Shooter’s Brother: Interview of Joel Ybarra – Everything Law and Order Blog

On June 5, 2014, then-27-year-old Aaron Ybarra of Mountlake Terrace, Washington, opened fire at Seattle Pacific University, killing one person. Ybarra had intentionally gone off of his medication in order to feel his anger at the world. He had scouted the Seattle Pacific University campus, and then returned with a 12-gauge shotgun on the second-to-last day of classes, intent on killing as many people as possible.

Freshman Paul Lee, 19, was fatally shot outside Otto Miller Hall, and then-22-year-old Sarah Williams was critically wounded by a shotgun blast to her chest as she descended a staircase inside. Ybarra had attempted to shoot another female student, but his shotgun misfired and the student ran away. Ybarra was disarmed by Jon Meis, a school safety monitor who confronted Ybarra with pepper spray and tackled him to the ground. A third student, Thomas Fowler, was injured by shotgun pellets during the shooting.

Ybarra was ultimately convicted of premeditated first-degree murder, three counts of attempted first-degree murder and one count of second-degree assault after a trial that lasted approximately one month.

In exclusive interrogation footage published by Real World Police, Ybarra is heard discussing his obsession with with school shootings and admiration of Eric Harris, one of two students responsible for the mass shooting and attempted bombing at Columbine High School in Columbine, Colorado in 1999. On November 16, 2016, Ybarra was sentenced to 112 years in prison.

Many additional interviews associated with this investigation were conducted, and many of those interviews will be posted here. Today’s interview is with Joel Ybarra, Aaron’s brother. In this interview, Joel reveals that Aaron had told him that he had been hearing the voice of Eric Harris urging him to shoot up a school, and speaks of a telephone call that he had with Joel shortly before the tragedy at Seattle Pacific University β€” revealing a portion of the call, and then insisting on keeping the remainder secret by stating that nothing else had been said β€” despite having stated only moments before that there had been more to the call.

  1. The brother and mother bear a big part of the responsibility, lying to the medical professionals just so Aaron wouldn't get locked up, they refused to tell the truth even when Aaron threaten to "end" people. Congrats, Joel and your mom, you manged to keep him out by lying so that he could go thru with his threats, I wish nothing but pain and suffering on you and I hope people at least spit on you where ever you go, if not more.

  2. RWP….it really IS worth taking down, fixing the audio and re-uploading. I'm only 4 mins in and I've wanted to shut it off multiple times. So now I'm going to. Hopefully I can find this elsewhere.

  3. Something that's always baffled me, and my brother has this issue, is that just because people have these conditions where they hear voices why do they feel compelled to follow what the voices say? I mean, I guess it's part of the condition and I'm trying to ask for a rational answer to a mental illness but it's just what has baffled me about it.

  4. His brother is a piece of shit too. Didn’t tell anyone that his brother wanted to shoot up a school?? He’s no better than him. Should be locked right up along with him
