name DNA or some crazy shit. Like they have a reputation to stand up to.
Fred, I oppose your idea. A landmark as good as the Empire State building does not need to have this scum touching it.
Good reason to oppose my idea.
I got engaged on the south side of the deck on the 86th floor.
A stain on the Empire State Building would annouce that the Justice System no longer belongs to the criminals & their lawyers, but rather to the victims & those who care more about the victims than the criminal; that criminals will be punished rather than rehabbbed!
When are we going to start sterilizing these losers?
I agree with all of you. I live in the town where it happened, and I found out yesterday that I’m related to the scumbag, which just sickens me.
Why all the psycho-violent replies, are you better than the person you want to torture to death? Because it’s really not showing, folks.
The difference is that WE haven’t tortured anyone to death. We only think about it.
Of course we’re better. Meaghan is right. We don’t torture innocent people. We only want to torture the bad ones. Nothing wrong with that.
so i am supposed to feel bad because i want a dude that beat his own child to death to suffer? screw that, i hope the rats eat his eyes in prison, right before he is raped and killed
Would it make you feel better if we showed a little empathy for him? After all, maybe we could get him a private room, a feather bed, nice down comforter and pillow. Your right, and because he is so emotionally distraught we’ll even hook him up with Cable, internet, a car and a brand new X-Box.
Come to think of it we’ll just let him stay at your house. Would that work better for you Sean?
I for one would rather help this gentleman gain a stronger grasp of the value of human life. Say, Keith Jesperson style. I’ve got a chain if anyone out there has an 18-wheeler!! Then we’ll just need to find an interstate!!!!
Hell yeah we are better than him. He killed his own flesh and blood for messing her pants!!!
I read that and the rage that I felt is hard to explain. Jericho the little bitch shouldn’t even be living. Then you try to make these people feel bad. You suck
Sean,
It’s natural to want to hurt someone who does something violent to someone people identify with (in this case the victim), but you are correct that it makes people less than humane to act on these impulses. Mob justice is a figment from a time when the only justice available was from a mob. When used in a reasoned and social way it still has some uses, but when added to any physical and/or violent impulse it usually turns negative.
Wishing this person would receive more severe punishment can lead to something more positive. It can focus enough attention on the problem that maybe someone can figure out a way to direct a more lasting impediment for the underlying crime and thus prevent future criminals from killing their children so negligently.
I’d encourage you to let people have their anger and their outbursts. People who lose people have a lot of pain and anger to get out, and others may find valuable lessons taught in these parables that are more poignant with the commentary. Some people don’t have the moral compass to truly understand how abhorrent some of these people are. Perhaps with the weight of the commentary they can relate to how some people find these actions so abhorrent and fill that weakness and void.
If your intention is to completely short-circuit this anger, I think you miss the point of having such an open forum. Your words can admonish some, but adding insult opens the path to debate and argument, and it’s quite possible you can lose that argument and further entrench your opponents position.
I hope some really big fucker in prison picks him up and slams his head into a wall. At least 10 times.
I think everyone on this page needs to go to fuckn hell!! Yes it is a digusting act. But you do not know the man or the family. You do not know what happend all u know is what u see on tv and everyone nows that is never always try. I think everyone needs to mind there own fuckn buessness. If this was ur child would u want the world talking bout it. this site can go to hell!!!!!
Molly~ You can go to hell with him and on your way down there go ahead and lick my snatch bitch! If this was my child I would not call the police and kill the bastard myself. I don’t think I would serve much time for it. and BTW this IS our business! As long as I’m part of the human race when other people do such vile things, it becomes my business! Haven’t you ever heard of ‘judgement of your peers”? Come on..defend this fucking POS I’m ready to conteract you! Dumb Bitch!
apparently molly feels that there may be a good reason to beat your own child to death in the shower. ifthis were my child i would want the entire world to talk about it. i am assuming you are either not a parent, or just a sucky one
if you don’t want the world talking about you, then don’t murder your innocent 3 year old child, you filthy cow cunt bitch! i hope someone beats your stupid ass to death so you can go to hell with jericho.
wtf kind of animal did your mother raise that you would show such a high level of disrespect and contempt for a beautiful child by defending a pos killer?
Molly, learn to spell, and SHUT THE FUCK UP!!!
Dearest Molly,
You sound like a woman I would like to date. Could we get together? I would love to take a hot shower with you, bang your head against the wall a few times and fuck you in the ass with one of Jericho”s rolled up newspapers. Sound like fun bitch? Call me anytime.
