DailyKenn.com — 26-year-old Jean Thomas Butchart was fatally shot in a Belleville, MI trailer park.

Matthew Torrey Tiggs Jr., 22, was arrested.

"Tiggs is charged in a crime spree that began in the Van Buren Estates mobile home park. He is accused in the fatal shooting of a 26-year-old person; the non-fatal shooting of a 47-year-old man; and the assault of a 45-year-old man," according to macombdaily.com.

He was arraigned on nine felony charges, including second-degree murder and assault with intent to murder.

Butchart planned to become a school teacher, but his life was cut short when Tiggs shot him in the head during a days-long terror spree in the Van Buren Estates mobile home park.

A 47-year-old resident survived multiple gunshot wounds attributed to Tiggs.

Tiggs was earlier sentenced to serve two years of probation for carrying a concealed a weapon. He was discharged “without improvement” in 2021.

"[H]is father, Matthew T. Tiggs, was sentenced in 2000 of serving 28 years in prison on a charge of assault with intent to commit murder. He has since been paroled," the report says.

Both the prosecutor and local residents said Tiggs ‘terrorized’ the mobile home park, the report said.

The terror caused by individuals in situations like this demand the review of fair housing laws. Is is fair to force decent people to live in neighborhoods with a criminal-class people?
