A podcaster and her husband were found shot to death in their suburban Seattle home, along with a man who had been suspected of stalking the podcast host for months.
Police had been trying to serve a protection order on Ramin Khodakaramrezaei, 38, before Friday’s killings, but they had been having a hard time locating the truck driver from Texas, Redmond Police Chief Darrell Lowe said. Zohreh Sadeghi, 33, and her husband, Mohammad Milad Naseri, 35, had just received the court order a week earlier.
Sadeghi’s mother called police around 1:45 a.m. Friday after she escaped the home and ran to a neighbor’s house. Officers found Naseri lying on the floor near the door of the home and pulled him outside and saw that he had a gunshot wound. They performed CPR, but he died at the scene. Inside the home, officers found Sadeghi and the suspect dead.“This is the absolute worst outcome for a stalking case. This is every victim, every detective, every police chief’s worst nightmare,” Lowe said at a Friday afternoon media briefing.
Khodakaramrezaei befriended Sadeghi online in a chat room for Farsi speakers looking for jobs in the tech industry in late 2021 after listening to the woman’s podcasts. Lowe said the two met up in person last summer before the contacts escalated into harassing phone calls and threats in the fall.