Johnny Love
I see how my husband looks at my daughter everyday – with love and adornment. SHE is his HEART…. People that do these things to their own children have a super special spot in the pits of hell waiting just for them. How anyone could ever NOT want to send this bag of shit straight to hell???
im a memeber of leidans family, and immediate member. she was an angel, and while it isa bit upsetting to see the details posted everywhere, it is nice to see people feel hatred for this man as i do. our babygirl didnt deserve this, as no child should, and to leave her laying there, in pain, was she calling for us? i dont want to imagine what she went through. i hope hes murderd in jail
OMG parents are killing their children! What to do?
Well, here’s what we SHOULD do:
Let’s have some fun!
Let’s exchange some body parts. We will start with two POS that have something in common.
I’m thinking we should hack off Wright’s limbs and exchange them with Sofia Nino’s limbs.
Hey, you want Sofia to have a penis? No problem! A little surgery won’t hurt anyone especially if we do it with our very own die cast, high tension hacksaw!
It’s capable of cutting through metal pipes with ease.
You want Sofia to have hairy arms? NO problem! We’ll just saw off Wright’s arms at the scapula and fasten it to Sofia’s!
You want Jericho to be a short fat winch with saggy tits? NO PRO-BLEM! We’ll just saw of their heads and interchange them. It’s that easy with our trustworthy hacksaw! We will never bore because the possibilities of interchanging are endless!
Get your hacksaw today for a mere $32 from your local hardware store. Thirty-two dollars is a pittance to pay for the disposal of two dumb sacks of shits.
You know Turtle, I like that idea. But, why waste time. I’ve got a nice band saw, compound mitre style. Heck, we could even use the the plainer/jointer to help get that stomach flat. And if Sofia happens to be to tall, no problem. We’ll just lay her on the Radial Arm Saw. Heck, we could even use the Jointer put their legs together and make one of them 8 feet tall!!
Wow!! Who knew tools could be so socially useful!!!
i share your hopes for jericho’s immediate future in prison, hurt. and i’m more sorry for your loss than i can express here. you see, i have a 3 year old, and when i hear stories like this, i imagine what it would feel like if it was my kid, god forbid, i don’t even like thinking of it, but i’m sensitive and empathy is something i feel deeply. i HATE people who bring innocent children into harms way and i believe karma will be a bitch, in this lifetime and the next. jericho WILL get just what he deserves.
i love how people on these websites are quick to judge what the see in the news yet dont know the history of the person they only know the bad things said about them. i actually happen to know this person and the area he is from. did you know the town is a tiny little shitty town in merced county who doesnt even have a major fastfood chain in the town its that small? did the news or newspapers report that he was a veteran of the military? or that he was a damn good student and excelled on the wrestling team kept good grades? im sure the paper didnt talk about the good things he has done in his life before this tragic accident.
i worked for a company that tested the community for heart attack and stroke prevention good cause right? well why then did the newspaper and news decide to make a story about them not being licensed in california only to find out they looked under the wrong company licensing name. they printed all the bad stuff on the front and back page of the newspaper then had to write a retraction on page 4 in a small little box as if anyone read it. but the damage was done and the community came less and less.
i should also mention that while living in that same county i had a little sister who was autistic and she had a brain hemorrhage while taking a bath. yet the same investigators came and tried to charge my mother with murder. Lets just say charges got dropped and she got a formal apology. you have to understand the police agencies in this said area are lazy and if they can pin a murder charge on you they are going to because they dont want to do the investigation work to find out what truely happened.
so please before going and jumping to conclusions about someone you dont even know do some research first and find out more than what is printed or said in the media.
shut up you son of a bitch! do you even give a shit that an innocent 3 year old is dead and deserves justice?
Absolutely eternal. Go fuck yourself justin. Even if it was an accident when precious little Liadan Eva was killed, and that a huge fucking if, why did your buddy Jericho wait so goddamn long to get the poor baby medical attention? Aaah, you can take your sob story and your character references and jam them straight up your asshole, along with any other excuses you can come up with for that baby killing cocksucker. You can tell your buddy for me that he should pray to be convicted, and that he gets a long, long sentence, cuz if he gets off, I’m comin for him. When I’m done with him, he can try out some of your shiny new bullshit excuses on Liadan Eva in person, before they ship his evil ass straight to hell.
Okay Justin… Let’s look at this for a moment here… He’s innocent according to you and the cops are to lazy to actually look into the situation….
