SACRAMENTO COUNTY, Calif. (USA Today) – A man who police say shot & killed his 3 daughters and their chaperone Monday at a church in Sacramento County, California, was out on bail at the time of the shooting, according to information released Tuesday.
David Mora, 39, was arrested last week on several charges, including assaulting a police officer. Mora was under a domestic violence restraining order & not supposed to have a gun under California law.
Mora fatally shot his daughters, aged 9, 10 & 13 Monday evening, officials said. Authorities said he also killed 59-year-old Nathaniel Kong, who was the chaperone for the visitation.
The shooting was a "domestic violence incident," according to the Sacramento County Sheriff's Office.
Business records show Kong had been an executive in the church. He also served Mora with a restraining order in May 2021, which stipulated the father only have supervised visits with his daughters for up to 4 hours per week with a mutually agreed-upon chaperone. Mora also was required to take anger management courses.
Mora, who also was identified as David Fidel Mora Rojas in court papers, was taken into custody for a mental health evaluation last April 17. Mora's estranged girlfriend & mother of the 3 girls filed the domestic violence restraining order against him in April 2021.
The order says the mother was afraid for her life & that Mora had threatened to kill her if he caught her cheating.
Only days before shooting, Mora was arrested in Merced County, California on charges of resisting arrest, battery on a police officer & driving under the influence after he allegedly assaulted a California Highway Patrol officer.