If that is true then please explain this:
1. Cuts to her lip. If Jerkyoff didn’t do this to her, then how did she get it?
2. Bruises on her body. Again, if the Paper Bitch didn’t do it, then how do she get them?
3. Why was she left alone while he delivered papers? Is it that difficult to put a sleeping 3 year old into a car seat at 3 am? I’ve done it with my girls when we were traveling, it’s amazing how fast they fall back asleep.
4. Why did he wait so long to get help if he found her dead at 5 am? Are the papers that important, that nothing, not even the death of his daughter, can interrupt them?
I’ll refrain from judgement until you choose to respond to this Justin, love to hear the answer.
did you know the town is a tiny little shitty town in merced county who doesnt even have a major fastfood chain in the town its that small?
Oh, well, that just changes everything. No wonder he killed his baby. He must have been dying of boredom, AND what loving, decent parent would want their child growing up in a town so small with no fast food? I mean, shit, she could have starved to death eventually. Are there any children in this small town, or is beating small children to death a mercy sport there? It all makes sense now. I’m sure glad I’m not unlucky enough to live there and to have squeezed little fast-food gobbling snot munchers out – I’m kind of partial to my kids, even when they were 3 years old and painting their walls in poo….my little poocausoes.
WOW. He was in the military. And he was a good student. And he can wrestle. ( GO WWE) The poor bastard cant buy any Burger King or KFC. And he lives in a shit hole that has an under funded/ understaffed police dept……Geez… i think i need a tissue…my eyes are welling up at the thaught of his shitty little existance. Poor, poor man.
So we should excuse him? Oh hell no. He killed his child. The sack of shit deserves everything he gets.
motherfucking cunt son of a bitch!!!!!
over a little accident? then left her there cold and alone. i’m so upset i can’t even think of anymore filthy words to scream! and for that alone he deserves hell!
You know i read these stories and it makes me SICK to my stomach that people come on here to defend these POS and try to make them sound like these great people but not once did his “friend” Juston mention anything about him being a “good father” nope jsut about this guys past accomplishments and thats not saying much he had every way, just like the rest of us, to get out of the shithole he lived in, move go somewhere else. Why defend the bastard he KILLED< MURDERED< HURT< ENDANGERED his own child and why?? WTF is happening in this world that these ignorant POS have to hurt innocent children they didnt ask to be here they are made by people that need to be sterilized.
This little 3 year old girl died in her bed all ALONE, after suffering multiple ( that would be more than one ) blunt force traumas to the head , shoulder and body, as well as cuts to her lip.
What kind of Ass Hat, Fuck Tart, leaves a bruised and bleeding child , home alone and goes to work??
Take off your rose colored glass’s Justin, Are you going to try and convince us the autopsy report was wrong next?
With a name like Jericho, his parents must have hated him. Looks like a rump ranger to me
Why do all of these parents hurt their babies because they haven’t potty trained them? I mean I with the next person about not wanting to change diapers but that is such a small price to pay for what you get back from your kids.
he deserves everything he gets
He neads to be showered with acid and bleach and beaten over days until he dies.
Scum of our planet. pffft.
Like you need to narrow thigs down a little. You see bleach is an acid. Yes it is very watered down. But non th lessit is an acid.
Simply saying he should be beaten over days is not enough informtion. Beaten where, with what and on what part(s) of his body.
Here is how I would party with the fellow:
Strip him with the ease of stripping a little baby. Using a razor make many small cuts all along his body. Not too deep but just enough to draw a little blood. Not to piss of the leftwing I would then clean his wounds with a bleach/ammonia combo. thatt’ll get rid of the dirt and other nasty little things that infect wounds.
Strap him to a very sturdy wooden chair. Taking roofing nails and a 3 lbs hammer I would then hammer a few nails in to his hands and knees. Just to make sure he is awake and can see what is coming his way.
Now like I have set up a decient play area for you. Please can you finish?
God damn Mulch, it’s really good to have you back again! Nobody can make’em hurt like you can brother.
Waterboarding? Please….
Funny thing is I have been waterboarded. No fun at all. Was part of some training I went through. After 30 seconds I was singing like a bird.
There was a block of instruction over 4 days complete with pictures and movies on torture. Lets just say many of us puked many times those days. Most of the footage came from the USSR, Afganistan, Iraq and Iran. You know those countries that the shithead of a president is sucking up to? Yah those.
Last year I was talking to a student who was completly convinced that the US was the worst in the history of man in the torture business. He couldn’t understand why I was laughing so damn hard.
